Seasonal Apparel/Gear:

  • We are now accepting used climbing gear, with some exceptions. We will not accept used ropes or harnesses but will take them if they are new with tags and unused. We will visually inspect all other devices and take them if they seem safe and fully functional. We’re happy to see what you’ve got and go from there.

  • We are now accepting Spring and Summer apparel and gear (except for items on pause listed below)! If you are planning on bringing a boat or bike, please call ahead to confirm we have space.

  • We are always taking uninsulated rain shells. We will keep accepting lightweight jackets like windbreakers, we are no longer accepting heavier down, down jackets, vests, or heavy fleece jackets.

  • This is a great time to bring camping gear like: sleeping bags, sleeping pads, camping cookware and stoves, packs and camping furniture.

  • We are no longer accepting winter specific gear - this includes but is not limited to skis, snowboards, ski/snowboard boots, snowshoes, ski jackets and pants, beanies/gloves/scarves, etc This intake will resume around October.

  • We are NO LONGER accepting roof rack systems, the towers are simply too car specific. We will sell current bars and will sell systems that attach to existing parallel bars. You can always call us for more details.

Items Temporarily On Pause:

  • Call ahead for bikes and boats! Availability is changing daily and if you call ahead we can reserve a spot for you. If you bring a bike or boat in without calling ahead we might not be able to accept it that day.

  • We are staying picky on shoes which mostly means we’re taking top quality and will prioritize seasonally appropriate footwear over insulated boots, etc If you bring something out of season, we will just ask you to bring it later this year!

  • Women’s pants are on Pause. Thick canvas pants, thicker softshell pants and fleece lined pants are best for Fall.

  • In general, women’s clothing is very full so we will be taking our top selling brands and we will be picky on condition. Likely, we will pass on items you can bring us later in the year and we will let you know at your drop off what those are!

  • Items like heavy fleece mid-layers (think Patagonia Snap-T or synchilla) and flannel button down are also better for Fall.

    • We are always accepting tents, hammocks, sleeping bags/sleeping pads, packs, stoves, mess kits, trekking poles, kayak and canoe paddles, kayak skirts, PFDs, fly fishing gear, bike components and cleats, climbing shoes, etc. in good condition.

    • We like guide books and maps in good shape.

    • We do not sell used climbing hard goods like harnesses, ropes, quickdraws or trad gear (anything load bearing), but used climbing shoes and chalk bags sell very well.

    • Always call ahead before bringing larger items to ensure that space remains available.

    • We have limited space for bikes right now. Please ahead call to reserve a space.

    • We are now taking boats for 2026 - please call ahead to reserve a space

    • We ask that you limit your drop off to 20 ITEMS OR LESS.

    • We will confirm your consignment account when you arrive, or we will explain the details and set up your new consignee account.

    • Items should be pre-cleaned* and in a bag or tote. To avoid a cleaning fee - all clothes and sleeping bags should be prewashed, shoes should be free of dried dirt/mud, packs should have empty pockets and no dust/dirt or mold on them, tents should also be mold free and not have leaves or dirt inside when we set them up.

      • It’s ideal to follow the washing instructions for technical gear like rain jackets, synthetic coats, down jackets and down sleeping bags. Many shells and synthetic jackets have a DWR (durable water repellent) that can be damaged by standard detergents. Feel free to call us and request guidance on washing quality gear if you’re not sure what your items may need, or let us wash them for a small fee. We use Techwash and downwash as needed on gear.

    • We will need you to remain on location while we process your intake. Any items we cannot take will be returned to you before you leave, as we cannot store rejected items for later pick-up. You are welcome to browse while we complete your intake. Appointments are likely to last 15 minutes or less.

    • We cannot guarantee that we will be able to take a look at your items without an appointment. If we can, we will limit intake to 5 items or fewer.

    • To help us limit item intake, only 4 appointments are bookable each day. If 4 appointments have been booked, the calendar below will automatically only show availability for the next day. Please double check the date selected on the calendar when booking your appointment, especially for day of bookings.
