Spring/Summer 2026 sale is scheduled for February 24-28

 *** CLICK HERE FOR CONSIGNOR LOGIN *** 

The Oak Hill School Consignment Sale is the school’s largest community fundraiser and a long-standing tradition that brings families together to shop with purpose. Since 1988, proceeds from the sale have supported the Oak Fund, helping Oak Hill enhance classrooms, address emerging priorities, grow the endowment, and strengthen financial assistance for families.

Held twice a year—our spring/summer sale in February and our fall/winter sale in September—the event has grown into one of Nashville’s best-known children’s consignment sales. Each season, hundreds of consignors and volunteers join forces to welcome shoppers from across Middle Tennessee.

Shoppers will find an extensive selection of quality items, including newborn through junior size 16 clothing and shoes, toys, books, baby gear, bikes, and sports equipment. Beyond raising funds for Oak Hill, the sale also makes a direct impact on the wider community. Unsold items marked for donation are collected at the close of each sale and distributed to local nonprofit partners, providing clothing and essentials to families in need throughout Nashville.

The sale is open to the public during regular shopping days, with exclusive pre-sale access available to consignors and volunteers. By taking part—whether as a shopper, consignor, or volunteer—you help Oak Hill invest in classrooms, teachers, and students, while also extending support to families across Nashville.

Consignor Tagging Guidelines

Item Limits & Pricing

• Each consignor must enter a minimum of 20 items and may consign up to 300 items total.

• All items must be priced at a minimum of $4.00 each.

• Inventory entry will close on Tuesday of sale week at 2:00 p.m. After this time you may still print tags, but no changes can be made.
  
  

Clothing

• All clothing must be hung on wire hangers with the hanger facing left so it forms a question mark (“?”).

• Tags should be pinned to the upper right-hand side of the garment (as you face it).

• Use an appropriately sized safety pin — overly large pins may damage clothing.

• Do not use tagging guns, paper tags, or plastic hangers — these will not be accepted.

• Every item must have a numerical size (e.g., “Medium (8/10)” should be entered as Size 8).

Shoes

• Shoes may not be placed in bags or boxes.

• Secure pairs together with zip ties, ribbon, strong string, or rubber bands. For shoes without laces or loops, you may use:

  • Zip tie through ankle openings or around a strap/buckle

  • A strong rubber band wrapped tightly around both shoes

  • A small binder clip to hold shoes together

• Always reinforce the tag with packing tape before hole-punching and attach the tag through the tie or string holding the shoes together.

Books

• Books may not be placed in bags. Instead, secure multiple books together firmly so they remain as a bundle.

• Tips for Success:

  • Keep titles and barcodes visible for scanning.

  • Make bundles manageable in weight and height.

  • Double-check that bundles will not come apart during handling.

• Approved bundling methods include:

  • Heavy-duty rubber bands in a cross-pattern (add index cards under bands to prevent dents).

  • Stretch or cling film wrapped tightly several times, leaving spines visible.

  • Ribbon or strong twine tied snugly in both directions.

Toys, Games & Puzzles

• We have a strict No Loose Parts Policy. Toys, games, puzzles, and play kitchens must be fully secured — items with missing or unsecured pieces will not be accepted.

• How to secure toys:

  • Stretch wrap around puzzles, blocks, or multi-piece sets, leaving one side visible.

  • Painter’s tape to keep lids closed and to attach accessories to the main item.

  • Small accessories in a clear zip bag, then taped or tied to the toy.

  • Ribbon, string, or rope to tie large accessories directly to the main item.

  • If punching a hole in your tag for a zip tie, reinforce with packing tape first to prevent tearing.
    
    

• Special notes for play kitchens and large toys:

  • All play food, dishes, and accessories must be attached to the kitchen itself.

  • Secure drawers and doors with ribbon or painter’s tape.

  • Place the tag on the main body of the item, not a removable part.

• Tips for success: Items should be shoppable, sturdy, and able to be carried without shifting or rattling.
  
  

Printing Tags

• Print tags on white, smooth cardstock only. Do not use colored paper, regular printer paper, or textured paper.

• Printer settings should be set to Best or High Quality mode (avoid Draft/Eco).

• Print at 100% scale — do not shrink or enlarge.

• Use black ink only. Barcodes must be crisp, sharp, and not blurry or faded.

• Allow ink to dry completely before cutting to prevent smudging.
  
  

Reminder: With over 40,000 items in each sale and many hands handling merchandise, properly prepared and securely tagged items are the best way to ensure your items remain intact, sell well, and are not lost or separated.

Pricing

Pricing is subjective, but a good rule of thumb is to start at one-third of the original retail price, then adjust based on the brand and condition of the item.

For brands that frequently go on sale—such as Hanna Andersson, J.Crew, and Gap—we recommend pricing your items based on the typical sale price, rather than full retail.

Our goal is to help your items sell! Please price competitively, ensure all items are clean, and hang them properly on wire hangers.

Pro tip: Select “REDUCE” when entering your items to allow them to sell at 50% off during the half-price sale. If your item hasn’t sold by then, this increases its chances of finding a new home!

Donated Items

We encourage you to consider donating any unsold items to our amazing charity partners. If you plan to donate, please ensure your tags are marked for donation when entering your items.

You can print a Donations Report from your Consignor My Sale Manager Homepage. This report will include only items that were both marked for donation and remained unsold.

Please note: we cannot generate a donations report for items that were marked for pick-up but left behind.

All unclaimed items will be donated promptly at 3:00 p.m. on Saturday.

Drop Off Information

Once you're logged into your Consignor My Sale Manager Homepage, be sure to schedule your drop-off appointment.

❗You cannot drop off without an appointment and must arrive during your designated time slot. 

When you arrive for your appointment, be prepared to place your clothing on the designated racks.  We will have volunteers available to help with heavier items, such as large baby gear, play kitchen sets, or outdoor toys. Please take a moment to review the two different drop-off options outlined below.

✅ Remember-all items must be properly hung and tagged according to our tagging guidelines.

 What to Bring to Your Drop-Off Appointment:

• Clothing: Sorted by gender and size, tags printed on white card stock and secured using a safety pin and hung on wire hangers

• Shoes must be secured together using zip ties or string, and the tag should be reinforced with packing tape before punching a hole for attachment. This ensures your tags stay secure throughout the sale. 

• Toys, books, games, baby gear, etc.: Clean, in working condition, with working batteries (if applicable). All accessories for toys and games must be securely attached in a sealed bag or container to ensure no pieces are lost during the sale. 

• Car Seats & Boosters: Consignor tags must include either the expiration date or the manufacture date. Items will only be accepted if:

• The seat has at least 1 full year remaining before expiration, OR

• If no expiration date is printed on the manufacturer’s tag, the seat is less than 5 years old from the manufacture date.

👉 Consignor tags must clearly state “Expires on [MM/YYYY]” or “Manufactured on [MM/YYYY]”.

• A laundry basket or bin labeled with your consignor number on the shorter end, if you plan to pick up unsold items not marked for donation at the end of the sale; we will not accept cardboard boxes or collapsible bins. 

Consignor Pick-Up Information

Pick-up is Saturday from 2:00–3:00 p.m.
Items cannot be picked up before 2:00 p.m., and any items not claimed by 3:00 p.m. will be donated to our charity partners. Unfortunately, we cannot hold items for anyone who does not arrive by 3:00 p.m.

If you are unable to come during the pick-up window, please arrange for someone else to pick up on your behalf. 

Important Steps:

Review Your Sold Item’s Report First
Please log in and review your sold item's report before coming to pick-up. This will tell you exactly which items have sold so you know which items you should expect to collect.

Check Your Bin Carefully
When picking up, your items will be sorted into a bin labeled with your consignor number. It is your responsibility to check the contents of your bin to ensure everything belongs to you.

Missing Items
If you notice something missing, please check both the Lost Tag Rack and the Donation Rack before leaving.

Large Items
Large items will not be in your bin—they are sorted separately. If you consigned any large items, you must check the Large Item Area before leaving.

If Someone Else is Picking Up for You
Be sure they know:

1. • Your consignor number

   • Which items to collect (based on your sold item’s report)

   • To check your bin, the Large Item Area, the Lost Tag area and the Donation Racks before leaving

Reminders

• Oak Hill School is not responsible for any items that are damaged, lost during the sale, or not picked up by the 3:00 p.m. deadline.
