Three textile prices are shown here. The textile bank price reflects the amount that may be paid to a local authority, usually by a collector or charity for material from textile banks. The payment may be amended if the local authority has to pay a bank hire fee or an element of the collection costs which have risen this year because of increased fuel costs.

The price for charity rags is for material, usually well-presented, delivered to the factory of a larger textile collecting business, and includes transport costs. The shop collections price is the amount paid by a collector to a charity shop for clothes the shop has not sold to the public directly.
