Preparing Your Items
A little preparation helps us review your clothing more efficiently.
- Wash and fully dry each item.
- Check clothing in good lighting for stains, wear, and damage.
- Fold items neatly.
- Place them in a clean, manageable bag or bin.
- Remove hangers and personal belongings.
- Contact Willow & Sage before visiting to confirm current buying availability and intake instructions.
Please allow 1–2 business days for us to carefully review your clothing. Any items left unclaimed for more than 30 days after drop-off will become the property of Willow & Sage.
How Items Are Selected
We are selective so customers can count on a clean, curated shopping experience.
Acceptance is based on:
- Condition and overall appearance
- Current or upcoming season
- Size demand
- Brand and style demand
- Expected resale value
- Current inventory levels
We may decline an item even when it is in good condition if we already have enough inventory in that size, category, or season. Bringing an item does not guarantee that it will be purchased.
Offers and Payment
Ready to Sell?
Offers are based on expected resale value, condition, demand, and current inventory needs and not the item’s original retail price.
Buying hours, processing times, payment methods, and any cash or store-credit options are still being finalized. Please contact the Willow & Sage team before bringing clothing to the store for the latest details.
