If you’ve sorted out some of your worn-out shoes during a tidying session, you’ll want to dispose of them safely. We explain how to do this correctly in this home tip.
Disposing of shoes – the right way to do it
Sort through your old shoes and examine them carefully. If the shoes are really worn out and completely worn down, it is best to dispose of them as follows:
- You can simply dispose of worn-out shoes in the trash can for residual waste.
- Some shoe stores also offer free disposal of old footwear. Ask your local shoe store.
Doing good with old shoes – here’s how
Some shoes no longer fit properly or you simply don’t like them anymore because they’ve gone out of fashion. You don’t have to throw these shoes away straight away. On the contrary, you can do something good with them and even get money for them.
- You can donate old shoes that are still in good condition on the website shuuz.de.
- Shipping is free for you; you will receive a prepaid shipping label.
- With the SHUUZ calculator, you can immediately calculate how much you will receive for your shoes. The price is based on the weight of the shoes. You can either donate the proceeds or keep them.
