Thank you for considering Home Again to consign your fine home furnishings! As a general rule, anything we accept must be in ‘like-new’ condition, less than 5 years old, and current in style; in other words, you could buy a similar item in an upscale furniture or décor store.
If you have larger scale items to consign, such as a dining room set or upholstery, it is always best to email or bring in photos first to make sure we can accept it. Once we have accepted your item(s), if you need assistance bringing it to the store, we can recommend delivery companies for you to contact. Their rates vary based on the number of items and location, and typically range from $45-$60, which is payable when the item(s) are picked up.
If you have a large volume of merchandise, such as a model home or entire estate, one of our associates will be happy to conduct an on-site visit by appointment.
All items we accept are placed on our sales floor immediately, so kindly make sure your items are thoroughly cleaned prior to bringing them in.
Here are a few more details about the items we accept.
Wooden furniture, including dining room furniture and bedroom furniture, must be mostly solid wood
with no missing hardware. It must be in excellent working condition, with only slight scratches or imperfections in the finish; sorry, we do not accept furniture that must be refinished.
Upholstered items must have no stains, rips, tears, odors, pet hair, noticeable fading and must be from smoke-free homes; in other words, in excellent condition. The age of the upholstery item we accept will generally be 5 years or less.
Rugs must be from pet-free, smoke-free homes only, and must have no stains, odors, fading or substantial wear, unless they are antique pieces.
We typically don’t accept rugs larger than 5X8 in size.
Decorative accessories, art and lamps must be clean, in excellent shape, and have no major chips, scratches or imperfections
. We are always happy to accept
‘knick-knacks’ such as small picture frames, candlesticks, bookends, serving platters, etc., but ask that you bring us at least 5 or more small items per consignment. We also accept
patio furniture in excellent condition.

Ready to get started?
For larger items, the best way is to send us a picture: We are able to get a sense of the style and condition and are then able to ask some educated questions about your furniture. We take into consideration the original purchase price of your furniture, the age of the item, and where you purchased it. Please email pictures of your larger items to
info@homeagainwilmington.com.
Smaller items can be brought in anytime during normal business hours—or after-hours by appointment.
Please note that we prefer not to receive consignments on Saturdays, as this is our busiest day, but we can arrange to meet you prior to opening at 10.
We accept your items for consignment for a period of 90 days and our consignors receive 60% of the selling price of their item. We are happy to email you our complete consignment policies upon request.
