How to Consign with the UA Consignment Sale
All consignors must bring in a completed Registration Form when dropping off
clothes.
Consignors receive 70% of the sale price of their items. Additionally, you’ll have
the satisfaction of supporting Union Academy Foundation with the other
30%. Union Academy Foundation raises money for building and facility needs at
Union Academy.
There is a registration fee of $10.00 for all consignors and this fee is
due when items for sale are dropped off. This fee includes
registration and the envelope & postage for mailing your proceeds.
This sale is limited to children’s items: children’s clothing (Fall and Winter only),
newborn to size 16, junior sizes, gently worn footwear, toys, games, sports gear,
fully-assembled children’s furniture, and accessories.
All items must be clean, complete, and in good condition.

Union Academy reserves the right to pull items which do not meet these
guidelines. Also, please be advised that Union Academy, the Union Academy
Foundation, nor any of its affiliates/employees are in any way responsible for
items that are lost, damaged or unaccounted for. You sign a waiver at drop-off
that expresses your agreement to this.
How to Prepare Your Items for Sale
NOTE: Experience shows that items should be priced at 25-30% of original
retail.
Launder / thoroughly clean all items.
Attach all accessories securely (tape, Ziploc bags may be used for non-clothing
items).
Attach all shoe pairs securely together, loose shoes will not be accepted. Ziploc
bags or string work well for securing purposes.
Hang all clothing and accessories on hangers. Attach shorts, skirts, and pants to
the hanger with safety pins.
Clothing items MUST be sorted by gender and size prior to your entry into the
Union Academy Upper Campus Gym for drop-off. Given the high volume of
clothing received, we simply cannot accept clothing that is not already sorted.
Check electronics to be sure they work properly! We suggest that you include
operational batteries with toys that require them so buyers may test them.

All clothes must be clean, in good condition and hung on hangers with
