FAQ

where is the service available?

Currently we are able to handle pickups from addresses in Brooklyn, Queens and Manhattan.

If you're elsewhere in the Greater New York City area and are interested in organizing a pickup in your community (school, building, office, etc.) please reach out to us here!

If you live elsewhere, check out our mail in option!

how does scheduling work?

We'll reach out to schedule your pickup within about one week of your request.

Please note that pickups are during business hours. They can be left at a secure location for us to pickup, or we can meet you at your door.

what items can I include?

You can include baby and children's items up to size 8 of any season in the following categories:

  • clothing
  • outerwear
  • footwear

Items should be clean and in good condition, free of rips, stains or other major wear.

how do I get the discount?

You will receive a 15% discount if we accept 15+ articles of clothing to restyle into our signature mini capsules.

Items that count towards the discount minimum are:

  • clean
  • in good condition (no stains, rips or excessive wear)
  • in season
  • in broadly appealing styles
  • made mostly or entirely of natural fibers

The discount will be emailed to eligible families within 1 - 2 weeks of the pickup.

do you accept off season items?

Yes!

They just don't count towards the discount because of the costs we'll incur to store them or pass them along responsibly.

what happens to items not accepted?

About 5% of traded in items have treatable stains. We are delighted to share that we are able to save most of these for reuse by adding non toxic stain remover, washing in cold water and hanging them to dry.

Items that are in good condition but aren't a match to our style profile will be donated to one of our local NYC charities that provide children's items to families in need.

All outerwear and footwear will be donated or recycled based on condition, as we do not carry those categories at this time.

We recycle textiles that are in poor condition and unfit for reuse.

how is this different than donating to charity?

Don't get us wrong, if you have clean items in good condition that are currently being accepted by a charity you support, we are all for that!

Our mission is to reduce textile waste, and charitable donations are not the blanket solution to that problem. Many charities receive more donations than they can handle, including many items that are unfit for reuse or resale.

Our service is something to consider if at least one of the following applies:

  • you support our mission to reduce textile waste
  • you have great items in good condition from everyday brands with little to no resale value
  • you want to go circular by trading in your items for a discount with us
