Better Earth Textile Recycling (BETR) is a green, for-profit organization working throughout Southeastern Wisconsin to reduce textile waste by finding new life for old clothes. Through community programs, clothing drives, business initiatives and other innovative collection efforts, we bring unwanted clothing, belts, shoes and other textiles to people in need around the world. By putting these discarded items back in the use cycle, we keep them out of landfills and help to conserve the earth’s precious natural resources.

Our businesses partnerships are good for the planet!
Better Earth Textile Recycling (BETR) partners with other area businesses to help keep textiles out of landfills. Check out this video from our partner JDog Junk Removal and Hauling, which mentions BETR at the 2:14 minute point.
Better Earth Textile Recycling (BETR) has expanded!
We added a new, large capacity Fleetliner diesel truck with a power liftgate to our existing fleet of 16 and 26 ft. box trucks. This new vehicle gives us far greater hauling capacity.
BETR has also increased our warehouse space to more than 10,000 square feet. We have a baler, scale and fork truck onsite.
And BETR now services the Fox Valley and Green Bay regions.
