FAQ - For Folks Who Need to Unload Fabric & Sewing Supplies
What items do you accept?
If it's related to fiber crafts, we're interested!
We'll accept donations of fabric, books, patterns, yarn, notions and tools related to textile crafts.
We will pay for:
Fabric pieces over 3 yards (On average, we pay $1-$2 per yard. We will pay more for undamaged silk or wool)
Items like large tools or equipment are negotiable
Do you take deadstock?
Yes!! If you're a fabric shop or clothing brand that needs to liquidate some unused/unsold sewing supplies, let's talk. Email Liv at info@athriftynotion.com
How can I donate fabric to your shop?
We accept drop-offs of unwanted fabric at our storefront located at 528 Riley Ave in Ogden, KS. We also pick up larger collections in the Northeast Kansas area. If you would like to schedule a pickup, please contact us at info@athriftynotion.com
If you are bringing a large drop-off and want to be paid for it, plan on leaving it with us for a couple of hours so we can thoroughly calculate what it's worth. We'll give you some great restaurant recommendations to check out while you wait.
What if I'm not in Kansas?
For larger collections or deadstock, get in touch ( info@athriftynotion.com ) - we are open to shipping via freight carriers or even planning a trip around a fabric pickup!
You can also mail boxes of fabric to our shop. We will always refund the shipping cost of your mail-in donation through store credit. Once we review your items, if the payout value exceeds your shipping refund, you have the option of a payout or additional store credit for the remaining balance.
We encourage you to research shipping options to reduce costs as much as possible so that you can receive a potential payout on top of your shipping refund.
Tip: If you have books to ship us, please mail those separately through Media Mail, as this will decrease costs significantly. Media Mail can ONLY be used for books, so all other items (including sewing patterns) must be shipped separately.
Include a note with your name and the email you want your refund/payout information sent to, then
