Cycla
Cycla works with local thrift stores to bring your reusable clothes, shoes and accessories a new life in new hands. Cycla LLC, established in 2007, is a women-owned, multi-generational business specializing in secondhand wholesale clothing and textile recycling. With over 80 years of combined experience, we provide customized global solutions and are committed to giving back through donations and repurposing efforts.
Cycla doesn't only collect your old t-shirts and jeans—they're orchestrating a rescue operation for textiles. Founded by women who grew up in the thrift store business, they know exactly how to give your clothes the best second life possible. Cycla connects your textiles to a network of buyers and sellers, prioritizing US-based thrift stores and then an eco-friendly global network to minimize waste. And those plastic Ridwell bags you fill with reusable clothes and shoes? Cycla sends them straight to Trex to become decking! Also a philanthropic organization endorsing a range of local and international causes, Cycla isn’t just managing textile waste—they're reimagining what's possible when we think beyond the landfill.
