Critics about public containers for used clothes:

︎︎︎Lack of transparency:
It can be difficult to know what happens to the clothes once they are donated. Some organizations may sell them for profit instead of distributing them to those in need.
︎︎︎Harmful effects on local markets:
The donation of large amounts of used clothing to developing countries can have a negative impact on local markets by undercutting local producers and disrupting the local textile industry.
