The Take Back Bag™
$40
We’re making recycling uncomplicated. You’re welcome.
It’s easy: Order a Take Back Bag™. Clear out your closet. Send your filled bag to For Days. Done. You’ll earn $40 in Nation credit for every Take Back Bag™ ordered. The funds never expire, and can be used on your next order. (Yes, really.)
85% off all textiles end up in landfills, and the average American throws out roughly 80lbs of clothes a year. Most items in your Take Back Bag will be responsibly upcycled or downcycled so nothing goes to waste.
What we love
- Each bag diverts up to 15lbs of fashion waste from landfills, and saves 92lbs of CO2 emissions from the lower atmosphere.
- 50% of the items sent are downcycled (repurposed into insulation, rags, stuff like that), 45% are resold and upcycled.
What we don't
- 5% of items are actual trash and discarded.
Don’t hesitate to donate old clothes because we accept all apparel in any condition (from any brand). Ripped, torn, stained, whatever. As long as it’s clean, not a fabric scrap, or non-clothing item, we’ll take it.
50% post-consumer recycled content, fully recyclable.
Scan the QR code on your bag for shipping instructions. The easiest option is to drop off your Take Back Bag at any Happy Returns location. Alternatively, you can print a mailing label for UPS. The QR code on your bag and the Happy Returns QR code are different.
Happy Returns Process:
-
Scan and Register Your Bag: Customers will scan the QR code on their Take Back Bag, log in, and enter their address to register the bag as usual.
-
Choose Your Shipping Method: Happy Returns will be shown as the first option, with UPS also available if the user clicks "Show More Options."
-
Find the Closest Location: Happy Returns will display the nearest UPS Store return bar locations based on the customer’s address (more locations coming soon).
-
QR Code Generation: A QR code will be generated and emailed to the customer for them to use when dropping off their bag at any UPS Happy Returns return bar location.
-
Drop Off: At the UPS Happy Returns return bar, the customer’s QR code will be scanned to complete the drop-off.
That’s it! The process is quick, easy, and hassle-free
