Until Tooused, your options for getting rid of old clothes in India were limited — and none of them gave you groceries back.

Everything You Need to Know
Can I exchange old clothes for groceries in India?
Yes — Tooused is currently the only platform in India that lets you exchange old clothes for groceries. You schedule a free doorstep pickup, your clothes are assessed individually through a 12-point quality inspection, and Tooused credits land in your account within 24–48 hours. You redeem those credits for rice, dal, oil, atta, and other daily kitchen staples — or for baby care, laundry products, and 200+ brand vouchers.
What groceries can I get for my old clothes?
Tooused credits are redeemable for 1000+ products across daily essentials: groceries (rice, dal, oil, atta, kitchen staples), baby care (diapers, wipes, baby wash), bath and body (soaps, shampoos, moisturisers), oral care (toothpaste, toothbrushes), laundry (detergents, fabric softeners), kitchen and home cleaning supplies. You can also choose from 200+ brand vouchers across fashion, food, and entertainment.
How many clothes do I need to give to get groceries?
There is no minimum quantity — you can give as few or as many clothes as you want. Tooused assesses each garment individually, so the credits you earn depend on the condition and brand of each item, not on weight or bulk quantity. A single well-maintained branded garment can earn meaningful credits.
Is this different from selling clothes to a kabadiwala?
Yes, significantly. A kabadiwala pays by weight — typically ₹5–15 per kg — regardless of brand or condition. Tooused assesses each garment individually: a Levi's jacket or Allen Solly shirt earns substantially more than it would by the kilo. You also get a scheduled, background-verified doorstep pickup rather than waiting for the kabadiwala to arrive unannounced.

How quickly do I get my groceries after giving clothes?
Tooused credits appear in your account once garments clear the 12-point quality inspection — typically within 24–48 hours of pickup. You can then redeem immediately in the app for groceries and other daily essentials.
Which cities can I exchange old clothes for groceries in?
Tooused operates across 700+ cities in India including Delhi, Gurugram, Noida, Faridabad, Ghaziabad, Greater Noida, Bengaluru, Mumbai, Pune, Hyderabad, Kolkata, Chennai, Jaipur, Lucknow, Ahmedabad, Surat, Nagpur, Agra and hundreds more. Download the app to check live availability in your city.

Tooused accepts almost everything: branded clothes (Levi's, H&M, Allen Solly, Zara), everyday wear (kurtas, shirts, jeans, sarees), kids' clothes and school uniforms, wedding wear (lehengas, sherwanis, suits), woollens, jackets, winter wear, and even bed sheets, curtains, and home textiles. Torn or mildly worn garments are accepted too — they go to certified textile recyclers.
Not accepted: Soiled, wet or mouldy clothes; undergarments; shoes; accessories.
Is Tooused safe and legitimate?
Yes. Tooused is operated by Letfly Direct Technologies Private Limited, a registered Indian company. All pickups are conducted by background-verified logistics partners. Tooused has processed over 10 lakh garments and maintains full documentation on 95% of transactions. The platform has over 4 lakh users across India.
