CLOTHING

We take pride in providing families with an opportunity to buy high quality, brand name items at great prices. For this reason, Whale of a Sale – Columbus does NOT accept the following:

• Out-of-date clothing that is 5 years or older. Our customers are looking for brand names and current styles. Items that look dated or worn out will be removed from the sales floor.

• Faded, wrinkled, stained, animal hair covered, bad odor, or damaged clothing items will not be accepted. Our customers expect to find high quality items. Please take the time to make sure that each of your items are neat, clean, fresh smelling, and wrinkle free. Thank you for your understanding that some items will be returned to you at pick up if they do not meet sale standards.

• Individual onesies will not be accepted. Onesies either need to be grouped in multiples or with an outfit.

• No used socks, bras, or underwear.

• Clothing could be removed from the sales floor if it isn’t seasonally appropriate. We do accept bathing suits, winter jackets, Halloween costumes, and athleticwear year round.

• All clothes must be hung on a hanger.  Clothes must be hung with the hook facing left (like a ?).

• Use a safety pin or tagging gun to attach tags to clothing. 

• Tags should be placed on right side of clothing through a seam or through the garment tag in the neckline. Never tag directly into the fabric.  Tag through a seam (under arm), waistband, or pocket.

• Pants, skirts or shorts should be safety pinned to the top of the hanger.

• If bundling hangers, please use a zip tie to combine the items.
