Grades that mean the same thing every time
Our grade definitions are published on this site, not described over the phone. What we call sorted this month is what we called sorted last month, and what you receive is what the specification says.
You see the product before you ask
Every product on this site is photographed as it actually leaves our floor — opened bales, paired shoes, loaded pallets. No stock imagery, and nothing hidden behind an inquiry form.
Every load documented before it ships
We photograph and video the goods and the loading of the container, and send the file to you before the doors are sealed.
Sourced directly in the United States
We buy at source from Thrift stores, non-profit organizations and private collectors. A shorter chain means better selection and no surprises about where the goods came from. Used Clothing and Used Shoes wholesale exporters.
Houston is a port city
We load a short drive from the Port of Houston, which shortens the road leg on every container and keeps inland haulage off your invoice.
You deal with a person, not a queue
One contact from first inquiry to arrival, reachable on WhatsApp in English, Spanish and French. Most buyers hear back the same working day.
Shipping to Importers Worldwide
Toro Textile Recycling containers move to markets across Africa, Central America, South America and the Caribbean, South and Southeast Asia, Eastern Europe and the Middle East. We know which grades sell in which market — a tropical-climate buyer and a Northern European buyer should not be quoted the same load — and we will tell you plainly if what you have asked for is the wrong product for your market.
Regularly shipping to: Central America, Africa, South America, Asia, Middle East.
How Ordering Works
Five steps from first message to a container on the water. Most buyers complete a first order in 5-7 days.

Send your market, product, grade and volume. If you are not sure which grade suits your market, describe what sells on your stall and we will recommend.

Price per pound / kilogram or per bale, quantity, total weight, Incoterms and estimated freight to your port.
Inspect before you commit
Photographs and video of the actual goods. Buyers within reach of Houston, Texas are welcome to inspect in person.
Confirm and pay
Terms are 50% advance to start processing the load and balance paid in full at the time of loading. We issue a proforma invoice on confirmation and invoice on completion.
We load and document
We load, photograph and seal the container, then send your complete document set. Typical loading time after cleared payment is 5-7 business days.
Reuse First
Every bale we ship is clothing, footwear and household goods that stay in use instead of going to landfill. Reuse is the highest-value outcome for a used textile and the reason this trade exists: the goods move to markets where they are wanted, priced within reach, and used until they are used up. We grade for wearability first because a garment that sells is a garment that gets used.
