How It Works
Step 1: Gather Your Best
Pack up to three grocery bags of new or like-new baby and children's shoes/clothing for ages newborn through 8Y. Make sure your bags are labeled with your full name.
Tips for success:
- ✓ Current styles
- ✓ No visible wear
- ✓ No stains, holes, odors, excessive pilling, or missing pieces
- ✓ No permanent marker
Step 2: Drop Off or Schedule a Pickup
Stop by our South Orange shop during business hours or schedule a pickup if you're local to South Orange, Maplewood, Millburn, Short Hills, or Livingston, New Jersey.
Step 3: Sit Tight
Our team will carefully review your items and select pieces that fit our current inventory needs.
Because we buy outright, we're very intentional about what we buy and sell.
