7 Best Sites for Used Kids Clothes, Toys, and More

Kids outgrow can outgrow clothes, toys, and furniture quickly. As your baby grows, choosing secondhand clothes, toys, and other items will save you money, and your footprint.

‍

From clothing and shoes to toys and furniture, you can find almost everything secondhand for your kids these days. You can get some great deals at yard sales, consignment sales, thrift stores, or even navigate online marketplaces like Craigslist and Facebook Marketplace. Also, check out kid-specific consignment shops in your area for used baby items.

‍

Another alternative is to check with your friends or relatives, or with your neighbors on Buy Nothing groups.

‍

No matter what baby stuff you’re looking for, you can probably find it secondhand. Here are some of our favorite places to browse:

Clothes

‍

Babies grow fast, so you'll need to size up often. Buying secondhand baby clothes can help you save money and keep good-quality clothes out of landfills.

‍

Before putting these on your baby, check if all the buttons, zippers, and clasps are intact and working and give them a thorough wash.

Shoes

‍

Pre-walkers often wear shoes just for special occasions or photos, making gently used options a smart choice. Designer baby shoes, in particular, can be found at a fraction of their original cost when purchased secondhand.

‍

Look for pairs with minimal wear on the soles and clean insoles.

Diapers

‍

Cloth diapers are a sustainable alternative to disposables and can be reused for years. Buying preloved cloth diapers is an even better alternative.

‍

When purchasing used cloth diapers, check for elastic integrity, secure snaps or fasteners, and ensure the waterproof layers are still effective. Most preloved diapers can be sanitized with a proper wash routine before use.

Toys

‍

Toys don’t need to be brand-new to spark joy. You can save money and reduce waste by picking up open-box or secondhand toys that are safe, fun, and good as new from these brands:

‍

When buying used toys, always check for chipped paint and loose parts. Watch out for small pieces that could pose choking hazards. We also recommend checking the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) recall database before purchasing.
