sourcing wanted / matching items
Wanting to add to your collection? Have a dream piece you’re searching for?With item sourcing, we let you know the approximate price we would likely charge for an item in advance. If we find your ideal piece while out sourcing, we’ll gather it up and bring it back for you! It’s like having a personal shopper — just based more on time and luck!Note: We do not typically offer this service for items likely to cost $100+, BUT we would still be willing to add you to our list just in case!
identifying unknown items
Hoping to add to your collection, but you don’t even know what the item is or who made it? Maybe you’re nostalgic for a print or style you grew up with, or a beloved family member always used?We do our best to help you identify items in your collection as part of our sourcing service! Photographs of current pieces (including sides and bottom) are best! If you have older family photos with these items in the background, we can try from that, too. If all you have are your memories, give us as much detail as you remember and we’ll see what we can come up with!

sell or donate to us
Want to find a new home for things you’ve had laying around forever? We source our items in a variety of ways, so read on to see how we can help!
curbside pickup
A number of individuals we source from are seeking to simply offload a large number of items within a small window of time, often in advance of moving or selling a home. Many people have boxes taking up space for years and just want their space back!This is our favorite way to source, by helping others and keeping items out of landfills! Instead of throwing things away or struggling to find time to run to a donation center, contact us instead! We’ll find a time to swing by and load up whatever you’re willing to part with. Years of storage dust doesn’t bother and there’s no need to sort through in advance — just make sure we can access them.We are open to accepting any items, even modern ones or things other than kitchenware! Unfortunately, we can rarely take furniture due to vehicle space. Otherwise, we can try to help you arrange pickup from another local organization.10% of profits from the sale of donations go to local charities, such as humane societies. Anything not sold is forwarded to local donation and charity centers.If you choose to donate to us, please email so we can schedule a time to pick up. We’re often available to stop by within a few days.
how we give back
Helping others and contributing to our community is important to us. Here’s how we contribute and how you can help.- 10% of profit from all items donated to us go towards Ohio-based charities in and around Madison County.- Any unsold items donated to us are forwarded to appropriate local shelters and charities.- We regularly contribute food and books to Mt. Sterling’s Little Free Library, with plans to contribute to those in neighboring towns in the future.- A focus on sustainability. We take pride in rescuing what we can from landfills through our donation program. We also repurpose and recycle where we can. (Don’t be surprised if your dishes are packed with old wrapping paper!)
