Disposing of duvets and soft toys

December2012

Can I recycle duvets or children's soft toys?

I'm in Dublin 15, panda are the local bin company, but I think I'm not allowed to put textiles like this in their bins.

I did ring dog shelter and was told they don't take anything stuffed.

Charity shops will take the toys if in good condition

No they won't take them if they're soft. (They did take the plastic ones though!)

Thanks though!

Coolmine Recycling Centre will take it with a charge, €8 for a full boot...

Interesting. Maybe other charities take them? What type of shop did you buy in?

I gave up finding a good home for several clean duvets. Even the dog sanctuary did not want them ( fear of bed bugs ).
