Bag2Charity has been collecting donated clothing and household items from doorsteps across Durham since 2023. Whether you live in the city centre, the surrounding villages, or the wider County Durham area, booking a free charity collection in Durham takes less than two minutes and costs you absolutely nothing.
Durham residents have been using the service to clear out unwanted clothing and household items while supporting charities that matter to them, all without leaving the house.
Booking a free charity clothes collection in Durham is simple. Visit our Durham collection page, enter your postcode to confirm availability, choose your preferred charity partner, and select a collection date. On your chosen day, leave your filled bags or boxes on your doorstep and our team will collect them. You do not need to be at home.
We collect a wide range of items from Durham addresses including adult clothing, children's clothing, baby clothes, shoes, handbags, belts, scarves, hats, accessories, curtains, towels, bed linen, and bric-a-brac such as books, toys, kitchenware, ornaments, and small household goods. All items must be clean, dry, and in good condition.
When you book a free Bag2Charity collection in Durham, you choose which registered charity receives the proceeds from your donated items. Our current charity partners include Wendy's Wish, Fighting Ependymoma, Human Appeal, Funzi and Bodo Trust, Children's Air Ambulance, Your Local Air Ambulance, Kidney Research Yorkshire, Ragdolls UK, and SNOOP, the Special Needs Objective Outreach Project.
Each partner is a registered UK charity doing important work across a range of causes from rare cancer research to disability support, air ambulance services, and international humanitarian aid. Your donated clothing helps generate a contracted monthly payment to your chosen charity.
The UK sends an estimated 300,000 tonnes of clothing to landfill every year. Durham, like every city and town across the country, contributes to that figure. Booking a free charity clothes collection is one of the simplest and most effective ways to change that.
Wearable items donated through Bag2Charity are baled and exported to second hand clothing markets across Europe and Africa, extending the life of your clothes and providing affordable options for people who need them. Items that are no longer wearable are recycled into other materials rather than going to waste. Nothing is thrown away unnecessarily.
Our free doorstep collection service covers Durham city and a wide range of surrounding postcodes across County Durham. Whether you are in Belmont, Bowburn, Brandon, Carrville, Chester-le-Street, Consett, Crook, Easington, Ferryhill, Framwellgate Moor, Newton Aycliffe, Peterlee, Sacriston, Seaham, Sherburn, Spennymoor, Stanley, or elsewhere in the Durham area, we can collect from your address. Enter your postcode on our booking page to confirm availability.
