What are the responsibilities and job description for the Clothing Collection Driver/Warehouse Material Handler Wanted! - FULL TIME position at HELPSY?
Helpsy’s Mission: We are the largest textile collection company in the Northeast US. Unlike most used clothing businesses we have an environmental mission: to keep clothes out of the trash. In just the last year we collected over 30 million pounds of clothes. The impact of the clothes we collected is the following:
- 320 million pounds of CO₂ emissions
- 20 billion gallons of water
- The electricity usage of 10,000 American homes
We are proud to be a Public Benefit Corporation and a Certified B Corp with an environmental mission. We believe that the tragedy of clothing filling our landfills and incinerators needs to stop.
To fight this battle, we work with partners large and small to place clothing collection containers, schedule collection drives, engage with cities and towns, manage unwanted inventories, and spread the word that CLOTHES AREN’T TRASH.
