It is in all our interests to recycle as much as we can. The position of a clothing bank within a car park or recycling site can critically affect its usage.

For the best results ensure that:

• it is visible
  
• the collection vehicle can empty it easily
  
• there is plenty of room so that donors can park close by
  
• it has easy access
  
• if possible it should be lit at night

Banks that meet these criteria work well.
