When can I bring items in?
We no longer take appointments to consign items. All items must be drop and run.
A Drop and Run works this way: You drop off your items at Beanstalk for review. (No appt. necessary). Beanstalk will review your items within 1 week of drop off. Beanstalk will determine what items are suitable for consignment and which items are not. Items not selected for consignment are referred to as "no thank you's". Beanstalk will notify you when your review has been completed. Items that are not selected for consignment can either be donated by Beanstalk or picked up by the consigner. You must inform Beanstalk when dropping off that you wish to retrieve your items . You are required to pick up your no thank you's within 1 week of your notification.
Drop & Runs (D&R's) are allowed Tues-Sat 10am-5pm Sun and Mon12:00pm to 4:00pm
No appt. necessary.

How should I prepare the items I'm bringing in?
We recommend that you
carefully go through each item you plan to
consign. All items must be in perfect
condition, clean, in season and in style,
and must come in ready to sell. Clothing
should be brand name only and should be
delivered in presentable condition and neatly folded in
shopping bags or boxes. All blazers and special event clothing should be delivered on hangers. Equipment, toys and
furniture should be clean, in good working
order and must meet all current safety requirements
Bins, boxes bags or any other containers that clothing is delivered in will not be returned to consignor.
How should I prepare my Items for drop off?
Label your bag w/name and drop off date and please make sure clothes are neatly folded. We will review the items and enter them into the system in the order they come in. You will receive a detailed item and price list via e-mail, and any "no thank you's" will be donated to charity.
How long
will you try to sell my items and how do the
markdowns work?
The consignment period
last a total of 75 days. Children's,
juniors, women's and maternity clothing ,
toys, and decor are reduced by 25% after 30
days, and by 50% after 60 days. Furniture
and equipment are not subject to a markdown.
At the end of 60 days, you can retrieve any
unsold items. Any items not picked up after
75 days from the original date of
consignment become property of The Beanstalk
Consignment Company and may be donated or
re-sold. Note: It is the consignors
responsibility to know there expiration
date. This will be on your item report
listed as Pick up date.
The important question- How much money will I make and how do I get paid?
While you probably won't
get rich through consignment, we hope to put
as much money back in your pocket as we can.
Remember, it is in our best interest to
price items for maximal return. Keep in mind
however that we also need to pay close
attention to market factors. We don't want
your items to go unsold due to unrealistic
pricing. Prices are set by Beanstalk staff
but we welcome your input.
Consignors receive 40% of the sale price of
children's ,juniors, women's, and maternity
clothing, toys, books, and 50% of the sale
price on furniture and equipment.
The Beanstalk Consignment Company is not
responsible for notifying a consignor they
have money available to them. Consignors are
responsible for inquiring about and
collecting there earnings from Beanstalk.
Upon request, checks can be mailed for a
$1.00 fee. Consignment earnings not
retrieved within 12 months of the original
date of consignment become null and void.
Thank you for your interest in Beanstalk Consignment. We look forward to working with you!
