Sortworthy is a Florida-based startup committed to closing the loop on production by recycling used textiles and shoes into second-hand sellable goods. Founded in 2022 and based in St. Petersburg, Sortworthy partners with a global network of nonprofit organizations, retailers, thrift operators, charity stores, faith-based institutions, logistic companies, and collection agencies to help reduce waste in our communities and landfills. Leveraging an 8R Zero Waste mindset, Sortworthy is changing the discourse around recycling to maximize global impact and reduce the harmful waste impacting the environment. In addition to recycling efforts, Sortworthy offers home pick-up services to residents in Tampa, St. Petersburg, Jacksonville, and Miami. Sortworthy gladly takes their used textiles and shoes off their hands to help create a cleaner future.
