A New Job for Old Shoes
If your old shoes are not nice enough to donate to a second-hand clothing store, they can be recycled into a material that soaks up oil spills! Shoes of any type can be dropped off at the Bloomington and Maple Grove REI stores (but not Roseville) or at Wipers Recycling in Maplewood. Another option is Nike Grind, which accepts athletic shoes to make sport and playground surfaces.
