About
Green Zone Recycling
Recycle Better. Reuse More. Renew the Future.
Green Zone Recycling began as a family company serving communities across the Southeastern U.S. with a vision to transform the way clothing, shoes, and textiles are reused. From those early beginnings, we have grown into the largest textile recycler and wholesale distributor of second-hand apparel and footwear in the region, guided by a commitment to quality, sustainability, and responsible recycling. We are proud to partner with communities, businesses, and global partners to create a trusted network that extends the life of quality textiles, supports a circular economy, and delivers value from collection to reuse.
Our Mission
At Green Zone, we believe in giving clothing and shoes a second life — diverting perfectly usable garments from landfills and returning value to both communities and the environment. We aim to reduce waste, promote circularity, and support a sustainable, responsible fashion ecosystem.
