  • So far, For Days has saved 3M pounds of clothing from landfill, 24 million pounds of C02, and 3.2 million gallons of water through its Take Back program.
  • We accept all apparel items and socks, underwear, sheets, pillow cases, towels, linens, shoes, and handbags in any condition. Ripped, torn or stained, your oldies will get a new life with the help of our recycling partners and be diverted from landfills.
  • Scan the QR code on your bag for shipping instructions. The easiest option is to drop off your Take Back Bag at any Happy Returns location. Alternatively, you can print a mailing label for UPS. The QR code on your bag and the shipping QR code are different.
  • The price of the Take Back Bag covers the shipping costs to you and sending your filled Take Back Bag back to us.

Happy Returns Process:

  • Scan and Register Your Bag: Customers will scan the QR code on their Take Back Bag, log in, and enter their address to register the bag as usual.
  • Choose Your Shipping Method: Happy Returns will be shown as the first option, with UPS also available if the user clicks "Show More Options."
  • Find the Closest Location: Happy Returns will display the nearest UPS Store return bar locations based on the customer’s address (more locations coming soon).
  • QR Code Generation: A QR code will be generated and emailed to the customer for them to use when dropping off their bag at any UPS Happy Returns return bar location.
  • Drop Off: At the UPS Happy Returns return bar, the customer’s QR code will be scanned to complete the drop-off.
  • The Take Back Bag fits 15 lbs of fashion waste and measures 24 in x 24 in.

  • 85% of ALL textiles end up in landfills and the average American throws away 80lbs of clothing a year. That includes resale, recycling, and donation efforts.

  • 74% of what we take back is sorted and graded for reuse.
  • 15-22% of what we take back goes to fiber recycling: For items that don’t meet quality standards for reuse, we utilize fiber recycling technology to keep as much as possible in-use and out of the landfill.
  • 5-10% of all Take Back Bag items are sadly, truly trash (think: plastic hangers), and sent to a responsibly managed landfill.
  • You'll earn $30 in Closet Cash for every Take Back Bag ordered. These funds never expire and can be used on your next order of clothing and accessories on trashio.io.
