We Accept
We welcome upscale home décor, small furniture, unique artwork, jewelry, vintage or designer clothing, and accessories.

To be considered, items must be clean, in excellent condition, and ready for resale. For example:

• No chips, cracks or stains

• Metals polished

• Artwork framed or in a protective sleeve

• Lamps in working order

• Area rugs must be professionally cleaned

All items are subject to approval to ensure they meet our quality standards and are a good fit for the shop.

We Don’t Accept
Upholstered furniture, pillows, quilts, stuffed animals, electronics, children’s items, shoes, items containing ivory or materials prohibited from resale under applicable laws, or pieces outside the categories listed above.

Consignments are accepted by appointment only. At this time, we are unable to accommodate walk-ins.

Because of our limited space, we are unable to accept every item offered for consignment or donation. To help determine whether your items are a good fit, we ask that you email or text photos before scheduling an appointment, especially for larger items or collections. This helps save time for everyone and streamlines the consignment process.

All items are inspected in person before final acceptance.

Appointments may be scheduled through our Appointments page.

We do not offer pick-up services, so all accepted items must be delivered to the shop.

Approved items are accepted on consignment for a 90-day (3-month) term, with consignors receiving 50% of the final selling price.

To help keep the shop fresh and merchandise moving, most items are discounted 15% after 30 days and an additional 15% after 60 days (30% total). This policy does not apply to fine jewelry or other select high-value items.

Consigned items must remain in the shop for the full 90-day term and cannot be picked up early.

A $30 annual consignor fee helps cover administrative costs.

Consignors are paid monthly by check for items sold during the previous month.

Due to limited retail space, inventory levels, and seasonality, accepted items are placed on the sales floor as space becomes available and when we believe they have the best opportunity to sell. Items from the same consignment may be displayed at different times, and each item's 90-day consignment period begins when it is placed on the sales floor, not when it is dropped off.

Please note: We do not purchase items outright.

We price items based on market research and local demand. As a nonprofit consignment shop, our focus is on selling items at fair, competitive prices that support our mission and keep inventory moving.

Because we do not sell online, our prices are often lower than those found on online marketplaces.

Pricing is determined by The Bird and is based on our research and experience. We do not provide pricing quotes during intake appointments. Final pricing is established after items have been reviewed by our staff.

Unsold items must be collected within 7 days of the end of the consignment period. Any items not picked up within that timeframe will be considered abandoned and may be donated to The Bird to support our nonprofit mission or distributed to another charitable organization.

Consignors are responsible for monitoring their item expiration dates through their online consignor portal.

A tax donation receipt for donated items is available upon request.

Yes! We always appreciate thoughtful donations.

To help us make the best use of our limited storage space and small team, we ask that donated items follow the same guidelines as consigned items. This allows us to process donations efficiently and maximize the support we provide to our nonprofit mission.
