WHAT IS OUR VALET PROGRAM AND PROCESS?

If you want to make some money on your outgrown, unneeded items, but don't have time to tag, enter and consign them yourself, or maybe just have too much stuff and need help getting it back to a manageable pile, our valet team is here to help!

​

After joining, you will be matched with a valet tagger. Our valet taggers have years of experience, up-to-date knowledge of competitive pricing, popular brands and recalls, as well as high sell-through rates! They will guide you every step of the way and make this process a breeze for you!

 

Once you are paired, you will gather all items you wish to sell and schedule a drop off appointment with them. Keep in mind, ALL items need to be clean, in great condition, and have working batteries if applicable. Shoppers are looking for great deals on items that have lots of life left! You can drop off these items in whatever “container” you wish but know it will not be returned. Because of this we recommend using cardboard boxes or trash bags. You are welcome to use plastic bins but again, you will not get these back.

 

Once your tagger receives your items they get right to work! They organize, prep, tag, enter, and deliver your items to and from each of our event. Once each season is over you will be mailed a check with your earnings from both the online & in person sale combined.

 

​

WHAT ARE THE COSTS AND PERKS?

Regardless of what type of consignor you are, the registration fee is the same. For your first sale with us the cost is $25. This covers your portal activation as well as entry in BOTH our online and in person sales. After your first sale, registration is only $15 each season and still covers both the online & in person sales. We also sometimes host pop-up Holiday or Summer online only sales, registration fee for these events are $5 each.

​

**As a valet client you are auto enrolled in each sale. It is up to you to let us know when you’d like to switch to a regular consignor or take a break from consigning. **

​

There is also a 10 cent per active item collected each sale to cover the cost of any supplies used (hanger and packaging supplies, tags and barbs, etc). This is taken directly out of your earnings check at the end of each sale, so no need to pay up front!

 

Our Regular Consignors make a base payout of 60% commission on their sales. As a Valet Consignor you split this payout with your tagger, so you would make 30% of your sales. However, you are able to sign-up for up to 2 shifts each season to max out your earnings to 40%, each shift gets you 5% more payout.

 

Regardless of what type of consignor you are you still get the same perks!

• Early shopping for both our online & in person events

• Consignor Referral Bonuses

• Entry to our Dollar Dash event

• Access to our Facebook community where we have loads of help, giveaways & contests, and the most up to date information for each sale

 

WHAT ITEMS ARE ACCEPTED?

We accept everything from NEWBORN to TEEN, and not just clothing! We also sell books (including popular Women’s chapter books, moms need love too!), shoes, toys, room décor (but please no glass/breakables), sporting goods, infant items/gear, electronic gaming items, boardgames and puzzles, bikes and outdoor play items, etc. As long as the item is children based and in great condition, the list is truly endless. When in doubt just ask your tagger and they can let you know for sure if we accept it.

 

Each item will go through 2 seasons of sales. If the item does not sell on its 2nd go around then it is marked donate and goes towards helping our community and local charity partners (you will be provided with a donation report each season).

 

**This means, once an item goes into our valet program, you do NOT get it back **

FOR CLOTHING/SHOES: You are welcome to drop off any season, any time. Our taggers love getting a headstart on next season! Please keep in mind all clothing needs to be clean, odor & pet hair free, and less than 2-3 years old. Any outfits or sets, should be folded together so your valet tagger knows what goes together.  If items have been in long term storage, please go through them to make sure there is no yellowing (especially infant items), no funky basement smell and that the elastic is good in all pajamas & swimwear. If you pull and hear a crinkle noise, it’s no longer good and should be disposed of.  

 

We do not accept any items that have stains, holes or excessive wear.

 

TOYS/GAMES: Any items that require batteries to work must have working batteries in them at time of drop off.  Toys, especially playsets must have pieces & figures to go with them (ex: imaginext playsets, little people sets, dolhouses etc). We highly recommend bagging these items separately and attaching them to the specific toy. All boardgames & puzzles must include ALL pieces. Any electronic gaming items must be scratch free and include any needed power cords.

 

** Please note that any items you give your tagger that DO NOT meet the KidSense standards (clothing with stains, holes excessive wear, dirty shoes, out-of-date items, items that do not work), items from our not accepted list, and any recalled items will NOT be returned to you. No exceptions! Taggers are instructed to donate or dispose of these items immediately. **
