Go to the site and ask for bags to be sent to you. If you look on the thred up site there are places where you can begin consignment procedure. Remember that their acceptance rate is between 10 to 25 percent. And for the bulk of items you will get between 2 to 4 dollars per item. And that is on good things. Less expensive you can expect 50 cents to a dollar. So be careful and realistic. It is not about making much money for you. It's about their profit. Everyone on various sites is discussing a lot of speculation as to where the bulk of the product goes. No one really knows. And it is very major quantities. I have sent more than a few bags of good clothing that has a 100 percent rejection rate. More than a few of the people in chat rooms have been speculating that the items are sold elsewhere. And very likely overseas... on sites elsewhere

Or better yet. Go to t resale store and be in control. Once they have your stuff, they mark it ridiculously low, and don't accept most of it. They should be out of business

Click on "sell" at the top of the main page or go to the bottom and click on "order bag". Your clothes have to be new and clean. It's a lot of trouble to clean and ship your bag and receive next to nothing as a payoff. I would not advise it. However, I have ordered things from them and have been pleased with my purchases, so for that, the site is legit. It's just better to donate the clothing and get a tax write-off rather than getting $7.00 for excellent clothes that you just don't wear.

You'll have to place an order on their website for however many bags you think you will need. They send the bags to you, you fill them with clothes and drop off at the post office. All shipping is paid by them. Hope that helps.

Ive had fairly good experiences. I've only sent in 3 bags of clothing. From them I've made about $35. I like to look for deals on the site ie new with tags rather than deals I get on items they purchase from me. If I'm going to give away anything I prefer to give it to someone I know or at least get the tax credit.
