Looking for a favour from anyone who may live in this area by chance? Just to drive past a business to see if it still exists? Reply to this message | Report message

Well assumed you had thought of it - and not answering could mean they are no longer trading. So I guess your drive past request. How about phoning a local taxi company and paying them to do it? Or ask another business nearby if they know they are open/trading. Could it just be they have a summer shutdown? Obviously without any of us knowing what business it is we cannot help. Unless we do have someone close by which I doubt. Via the Woodhead pass the centre of Horbury is 43 miles from me. If I was going that way I'd swing past for you but nothing planned...

Knowing it's textile recycling and your line of work I assume you send garments etc. to them. Why don't you try contacting one of the directors? Although they all have their contact address as the same place in Dartford. Last edited by: rtj70 on Thu 30 Aug 18 at 23:14 Reply to this message | Report message

There's a LinkedIn page for the MD I think. Cash4Clothes.... but also a mobile: uk.linkedin.com/in/recycle4riches/lt Forget that the linked website there does not work. A bit suspicious to me. Last edited by: rtj70 on Thu 30 Aug 18 at 23:29 Reply to this message | Report message

From Google maps Give PM auto boy repairs a call ( motoring link ) ?. They seem to be just across the road from what might be the office and might help. P.S. the only review there ★★★★★ 2 years ago Avoid if you can, 50 kgs of clothing for £23.20 not worth it at all there are better places that pay 70 pence per kgs don't bother with this place.

Most charity shops bag up clothes and sell by the kg. I even tried to get some from local shops to take for refugees coming to Greece but they would not help. They said they sell by the bag what they cannot sell in store. Reply to this message | Report message

From Google Street View in 2015.... that don't look like an operation that is doing anything. But they did move the registered office to Dartford. Reply to this message | Report message

This was the premises. On the picture the building is shown as Holk Manufacturing Ltd. Clearly signed now as RGN Textiles. There is a security gate on the approach to this part of the estate just behind the camera. When you go to satellite image ts is more up to date and shows the area as it appears now. www.google.co.uk/maps/@53.6552889,-1.5387377,3a,75y,317.77h,92.05t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1s6VKS1k3PPtKHGq7bsBCz7w!2e0!7i13312!8i6656?hl=en&authuser=0 Last edited by: Fullchat on Sun 2 Sep 18 at 16:47 Reply to this message | Report message

Cheers Fullchat for going out of your way to do that. I really appreciTe that random act of kindness! Interesting that they appear to be operational yet not answering any phones, office or mobile, or emails. Still nothing official on any registers to say they are having financial problems but I know several charities are chasing them for monies. Thanks again. Reply to this message | Report message
