DROP OFF PROCEDURES
💥💥EVERY SELLER who plans to pick up unsold items must leave a “PICK UP BIN” — A PLASTIC BIN (without the lid), LABELED WITH SELLER NAME, SELLER NUMBER & SELLER PHONE NUMBER.
This is both convenient for you to take your things home in, and important for our sort process at the end of the sale! Boxes or bags will not work for this process. Those who do not bring a bin will be charged $5 (this will be deducted from your final payment).
IF YOU ARE DONATING ALL OF YOUR ITEMS you do NOT need to bring a plastic bin.
WHAT WOULD CAUSE MY ITEMS NOT TO BE PLACED ON THE SELLING FLOOR AFTER INSPECTION? Items that did not meet our quality standards. (We call these items our "No Thank You Items") OR Items from our Unaccepted Item list were found in your sale items.
WHAT ARE "NO THANK YOU" ITEMS? Items that do not meet our sale standards for quality/cleanliness or items that are recalled. Please refer to the Seller Agreement in your Online Seller Account for a breakdown of “No Thank You" item fees.
💥DROP OFF QUESTIONS💥
WHEN IS DROP OFF? APRIL 11 and the morning of APRIL 12. You MUST sign up for a drop off time. Sign-ups will be available in your seller account.
HOW DO I SIGN UP FOR A DROP OFF TIME? Sign ups will take place in the same system you will use for entering your price tags.
HOW LONG WILL MY DROP OFF TAKE? The more organized your items are, the faster your drop off will go. Our goal is to have you in and out in 45 minutes or less.
HOW DOES DROP OFF WORK? Refer to the graphic on this page, “Drop off Day Info: Categories for Drop Off Day”…this will help you get your items organized for drop off. While your clothes/shoes are being inspected, you will be asked to take your other items to the “triage” areas. Don’t worry! We will have these areas labeled with brightly colored signs so you know where to go!
CAN I SCHEDULE MY DROP OFF DURING MY WORK SHIFT? NO, please schedule your drop off to be completed before or after your work shift. During your work shift, we will have other duties for you to assist with.
CAN I BRING MY KIDS FOR DROP OFF? We encourage you to find someone to keep your kids while you drop off in order to make your experience as efficient as possible. We know sometimes this is not always possible, so if you do need to bring your kids, please know that they will need to stay at your side at all times. Things can be a little crazy during set up & we don’t want anything to happen to your little blessings!
CAN I HAVE SOMEONE ELSE DROP MY ITEMS OFF FOR ME? You certainly can! It is not uncommon for us to have a spouse, parent or a friend of our sellers dropping off on behalf of the seller. Just be sure you inform the person dropping off that they will need to help place your items in the designated areas. Don’t forget to let them know how long it should take! We’ve had a few surprised husbands swing in on their lunch break to drop things off, not realizing how long they needed to stay!
WILL I KNOW WHAT ITEMS WERE CONSIDERED “NO THANK YOU ITEMS” AFTER INSPECTION? There will be a list of items (listed by seller number) available at seller pick up at Unsold Item Pickup. The "No Thank You" items WILL appear in your “unsold items” list online and they will impact your sell through rate.
CAN I GET MY "NO THANK YOU” ITEMS BACK? "No Thank You" items that are marked for donation will be donated. Otherwise, they will be placed in your Pick Up Bin or handed to you during your clothing/shoes inspection during drop off.
DON’T FORGET all sellers are required to leave a “Pick Up Bin” (see the top of this page!) at drop off (unless you are donating all items at the end of the sale). We will use your empty tub to sort your unsold items at the end of the sale.
SELLER PICK UP: SATURDAY, APRIL 13 … 7:30 PM - 8:30 PM
DID YOU MARK ALL OF YOUR ITEMS FOR DONATION? No need to return for pick up! Kick back & enjoy your evening!
SELLER PICK UP PROCEDURES As soon as our sale ends, our Family Helpers will pull unsold items from the selling floor & sort them for you. You should bring empty totes/tubs for your unsold items—-don’t forget that we will also have the tub you left at drop off.
PLEASE do not enter the exhibit hall before our start time! We WILL NOT be able to accommodate early arrivals!
You will park in LOT E at the Event Center & enter through the loading bay door. DO NOT pull your vehicle into the loading bay when you arrive.
Find your labeled tub (left at drop off!!) with any of your unsold items. Your “Seller Drop off & Pick Up” form will also be with your items. Follow directions on the form!
Prior to leaving with your items, you MUST have one of our Family Helpers check through all of your items with you at your spot. You will not be able to leave until this is done and you have a signed sheet for our exit person.
BE SURE YOU SIGN UP FOR OUR NEXT SALE FOR HALF PRICE REGISTRATION! We emailed you a link AND it is in our Sellers Only FB group! 1/2 price savings for returning sellers!
IF I MISS THE PICK UP TIME CAN I STILL GET MY UNSOLD ITEMS BACK? You can try!! We will direct you to our designated charities so you can see if you buy your items back following the sale! The money will go to a great cause!
💥IMPORTANT!!!
Before you head home, you will be able to TAKE HANGERS that were pulled during the sale to use at our next sale event!
We don’t store them or loan them out for the next season - what you don’t take during seller pick up gets donated to our charity!
IMPORTANCE OF PICKING UP YOUR UNSOLD ITEMS
We are unable to store your items after the sale - if you are unable to pick up during the designated times, you may have a friend or family member pick up on your behalf.
Any items not picked up during the designated pick up time will be donated to charities selected by Later Gator Sales.
Later Gator will not be responsible for missing or damaged items. (See your seller agreement)
Sorry, with the magnitude of our sale, there are no exceptions.
