Hello there, I work for a social enterprise in Glasgow Scotland, and we currently have an excess amount of clothing donated to us.

We are currently sell clothing in our shops, as well as online platforms such as Vinted as a way for them to get a second life and not just thrown away into landfill, as well as care packages for our local community. We also usually are able to give bags of clothing to countries like Africa for those in need of them. However, the current places we use, are at full capacity, as no one is able to send overseas, so we're at a gridlock right now with our storage unit becoming full.

We were wondering what other charities and social enterprises are doing with their excess clothing and rags? There appears to be a distinct lack of companies accepting donations! Anyone else bursting at the seams?

Is there any other way for us to shift clothing in a quick manner? Any help would be appreciated 😄

EDIT: Thank you everyone for the suggestions, I would like add I am talking about 1000s of bags of clothing, and people are bringing them to us, as surrounding areas aren't taking donations atm. Also things like homeless shelters are asking for specifics but we just don't have the staff or time to sort through and look out specifics.
