The Closet Standard

We’re picky on purpose.

We only accept the kind of quality you’d be proud to put on your kid. We inspect every item by hand, and reject anything we wouldn’t put our own kids in.

That’s what makes the closet worth shopping.

Questions

Everything you might be wondering

How does swapping work?

Send, earn, swap, repeat

You fill your swap bag with the clothing and toys your kids have outgrown and send it back with the prepaid label already attached. Every accepted item earns a credit, and credits are what you spend in the closet.

Do I have to send something in before I can shop?

If that's what you prefer, either way works.

Most choose to send their items to earn their first credits, but you can buy a starter pack and shop now if you see something that catches your eye. Your first swap bag will be shipped to you either way.

Who pays for shipping?

Round trip shipping is included.

Regardless of which plan you choose, two shipments per month are included. Your order always comes with next month's swap bag included, and prelabeled, so you can spend the month filling it back up and just pop it in the mail.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes, from your dashboard, anytime.

The "manage membership" button on your dashboard cancels it. You'll be able to use your swaps until the end of the period you've already paid for.

@jenniesidequests

what happens to your kids’ stuff after you donate it? turns out no one knows.

I went looking. Resold nearby? Shipped abroad on a pallet? Shredded?2 Which of those, and how much of each, nobody has measured. The EPA doesn’t count what goes to charity for reuse at all,1,2 and in 2024 the GAO told Congress the data is too thin to work with.3

These were things you chose and paid for. You have no way of knowing whether any of it got a second life. Neither does anyone else.

Here, I can answer it, so I’ve been keeping track since our very first bag. There isn’t much of it yet. When there’s enough to be worth reading, I’ll publish it.
