Rag Bags: Sustainable Cleaning Rags for Local Businesses
From Waste to Work - Rags With a Purpose
Not all donated items can go onto our shop floor or into Caring Kits. But that doesn’t mean they go to waste. We turn unsellable clothing and linen into affordable Rag Bags - handy packs of cleaning rags for businesses, tradies, mechanics, cleaners, and workshops. Every Rag Bag you buy saves textiles from landfill and supports our community-focused programs.

Closing the Loop
Every week, tonnes of textiles are dumped into landfill in Australia.
By buying our Rag Bags, you’re part of the solution - giving discarded fabrics a second life, reducing waste, and supporting local people in need.
"We use Mend & Make Do's Rag Bags in our workshops because they're affordable, effective, and it feels good knowing the money supports a great cause."
