Do charities get plenty of new clothes donations that used clothes would be worthless?

I have some used clothes I’m getting rid of, and I’m thinking charities get so many new clothes donated that they would have no use for used clothes, would this be right? I’m trying to decide if I should throw them out or bother to donate them somewhere.

In the past I drove a big rig. I hauled things for the Salvation Army. One load I had was going to Mexico. It was full of used clothes going to be used to make mops in Mexico. The Salvation Army sold the clothes for just a few pennies per pound. Best thing is to find someone that wears the same size and give the clothes to them.
