What do I do with my wire hangers?

Everyone is bound to have some wire hangers around their home at some point, the question is....

What do I do with them if I don't want them???

1. You can check with your local recycling center but many do not accept wire hangers. You can remove the cardboard and/or paper from the hangers and recycle that at least.

2. Many thrift stores will gladly take them off of your hands such as Goodwill or The Salvation Army.  Be sure to call your local branch before you head there with all your hangers because not all locations accept them and we don't want them to end up in the landfill :-)

Some local thrift stores in Savannah, GA that accept wire hangers are Blessingdales, Thrift, Gift, and Furniture, and The Old Savannah City Mission.

If there is a thrift or consignment store that you frequent, don't be afraid to ask them if they would like your wire hangers (provided they sell clothes).

3. Check with the dry cleaners in your area, lets face it many of them probably came from the dry cleaners anyways. Many dry cleaners will welcome them so just drop them off with your dry cleaning the next time you go.

Any other ideas that I may have missed....please feel free to leave a comment below

These are great tips for your wire hangers. I always feel so guilty throwing them in the trash.

Good idea! I have a stack ready to pitch but will definitely add it to my donation pile.

I've also seen hangers repurposed to hang scarfs in the closet.

yes that is a great way to repurpose! I've also seen it used for ribbon to go with your gift wrapping stash

Yay! Glad to save them from going to the landfill...their impact on the environment is not good so is it great to repurpose them :-)
