Q&A
ThredUp is an online consignment and thrift store where you can buy and sell high-quality secondhand clothes. To sell, you can order a Clean Out Kit, fill it with items you no longer want, and send it back to ThredUp. For buying, you can browse the website or app for a wide variety of clothing, shoes, and accessories at discounted prices.
ThredUp offers a 14-day return window for most items. Items must be returned in the same condition in which they were received. Final sale items, however, are not eligible for return. For processing a return, you can go to the ThredUp site, print out the return label, and send the items back.
It usually takes about 1-2 weeks for ThredUp to process a Clean Out Kit once it is received at the facility. During busy periods, this can extend to up to 3 weeks. After processing, you will receive an email notification with any items that were accepted and the payout amount.
