Each year, millions of pounds of clothing end up in landfills - but together we can help change that! Donating, purchasing new-to-you items at a thrift store, and upcycling are some of the easiest ways to help save our planet.

As a leader in clothing care, LG is shining a light on textile waste through LG Second Life - a campaign designed to inspire others to help give their clothing a “second life.’ Whether it’s donating through the Second Life Tour or cleaning out your closets with thredUP x LG Clean Out Kits, LG aims to help decrease our collective fashion footprint.

Because caring for what you wear, means caring for our planet.

LG Takes the Good on the Road


Our LG Second Life van is coming to a city near you!

At stops around the country, our LG Van is accepting your donated apparel and offering you the chance to exchange it for a new-to-you item for your wardrobe.
