Hertsmere Borough Council collected more than a ton of bras, which can now be reused by women in poorer countries.
The Hertfordshire authority has also donated £1,000 to the Breast Cancer Campaign charity, £1 for every kilo collected at eight sites across the area.
Councillor Jean Heywood, Environment Portfolio Holder said: “This really is great news. It’s brilliant that this scheme has been so well supported, thank you to everyone who has taken part.
“By recycling your bras not only will less waste be sent to landfill but women in poorer countries will benefit and you will be helping to fund research into breast cancer.”
