So it is bad to take these bags of clothes that were going to be trashed???

Absolutely NO WAY! You are WONDERFUL for putting your feelings of pride aside for those who will greatly benefit from receiving these clothes.

umm there are three or four more bags of clothes. LOL should i get them? The clothes aren't torn or worn out. What I have so far is really nice stuff... oh dear me... what have i become lol... but it is the thought of giving them to folks that need them that counts.. i hate seeing good stuff thrown out

GO GET THEM!!!! If I were there, I would do it for you. I have no shame when it comes to helping out like that.

To me, it really would be a waste...

Anyway, maybe it will show your neighbours that there is incredible value to what you did, and maybe next time, they will not be so wasteful in the future.

Funny story: I recently went across the street and asked the homeowners, who were throwing out a perfectly good metal settee, if I could have it (will go great in the garden). The neighbour laughed as he told me that he had just asked another neighbour for the futon they had just thrown out to replace the settee he was throwing out!
