If you want to consign furniture, please email a picture of the furniture or bring a picture of the furniture in for the manager to look at to be sure we will accept it. We would hate for you to bring a large load and then tell you we couldn't accept it. After the manager views the picture, we can then make an appointment for you to drop off your furniture.

You may request a check once every 30 days when your consignment balance is $25 or more. You can receive a check for under $25, but you will be charged a $1 handling fee.

Any store credit you have earned may be used at any time to purchase items in the store (and receive a discount)!!

Making consignment drops couldn't be easier! No appointment needed...but we do encourage them. Just come to the consignment drop door behind Dollar General during the designated times and we will go through your items with you present and take what we believe will sell and send back with you what we don't believe will sell.
