If you do not intend to have another child, you can give the unnecessary but still in good condition clothes to your siblings for your nieces. You can also offer them to one of your cousins ​​who are expecting a baby. If they don't use them, give them to someone who needs them.
  2. Give the clothes to those in need .

Other organizations sell second-hand clothes , raising funds to buy food or other items that the disabled and needy need . You can search for such organizations on the Internet. Many of them have set up points for used and unnecessary items. Some of them even have the practice of collecting things at an address.
  3. Take the clothes to second-hand shops . To make sure they are picked up at the store, we recommend that you wash them to remove stains, if any, and sew up the torn seams. It is good that the clothes are placed on hangers, or folded and placed in an envelope. Group the clothes by age and separate them into different packages.
  4. If the clothes are not used , you can ask the specialty stores to sell them to you, agreeing the price with the owner of the store. You may have to wait with the payment until they sell out. You would have a better chance if the clothes are still in fashion and from a famous brand .
  5. Sell ​​clothes online . Here you will probably not get the price you would take from a store. To get a good amount from the sale, you should try to bring the clothes in the best possible shape - wash, iron, remove stains and fix the seams, if any. The next step is to determine the price at which you will announce the clothes . How to determine the price? It should be lower than the price of such an item on the market and also depends on the condition of the garment.

An important condition for the success of the sale is good advertising. Take pictures to show the clothes in detail and in their best light. Describe them in sufficient detail and do not forget to point out their advantages. The aim is for those who are interested in them to get a complete picture of the products they offer. Be prepared to provide additional photos. Do a survey of the most visited sites that sell used clothing , which is free to advertise, and target them. Describe the clothes carefully and in detail and offer both on-site delivery and personal delivery. Don't forget to indicate at whose expense the delivery costs are! Decide whether you want to sell the clothes individually or all to one buyer: it is best to persuade the buyer to take everything for his economic benefit. Be flexible about prices. Indicate an indicative price that can be negotiated, providing a fixed price when buying some or all of the clothes. Prepare to be disappointed. Your clothes may not find a buyer right away. It may take days, even weeks, and they won't call you. Do not give up. Renew your ad if the previous one has expired, or you may want to lower your price.
