Consignment Policies
Picking up any items that do not sell is your responsibility. If you do not wish an item to be given to charity, simply come by before your listed pick up date and take it with you. If you have many items, you may want to choose to email info@beansprouts.ca before your listed pick up date to let us know you are coming so that we can put your items aside for you.
Beansprouts happily donates any items not picked up to the following charities: Family Place centers, YWCA and women's shelters, Children's Hospital, Family counselling centers, school fundraisers, International Orphanages.
