Central Ohio launches pilot recycling program to give clothes a second life

UPPER ARLINGTON, Ohio (WCMH) -- Ripped, stained and worn-out clothes usually end up in a landfill. But a new local recycling pilot program could give them a second life.

The Solid Waste Authority of Central Ohio (SWACO) is spearheading the effort along with partners across Franklin County. 

The pilot is the first of it's kind in the state. According to leaders, if all goes well, it could lead to permanent textile recycling sites in central Ohio.
