SERVICE DETAILS
The Polwarth Preloved Sale is a baby, toddler and children's second hand sale which raises money for local Edinburgh charities and usually runs twice a year.
Next Polwarth Preloved Sale is on the 22 April 2023.
All sales are run on a non-profit basis with all proceeds going to local charities or other worthy causes.
There is often a queue for the sales before the doors open, we would advise buyers to get to the church early if they can.
The sales are often extremely busy therefore we advise that buggies or prams are not taken into the sale halls. There will be space to store your buggy so you don't need to bring it into the space.
As the sales can be extremely busy, we advise buyers where they can, not to bring small children, it makes for a more enjoyable experience for you! Typically, over 7800 items are sold in total from the Spring and Autumn Sales!
We also have teas and coffees and a great selection of home baking to recharge you during the sale!
