The Northeast's largest clothing bin network.
We place, empty and look after clothing bins at shopping centers, schools, firehouses and town lots across New York, New Jersey, Connecticut and Pennsylvania. Hosts get a full year's rent up front. Their neighbors get an easy place to drop the clothes they don't wear anymore.
In 1993 we collected 50,000 pounds of clothing. This year it will be more than 60 million.
Bruce Binler started ART in Great Neck and still runs it with his son, David. When you call us, you're talking to the people who own the company. We handle every bin from delivery to insurance to the last bag on the ground, and we've worked that way for 33 years.
Every bin also raises money for the school, police department or charity whose name is on it. Since 1993 that has added up to more than $25 million.
You give us one parking space. We handle the rest.
We pick the spot with you
Usually one parking space that's easy to reach and out of the way. The bin arrives with your name, or a charity you choose, on the front. Installation is free.
Emptied three times a week
Our drivers clean around the bin on every visit. Call us about anything and someone is on the way within the hour. We also install solar cameras, at our cost, to stop dumping.
Paid for the year, up front
You get a full year's rent at the start, plus tonnage reports you can use for federal recycling credits and diversion goals.
A bin in a parking lot keeps clothes out of the trash.
Americans throw away about 11.3 million tons of textiles a year. We've spent 33 years making it easier to drop clothes in a bin than in the garbage.
Hosted by police, fire departments, schools and charities in four states.
Landlords, schools, first responders and towns.
Landlords
One parking space, a year's rent paid up front, and a bin we keep clean so your tenants never have to think about it.

Steady money for programs that doesn't depend on bake sales or volunteers.
Police, fire & charities
PBAs, PALs, EMS squads and fire departments raise money all year without running a single drive.
Municipalities
Free clothing drop-off for residents, lower disposal costs, and tonnage numbers for your recycling reports.
