Know of any place to sell used scrubs?

Specializes in Ortho-Trauma, Neuro Critical Care.

Between moving into a new house and both my hospitals going to standardized scrub colors, I'd like to sell my old scrubs. Can anyone recommend a place to sell used scrubs? Ebay and Cragislist both seem too vague in terms of categories.

You are probably better off just donating them to Goodwill or the Salvation Army. Even if you are able to sell them you are likely to get pennies on the dollar and in the long run it won't be worth the effort.

Maybe a consignment shop?

Problem with a consignment shop is that they are probably going to take 30% of whatever the scrubs sell for which is likely to be in the $1-$3 an item range. The best bet is to just donate them to the goodwill/salvation army and take the tax write off.

Garage sale?? I bought some scrubs for around $5.oo a piece last week.

Save a few of them in case you get a side gig, or even change jobs.

What about donating them to your local women's shelter? women frequently arrive with just the clothes on their backs and need absolutely everything. Diaper are a very frequently requested need and greatly appreciated donation.

You could also freecycle the scrubs.

I'm currently looking for Scrubs and I don't know where else to buy used scrubs, other than eBay or Craigslist, but I can't afford new. It seems ur best bet is to post there. Also I think Facebook has online yard sale dealies.

Sometimes you can find used uniforms at thrift stores.

It's very hard to find quality Scrubs in thrift stores in my area. Lol
