Receiving quality over quantity is very important to us and our customers. Our customers appreciate the high quality standards we have in place as they know they can purchase anything in our store without worrying about the condition or safety of the item.
Ever wonder why we take the time to check the items you consign for current safety regulations? Many items we use every day are found to have areas of improvement for the safety of the whole family. We rely on the information from the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC). CPSC has jurisdiction to make recalls or recommendations on product safety and usage for all items we use, not just kids items.
All sorts of items! We buy a wide variety of gently used items for resale.
Yes! We carry a lot of locally made and new items, here are just a few to mention that are commonly in stock:
Consignment means we prep & resell your items for you and you’ll receive a portion of the sale after the items sell.
Absolutely.
Keeping our little ones safe is a big deal at Beanstalk. Ever wonder why we take the time to check the items you consign for current safety regulations? Many items we use every day are found to have areas of improvement for the safety of the whole family. We rely on the information from the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC). CPSC has jurisdiction to make recalls or recommendations on product safety and usage for all items we use, not just kids items.
The few items that have had recalls often have quick replacement parts that can be ordered directly from the original manufacturer and included with your item before bringing it in, most times at no cost.
We can accept up to 2 grocery sized bags or 1 large bin/tote per visit. Please review our guidelines below for what to do if you have bigger items.
It’s easy!
We have walk in days Tuesdays through Saturdays from 10am to 3pm. Please review our guidelines for how much one can bring in per visit. Review our How It Works page on What To Bring Us as well as this page to see the things we generally do not consign or accept for resale.
We accept items as needed seasonally as follows: January – June we accept Spring & Summer, July – December we accept Fall & Winter. We accept rain gear year round!
Yes, we generally do not accept brands from big box stores like Fred Meyer, Target and Walmart etc. This may include but is not limited to the following children’s clothing brands: Carters, Circo, Dip, Genuine Kids, Gerber, Children’s Place, Okie Dokie, Cat & Jack, Art Class, Just One You, Jordash, George, Faded Glory, Koala Kids, First Impressions, Vitamin Kids, Kids Korner, and many more box store brands.
There are a few reasons we’re selective with clothing brand choices: We select items that our customers love to buy second hand and we pay attention to sustainability practices of clothing manufacturers by selecting for higher quality clothing that lasts longer and price point. Box store brands generally do not hold up as well and do not resell as well. If we are low in our quickest selling sizes such as Size 2 through 6 we may take some brands such as Old Navy, H&M, Primary, Cat & Jack etc.
We’re happy to take a look at anything you think we might be interested in, and if there’s a brand you’re not sure about bring it on by during our consigning hours of 10am to 3pm Tuesdays through Saturdays.
We want your shopping experience at Beanstalk to be filled with exciting finds of high quality clothing at a great deal!
We base our prices on the industry standard for children’s resale. And various factors affect the final price including: Brand, condition/quality, demand, size, season, and the current trends. Most items are priced at 50%-70% off the actual retail price. If an item is new with tags or is still in its packaging/box, we will price it higher to reflect the current condition taking into effect demand and trend.
All sorts of items! We take a wide variety of gently used items for consignment resale.
We strive to receive your items and have them on the sales floor in 48hours and in order to do that we have a 2 grocery sized bag or 1 tote or tub limit. If you have more than that please phone or email ahead of time to inquire if we can accommodate more items that day.
Often bigger items such as gear or larger toys make fitting into our 2 bag maximum difficult. So before bringing in larger items, we ask that you check the item(s) for recalls and email us pictures and information about the item(s) before you stop in. That way we can let you know via email if we those are items we can resell for you. For strollers please include a manufacturer date and close up pictures. We will then assess and let you know if we would like to see them. Items that are dirty, missing pieces or parts or are over 5 years old we generally will not be able to resell.
We sure do!

We love supporting local artists and makers of all things kids! Thank you for your interest in Beanstalk and selling your items with us. Send us an email at info@beanstalkpdx.com about the items you make. Please include links, photos, descriptions, and whatever else you’d like us to know, and our buyers will take a look and get back to you.
At the end of 60 days any unsold items are donated to the wonderful charities we work with which include PPS Clothing Closet, Mother & Child, With Love Oregon and Mainspring. These organizations support low income families, teen parents, foster kids and all those in our communities that are in great need. You will receive a courtesy call or email for any items that are priced over $40 to inquire if you’d like to donate or pick up that item. We do our best to select what will sell in the 60 day time frame so ideally there is nothing left to pick up. For those that want to pick up unsold items then the protocol is to call a few days before your 60 day expiration date to get on our “Pick-up Calendar” by scheduling a specific date for pick up. Once your items are pulled on the date you selected you have 7 days to pick them up before they are donated. Due to the volume of inventory that our shops process we do not have the space to store expired or unpicked up items for more than 7 days. Donated items go to PPS Clothing Closet, Mother & Child, PDX Diaper Bank, and With Love Oregon Foster families and other local charities that serve those in need.
Thank you for being part of our resale, recycle and reusing Beanstalk Family. You are making a difference in the sustainability of your community and the greater Portland area.
