Step 1: Fill up a box or bin with your kids’ gently used items. We buy clothes, shoes, costumes, toys, books, and baby gear! Any container works (no need to get fancy), and don’t worry — we’ll give it back to you.
Step 2: Bring everything into Once Upon A Child and drop it off right at the counter.
Step 3: While our team sorts through your items, feel free to shop, browse, or even run a quick errand. We’ll check each item for quality and choose what we think will sell best in the store.
Step 4: Once we’re finished, we’ll text you — then you can swing back up and collect your payment!
That’s it — simple, quick, and so easy. See you soon!
