What can I do with my cloth nappies now they are not needed

Obviously it would be an outrage to bin them. I have about two dozen terry squares and half a dozen mothereze wraps. There's no nappy swappable collective type thing in these parts. Shall I put them in the textile recycling?

There is a charity that sends them to orphanages abroad...google them. I sent my old ones there. Can't remember the name though

My dad used them as great window clothes apparently lol

That's a wonderful idea but would cost a fortune in postage.

I did think they would make good hand towels but I want rid ideally.

Freecycle!

Get creative?

list them on ebay/freecycle/gumtree/baby swap or shop/local selling pages on Facebook etc as free to good home if buyer collects or covers postage cost.or use the towelling as window rags/textiles recycling bank as last resort - I'm sure someone would be grateful for them!

I send nappies to an orphanage in Zambia - Kasisi Orphange. I would think that a parcel that size would probably be around £7.50 to post.

You send them to a uk based charity and they send them abroad. You only cover postage to them hereSmile

try selling at a National Childbirth Trust (NCT) sale. Sale season for spring is upon us so you'll have to move quickly! Google NCT to find one in your area.

You won't be able to sell used nappies on Ebay - they changed the rules a while back. But there is a website called www.usednappies.co.uk which works in very much the same way as Ebay.

And there is cloth nappy tree.
Or you can sell them on here. What size are your wraps? I know someone in need of some wraps!

Chubfuddler · 26/03/2012 17:52

I've got small and medium motherese wraps - you're welcome to them if you pm me.

Thank you Smile

Chubfuddler · 26/03/2012 21:27
