New This Season
First, thank you for choosing to consign with Tot Trade. Tot Trade is one of the fastest growing children’s consignment sales! In one season we added over 25,000 sq feet…..and still growing! In order to accommodate our growth and continue to service our consignors, Tot Trade has implemented a few changes for the Spring/Summer 2009 sale season.
These changes are being made based on consignor feedback and in an effort to continue to ensure that every part of the sale runs as smoothly as possible from drop off, presale shopping and pick up. Please take a moment to familiarize yourself with these changes in order to make sure this season is the best yet!
- Consignor Agreement: In an effort to expedite consignor drop off, Tot Trade has posted the consignor agreement online (consignor page). Please print off, read and sign and bring to drop off. Present the agreement, confirm your address and pick up your armband and you are ready for this season!
- 100 item appointments: Tot Trade does not require consignors to schedule a drop off appointment; however, we would like to know that you are coming if you have 100 + items. This season Tot Trade will have two different drop off check in stations. (Appointments/Non-Appointments) Tot Trade has listed (4) 100 item appointments every 10 minutes throughout drop off. Once these appointments are taken Tot Trade will not be able to add additional appointments. If you are unable to schedule an appointment, I assure you that we will be able to check-in your items; however your wait time may be longer. Please DO NOT schedule an appointment if you DO NOT have 100+ items.
- Drop Off Procedures: Please be sure to allow enough time to put out any NON CLOTHING items out on the sale floor. If these items are dropped off and NOT put out on the sales floor Tot Trade cannot be responsible for putting them out. Volunteers will be working to inspect, organize and put your clothing items out on the floor. If consignors DO NOT assist us with putting out their NON CLOTHING items, staff is left with hours of sorting and distribution. Tot Trade has worked to streamline your check in process this season to limit your wait at check in to allow you time to put out your items. Thank you for your help! Remember, we are constructing a mini department store in 5 days, every minute counts!
- Tot Trade has added extra drop off hours to WEDNESDAY and THURSDAY to accommodate your schedule. Tot Trade WILL NOT have drop off hours the day of the presale. Thanks for marking your calendar!

- Consignor Referral: Tot Trade NEEDS volunteers to work the sale to make sure everyone has a positive experience. Due to the change in Volunteer shifts, Tot Trade WILL NO LONGER offer an 70% Sale to moms who refer 2 moms. Check out our Super Mom Volunteer Option.
- Consignor Corner: Each season, Tot Trade has items that loose their tags throughout the sale. Tot Trade’s policy is to hold those items and cards and try to match them throughout the sale and get them back out on the sale floor. This season Tot Trade will have a Consignor Corner to sort and retag these items. If you are shopping, please stop by and check to see if you have items that we can retag and put back out on the floor. The consignor corner will be located at the front of the sale at the cash registers. Tot Trade’s goal is to SELL your ITEMS!
- Presale Passes: Volunteers will receive (1) PRESALE pass for themselves to enter. Consignors, First Time Moms and Grandparents will receive (2) presale passes.
- Tagging examples: Please be sure to check out our tagging examples on the consignor page. Tot Trade has added several examples and features to ensure a UNIFORM tagging process.
- Volunteer/Let’s Make a Deal: Due to the number of no shows for “Bring A Meal” Tot Trade will no longer offer this option, we will use the Cabarrus Catering Service. (Tot Trade wants to keep our volunteers happy!) Be sure to check out the MANY opportunities for you to become involved this season to SHOP at the HOTTEST PRESALE SHOPPING!
