If it's in good condition, sewing thread could be sold online, taken to a charity shop or given away on Freecycle (opens in a new window) or Freegle (opens in a new window).

If the thread is not reusable, it can be deposited in one of north London's on-street textile collection banks or taken to a reuse and recycling centre (RRC) where it will be sorted and recycled.

 Renée Materials (opens in a new window), based in north London, collects and sells high quality reclaimed materials. They have two hubs where you can drop off the following items:

  • Brochures
  • Magazines
  • Wallpaper (full rolls)
  • Candle wax
  • Fabrics
  • Wool (for knitting)
  • Yarn or thread
  • Craft materials
