Fundación Humana has informed the La Pobla de Claramunt City Council of its decision to terminate the used clothing collection service in the municipality, effective November 20th, citing economic reasons.

Fundación Humana has notified the La Pobla de Claramunt City Council of its decision to terminate the used clothing collection service it provided in the municipality. According to the company, the measure responds to "the current market situation, which has led to a loss of profitability".

Following this notification, the City Council is already working to find a new operator to provide this used clothing collection service in the municipality. In this regard, it has already contacted other operators to evaluate possible alternatives that will allow the service to continue and maintain this selective textile waste collection option in La Pobla.
The City Council will inform citizens of any updates and possible alternatives as soon as a solution is finalized.
