By choosing The Solo Bag, you’re making a simple yet powerful contribution to a cleaner planet, proving that even small actions can add up to big change.

About Retold Recycling
Retold Recycling was founded in 2020 by friends and former colleagues Alan Yeoh and Amelia Trumble, two Australians based in California who shared a passion for sustainability. Together, they set out to make textile recycling effortless and accessible for everyone.
What makes Retold unique is that it was built solely for textile recycling, not as an add-on to retail or resale. Their simple system is designed for convenience: order a compostable bag, fill it with your clean and dry unwanted clothing or fabric, and drop it in the mail. From there, every item is carefully sorted to be reused, donated, repurposed, or recycled, never sent to landfill.
Since launching, Retold has already diverted hundreds of tons of textiles from landfill and continues to grow a passionate community dedicated to creating a landfill-free future, #NoLandfill.
