Spring Children's Consignment Sale

My church in Augusta GA holds a HUGE Children's Consignment Sale twice a year with 40% of the proceeds (after all consignors get 60%!) going to the church's mission partners.

The exciting news this time is that we’re moving back home!

Due to church renovation we were off site in the fall. I won't even go into those headaches and hassles.

The Spring Sale will be held back at the church location at 1330 Monte Sano Avenue (Wesley Hall). We’re excited to come home, but due to continuing church renovations, our available space will be slightly smaller than what we are used to having.

New Check In Procedures
Due to our limited space and a desire to improve the quality of our sale for shoppers, we will be screening items
more closely for compliance with our standards. In addition, we will no longer be accepting certain items. Please visit our website (Consignor FAQs) for specific guidelines of what items will and will not be accepted for consignment.

New Tags
We are moving to a new system of color coded tags. Blue tags will be used for items you wish to have returned to you if they do not sell. Pink tags will be used for items you wish to donate if they do not sell. You will no longer need to mark each tag “To Be Returned”; just use the correct color tag! Your consignor packet will contain ~ 50 tags of each color.

The Trinity on the Hill Children’s Consignment Sale (TOTH CCS) is held twice a year in the spring and fall on the church property located at 1330 Monte Sano Avenue in Augusta, Georgia. Proceeds from the sale are divided between the seller (60%) and the TOTH CCS (40%). The net proceeds retained by the church are used to support the local, national and international missions of Trinity Outreach Ministries. (Click here for a list of our mission partners.) In addition, at the discretion of the consignor, any unsold items may be donated to TOTH CCS to be used in various missions projects.
