Coathangers

[JenR 0]

I've got loads of coathangers to get rid of. Does anyone know if charity shops are taking them at the moment? If not, does anyone know where I can recycle coathangers? I'd prefer to not chuck them in the bin.

recycle at the various  centres ,like heeley farm,tesco,morrisons ect,worth a call to charities as well,nice to see some thought put into recycling ect,better than land fill thats for sure.

@bassett one thank you for your response. I'll try the recycle centres. I agree that recycling then is better than them ended up in landfill. I wish retailers would give you options not to have the hangers when you buy from them. Some do but some just give you them automically which is annoying.

They have a coat hanger recycling bin at Sainsburys at Wadsley Bridge near the check-outs - not sure about other sites.

Why not just tell them you don't want them?

I always take them out and leave them on the counter. Something which anyone can do.

If I’m in a shop I do this but when I’ve ordered online I haven’t had an option to say I don’t want the hangers.

I do when I’m in a shop but when I receive online orders they send the items on hangers. There’s not an option with online orders to say I don’t want the hangers.
