I sent an email to "help" (at symbol) fordays.com, got an automated response saying the someone would respond within 48 hours, then a real person did. She said "Let me know if there’s anything else I can help with—I’m happy to assist!" on November 7th, 2025, and I sent a follow up question. It's now November 14th, 2025 and I've sent 2 additional emails to remind them for a response.

Too bad you can't use the trashie cash on more take back bags like you used to be able to. Maybe I don't want to get involved with the hassle of only $20 spending allowed at a time, therefore buying extra crap I have to pay the difference on that I don't want; contributing to the very landfill I was trying to avoid.

I really have loved For Days’ goals, and so I am conflicted with this review. I started using their take back bags in April 2023, and I loved them. It was so wonderful to be able to trust a company to take care of the ripped and old clothing that I couldn’t thrift or re-sell, knowing it wouldn’t end up in a landfill. At first, once you bought and returned a bag, you would get $20 dollars to use on their own and partnered products. I bought some great shirts, and had a fine experience with customer service and returning items that didn’t fit well. I was looking forward to purchasing a sweater that I really wanted, and have saved about $300 in trashie cash to do so. However, they recently changed how customers can use their trashie cash, in order to make the project more financially sustainable for themselves. After their change, customers can only spend up to $20 of trashie cash on each purchase, and so I will be ultimately having to spend a lot of money on new clothes (that I really don’t need) in order to use all the money I have saved up— most everything on their website (including their partners) is way over $20. I thought I could buy a few hand towels for $20 dollars each in separate orders… but then I have to pay for separate shipping, obviously… Anyways…. For Days has great ideas. But I can’t figure out how it makes sense financially for the customers anymore, for I no longer feel like buying take back bags is a financially beneficial decision for me. Their clothes are great, in my opinion, and I appreciate their desire to join in the goal of lowering the amount of clothing that enters landfills, but buying more take back bags will ultimately just cost me more money than it’s worth in the end.

I love the idea, but I think it’s a scam now that they partnered with Trashie. Trashie doesn’t let you redeem you credit, partners with unsustainable brands, and never responds to inquiries. I’ve reached out 5 times and never one response. Unfortunately another green initiatives now turned scam. It's been a month since their response and still no outreach or follow up on the issues. Hard to trust when there is NO communication...

I am incredibly disappointment with my experience. I only received part of my order. Over a month later I was informed that another part of my order had sold out and I could either size up or exchange, I replied the same day but I didn't hear back for several weeks again saying that the larger size had also sold out. Of course it did! There were weeks between interactions, how would a fast selling item still be in stock? So of course they only give closet cash as a return, which the previously lifted $20 per order cap at the time of my order has been reinstated. Now I can't even order a similar replacement. There are only about 5 items on the site under $20. It may not *technically* be a scam, but they are clearly poorly managed and in over their heads. There is also no detailed information on how the Take Back Bags are processed. A very promising concept poorly executed.

I absolutely love this recycling concept, but the Customer Service is really poor in my experience, unfortunately. I ordered a Rainbow 3-pack on November 29th and paid $60. I received an empty envelop - it had become unsealed in shipping and contained no take-back-bags. I have emailed for help repeatedly, and finally got a response on December 12. I was told my order would be resent, but to date, I have received only 2 of the 3 take-back-bags I ordered and paid for. It’s impossible to get a response from Customer Service. I am still owed 1 bag, and would appreciate some help. Order #: 333306

Items are too expensive for the customers they are trying to attract, they are not size inclusive, and this Trashie program they are using now for their Closet Cash is straight trash. They say you can trade your points in for places like Amazon or DoorDash, but when you go to cash out there is nothing available. Ridiculous. They only get two stars because I do love their mission and the Take Back bags are a great idea and a practice that I wish more retailers would do.

I contacted For Days within a week of receiving my items to return one of the items. I received a reply that they were reaching out to the company that made the item to initiate a return. After 10 days of silence, I reached out again; they said they hadn't heard back from the company. Two weeks later, I reached out again, and have not heard back since, forcing me to open a dispute with my credit card. A very frustrating experience -- even though I dealt with the For Days company, they are essentially passing off responsibility to another company and leaving me with no recourse.
