About Us

About Us

A family business


Charity Shop Collections is a family run business owned by David and Suzanne Woods and we have over 40 years combined experience in the textile recycling industry.

Our previous textile company was founded in 2001 and steadily progressed to become a strong and efficient workforce. This grew to become a team of 130 dedicated staff members processing over 200,000 tonnes per week.

We sold the company in 2019 and continued as Managing Directors for the new owners until 2022.

Our many years’ experience in the textile recycling industry has enabled us to bring on board a 1st class experienced team who are committed to providing the best service possible.

Committed & Driven


From our recycling warehouse in Manchester all items we collect are segregated, sorted, graded and baled by our experienced staff to produce a useable, sustainable product for re-wear, reuse or recycling.

We are committed to 0% waste and diverting away from landfill.

TRUSTed Support for Charity Shops in the North West


We are a TRUST accredited company.

For Charity Shops with too much stock, unwanted donations, or that just want a clear out, we’ll collect anything that you don’t need. We’ll also make an immediate payment to your Charities Fundraising too.

Regular or one off collections with just one call… ask for Dave or Suzanne, we’ll be more than happy to discuss how we can help support your charity.
