Selling to

Kym’s Kiddy Corner

Selling to us is the easiest and fastest way to upcycle your kids’ items. We buy and trade outright every day, and you’re welcome to shop while we look through your things—no dropping off and returning later.

We don’t require appointments, but we highly recommend calling or texting us first at 206-361-5974. Feel free to text us pictures (we love texts!) so we can pre-approve larger items or gear—no need to send photos of clothing or small toys. Once we give the green light, please bring your items within 3 days. If you miss that window, just reach out again before heading in.

We wish we could take everything, but space fills quickly. All buying depends on current demand and available room. Use the guide below for a clear idea of what we take and what to expect.
