ELIMINATING THE IDEA OF WASTE®

Retail clothing store to put old footwear to use

TerraCycle Old Navy Include USA
One environmentally friendly company is partnering with Old Navy stores nationwide to give communities a chance to turn their trash into treasure and help the environment at the same time. Beginning on Earth Day and continuing through May 21, the green company TerraCycle is collecting ready to be discarded flip-flops at more than 900 Old Navy locations nationwide, including the location in Aiken. TerraCycle will then take the discarded flip-flops, which many people do not realize are very difficult to recycle and would sit in a landfill for a long time, and use the material to create four playgrounds in communities throughout the country.
