Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is unique about Consignment Furniture Depot?
A: The Depot is not a thrift store, flea market or garage sale. The Depot utilizes a 6,000 + sq. ft. showroom to display and sell new and previously owned upscale, quality home and office furnishings and home accessories, all with your convenience in mind. Our stock comes from the Atlanta area’s better homes. We maintain consignor contracts for 90 days resulting in a constant turnover of quality goods promoting high, repeat shopper traffic.

Q: What items will The Depot accept?
A: We are interested in any attractive piece that would fit in the home such as: furniture, framed artwork, area rugs, lamps, and larger home accent items. Consignment preview service may be arranged for your larger home items or you may bring your items directly to our showroom. We do not accept mattresses, bedding, electronics, appliances, camping or sports items, organs, plastic lawn furniture, grills, clear glass items or miscellaneous dishes.

Q: What are your hours?
A: Daily consignment hours are 11 AM to 6 PM on Monday through Friday and 10AM to 6PM on Saturday, 1-4 on Sunday.

Q: How do I find out if my items will sell in your store?
A: Please take a picture of the items and mail, email or drop photos by the store including your name, address and phone number. From the photos, we can determine only items that are popular and that will sell.

Q: Are my items marked down over the 90 day consignment period?
A:We mark down consigned items 10% every 30 days

Q: Does your insurance cover my items when they are in your possession?
A: The consignor retains ownership and title to all articles consigned to Consignment Furniture Depot as outlined in the Consignment Agreement.

Q: I only have accessories to consign. Do I have to take photos of these too?
A: No. With accessories and rugs, we need to visually inspect each piece. Generally it is easier to bring the items directly to the store.

Q: How do I find out how much you will price my items for? Who sets the price?
A: This is important. Priced too high—the article won’t sell. Priced too low—it’s unfair to the consignor. We would not be able to determine the price of an item until we physically inspect it. At that time, we jointly determine what price to put on your item.Using the information that you supply about items you wish to sell (original cost, last cleaning or reupholstering, overall condition) and merging that with our knowledge, we feel that we can obtain for you the best return for your merchandise.

Q: What percentage will I make selling via Consignment Furniture Depot?
A: We are partners with you on a 50/50 basis.

Q: What happens if my items don’t sell?
A: Items that are desirable and priced right do sell. Should your item not sell within a 90-day exposure in our showroom, you may reclaim your item or elect to donate it to our designated charity. Keep in mind items remain on the floor and are available for sale until you retrieve them. We prepare the paperwork and arrange delivery verifying your donation to the non-profit agency. Items not claimed within 5 days will become property of The Depot and not retrievable.

Q: Do you have people available to help get things from our truck/auto into your store?
A: No, we do not. Please bring someone with you to assist in loading and unloading your things.

Q: Will you load any purchased items into our car/truck?
A: No, unfortunately our insurance prohibits this. We will, however, get any items you purchase to the front door.

Q: How do I get my furniture to your shop?
A: We recommend excellent companies that will handle your things with care and courtesy:
