Baby items are great sellers! Here are a few tagging tips to help your items sell their best!
*All baby gear needs to be MANUFACTURED WITHIN 10 YEARS to sell at JBF. Check the manufacture date, usually found on bottom of the item. See additional guidelines for cribs & car seats below.
Diaper Bags, Snugglis, Slings, Car Seat Covers:
These items should be zip tied to a large hanger for security and so they can hang on a rack. We have zip ties at drop-off if you need one. Make sure to wipe down plastic items and take off and wash fabric covers!
Strollers, High Chairs, Car Seats:
It's important to CLEAN THESE ITEMS! The fabric pads should be removed from ALL baby equipment and put in your washing machine so they're clean. All baby items need the straps, too! These items use the yellow claim ticket so bring tags unattached. (See Tagging LARGE ITEMS)
Bottles:
You can put multiple bottles in a ziploc bag and tape shut.
Blankets:
See “What We Accept” for full bedding guidelines.
The only blankets we accept are receiving blankets, meaning small receiving or swaddling type blankets, plus gauze-type blankets. NO fleece or crocheted/ quilted blankets accepted and no crib bedding sets.
To package blankets: You can put in ziploc bag OR use curling ribbon to “tie” the folded blanket like a present. Don’t tape bag shut so it can be inspected for stains.
Bibs:
Bibs sell best when shoppers can inspect them to see there are no stains. We try to hang bibs so they sell best and will have clips to use at drop-off for this. If you are selling multiple bibs at once, pin them together but DON'T use a ziploc bag so shoppers can flip through them.
Car Seats & Cribs:
Car seats must be LESS THAN 5 years old to be sold, pass our car seat inspection and not be recalled. Cribs must be stationary sided and be manufactured June 2011 or newer. See our SAFETY PAGE for more details and to check if you can bring yours!
NOTE: To keep kids safe, WE will provide a furniture tip kit for any larger baby furniture sold.
Sorry, We CANNOT Accept:
Baby gear OLDER THAN 10 YEARS
Breathable or regular bumper pads
Rock 'n Play type sleepers
Wedge sleep aids
Bath seats with suction cups
Other baby gear deemed unsafe will be pulled by our recall specialist as necessary.
