Our Mission

The mission of Springclean is to create jobs and reduce items sent to landfill.

We do this by our commitment to:
Repurpose donated textile material
Educate and train on sustainability
Offer flexible, gig-economy jobs that pay livable wages 

Springclean was founded in 2019 in Charlotte, North Carolina when our founder, CT Anderson, an experienced corporate sustainability professional, noticed limited options to reuse and recycle clothes.

During this time many local organizations began plans to increase economic opportunities in the region, after learning that Charlotte was the lowest among top 50 cities in the US for economic mobility.

Our circular boutique is located at the Circular Economy Innovation Barn in Charlotte, NC, and our data, technology, and operations teams are based around the globe.

Join our efforts to collaborate with successful sustainable fashion and textile recycling organizations to innovate new design models, incubate top talent and strengthen the textile supply chain.

Meet the Team

Jillian Nalley
I have always loved creativity, art, wearable art, imagination, design and sewing. I enjoy making things, of all kinds of mediums and materials. I enjoy recycling, upcycling and re-using items. I enjoy thrift stores, dumpster diving, curb side pick-ups. 

I've prided myself on being a Jill of all trades. Having the ability to do anything from home, fashion and crafts to power tools, power equipment and vehicles of any kind. 
​
I was raised on a farm for the later years of my life, growing a garden, which I still do, raising animals, participating in rodeos, particularly barrel racing and other timed events.  I was enrolled in Horticulture in school, learning and participating in every aspect of plants, farming and was a member of the FFA, Future Farmers of America.
