first time trying it. Ordered 3 bags and one electronics box. cost over $50 dollars. Took forever to arrive. I could have dropped it off locally in a couple hours this took 2 weeks. Also, had issues with one bag I tried to use happy returns and drop st local staples that has happy returns. They don't take it there. have to go to an ups store. that is 30. min from my house. So the gas and that negates any carbon footprint I saved with the bag. I tried to switch it to a shipping label and no option for that. So I emailed the company to change it. They still haven't answered me from 4 days ago. won't be stupid enough to do this again. I have a goodwill a. mile away.

While I appreciate the opportunity to recycle clothing and shoes not worth donating because of their condition, I've found it very difficult to use reward $$$ for anything. Most of the discounts are for expensive things I would never use or are minimum discounts that require large purchases. Why can't I use all of my Trashie dollars on one purchase? I will likely let my Trashie account balance simply...go to the trash. I've been trying to use my $$$ since May 2024. Nothing here for me.

Completely useless rewards. They offer the same coupons that the storefronts give you without you having to purchase a trashie bag. Trashie rewards exchange for a 15% coupon meanwhile the storefront offers the same 15% coupon without a minimum purchase and without you have to purchase a trashie bag. You really are not getting rewarded for recycling. Instead they trick you into giving stuff that you could have just donated or sold. The whole auction thing they had of stuff that was sent to them seemed so scummy. They need to give actual rewards that are a step above the discounts already offered by the storefront. Otherwise you are essentially paying Trashie to recycle for you. Don't waste your money.

I purchased several bags and filled with items that I couldn't sell at a second hand shop. The bags were easy to fill and mail off at the post office. I was excited about the idea of recycling my clothing but I keep wondering what happens when it goes to another country? Does it end up in a landfill there? I received a bunch of "trashie cash" which when i signed up sounded like I would get decent credits for purchases at stores. I did get very small credits to use at obscure stores, but couldn't redeem all my credit at once, so got 10 dollars off one store, which when I ordered from, it was way more expensive than it should have been. The quality was terrible for the price. The "credit" really was more like a coupon. I could have shopped a sale at a store with much better quality without going through the hassle. In the end, I felt like I basically paid Trashie to take my stuff and it isn’t super clear what happens to it at the end of the day.

Crap rewards. Better off taking to Goodwill 😩

Buyer beware @trashie has changed its reward policies. In April you could redeem Trashie cash at 1:1 ratio. Now you spend $20 on a bag, receive $30 in trashie cash and it costs $100 in trashie cash for a $10 gift card.

If you want to pay someone to keep no longer useful clothes out of landfill then you might like this otherwise this is pretty useless. I purchased the three pack so with discount I saved a bit but basically 3 bags is $60.00. You are supposed to earn trashie dollars to buy gift cards and discounts from participating vendors. there are very very few gift cards available. Mostly what is available is for you to get xx amount of $$ off a bigger purchase price... basically the standard flyer discounts most of these vendors send out on a regular basis. For 100 trashie points I could get a $10.00 gift card to sephora or Nike. For my three stuffed bags of clothes I received 80 trashie dollars and I had 10 which I got for the promo when signing up so I have a total of 90 trashie dollars. Why I got 80 I don't know because two bags gave me 30 and one bag only gave me 20. Not sure why. So, for the 60.00 I can't even get a $10.00 gift certificate. Oh they did generously give me a $40.00 off to a company that the cheapest item on their site was $118.00. Wow, thanks Trashie. I'll continue to give my gently worn clothing to local charities. If I really really feel the need to send the totally worn-out stuff out then maybe I won't mind spending the 20 to help the environment but I'm not going to give them the resalable items. And even the return label process has some hiccups. First one was easy and texted me the label. 2nd one I don't know what even happened with that one it wants me to take it somewhere I've never heard of. Third one emailed me a label. I had some back and forth with the folks at Trashie and eventually they even gave me the missing credits so I can if I want to go in and get a $10.00 gift card for either Nike or Sephora if they are still there. I'm not getting to use my third bag as I was never able to sort that out. I stand by the fact that this was not easy, not pleasant and certainly the hype of earning goodies didn't live up to expectations. I'll keep giving to the local charities instead. I wouldn't mind using them to recycle the items that have outlived even their donating value but they are mostly big things like comforters so I'd basically be paying them $20.00 a blanket to recycle it as I'd be hard pressed to fit one of them in a bag. I think it's a great idea but the execution needs some work.

This company is, well, Trashie. I love the idea of it! But I ordered and paid for 6 bags and they sent 3. Then, after following all of the directions, I took two to the post office. The QR codes didn't work - the USPS representative scanned them and said they were unrecognizable. I emailed the company to ask if they could resolve the problem by just sending me mailing labels, and 8 days later I've still received no response. Such a good idea, but I fear this company is a scam.
