how it works
​
Items may be brought during store hours, and either reviewed on the spot or dropped off and we will review at a later time.
​
​Unaccepted items will be donated to our affiliated local charity, Project Just Because in Hopkinton, MA.
​
Please note, we are not able to discuss item by item what we are keeping/purchasing if you drop off. If you want to know more details about the exchange and decision-making process please make an appointment. Drop offs cannot include that level of detail. Leave a note on the drop off form, if you would like to see what we choose , otherwise we will process your items.
​​
For larger items, please send a photo of the item(s) prior to bringing to the store.
​
​We accept children’s sizes 0-12/14 and maternity clothes.
​
Please only bring in what you, yourself would buy. ALL ITEMS should be in excellent condition, recently washed, free of stains, holes, fraying, tears, visible pet hair or other imperfections.
