The original bags were emptied piece by piece, those pieces in poor condition that did not make the cut were thrown away, and the rest were sorted. Here are some "before and after" photos:
BEFORE: Mass of bags
AFTER: Mass of bags sorted by male/female/tops/bottoms
All done in 2 hours! (That was the easy part, the tough bit was moving the 27 bags from the car up to the sorting room ;) but that's another story)
Most of the sorted clothes will be going directly to the thrift store, while a small portion of clothes were sifted out from the pile to be sold later at a separate location - brand new/ high street/ designer wear (or those too cute to resist) that we expect to be able to sell at slightly higher prices.
Thank you for all the donations so far - do keep them coming!
