Volunteer Info - Get to SHOP first BEFORE everyone else!!!!!
Earn extra commission and pre-sale privileges when you volunteer at Wee-cycle Mart!
Our Volunteers get to shop first to get the best selection because without our great volunteers, we would be unable to coordinate such an exciting event! Thank you for taking the time to consider helping us with our sale! Volunteering is fun and you'll meet other great moms just like you!
All 1 shift volunteers get to shop on Thursday night at 5:30pm. (1 1/2 hours before New Moms and Consignors)
All 2 shift volunteers get:
- to shop on Thursday night at 5pm. (2 hours before - you will practically have the sale to yourself!)
- to shop Sunday 50% off day at 9am - 1 hour before we open the doors to the public!!!!
Volunteers are asked to provide at least 4 hours of their time.
As a volunteer you would be assisting us in the following areas:
- set up/taking down of racks/shelving, (we really need husbands to help with this!)
- check-in items
- working the door (taking food donations and admission fee)
- organize & help customers during the sale
- check out customers - (de-tagging, no handling money)
- and other responsibilities as needed.
YOU DO NOT HAVE TO BE A CONSIGNOR TO VOLUNTEER!
To sign up as a volunteer, please REGISTER and you will have the option to schedule your preferred shift online. You will not have to register as a consignor if you do not want to.
Don't forget that husbands can sign up to help too. We have several volunteer opportunities for MEN and we are in need of filling those volunteer slots. Duties may include set up of racks, security, and other duties as needed! Work a shift with your husband or send him in your place, either way YOU still get the extra commission for him volunteering!
Please review our Volunteer Guidelines before you commit to a shift.
Other Volunteer Benefits...
- Consignors who also volunteer for ONE SHIFT, receive 55% on your consigned items and have your registration fee of $5 refunded to you after the sale. (Quick Drop Consignors get 35%)
- Consignors who also volunteer for TWO SHIFTS, receive , 60% on your consigned items and have your registration fee of $5 refunded to you after the sale. (Quick Drop Consignors get 40%)

Of course if you've been to our sales before you know why getting a Pre-Sale pass is soooo worth it!!! You may earn additional commissions by referring friends to consign with us! You get 2% more for each friend that consigns at least 20 items with us!
(Earn up to 100% commission by volunteering and referring friends!)If you are not able to volunteer your time, consider bartering! You don't get extra commission but it WILL get you in to shop 1st!
Bartering
- If you know someone in the media and can get a story done about us on a local TV station or have a story printed about us in a local newspaper, you can earn one or two presale passes, depending on the coverage.
- If you are willing to put our car magnets on your vehicle for 3-4 weeks prior to the event to help us advertise the sale, you will receive a presale pass. There are only a limited number of these bartering opportunities available.
- If you are willing to place 10 yard signs in your neighborhood or surrounding area advertising the sale, you will receive a presale pass. There are only a limited number of these bartering opportunities available in different areas. We will ask that you provide us with a list of locations where the signs have been placed.
- If you are willing to take 200 copies of our flyers to area daycare centers, churches, summer camps, schools, etc. you will receive a presale pass! There are only a limited number of these bartering opportunities available in different areas. We will ask that you provide us with a list of locations where the flyers have been left and an approximate number of flyers at each location.
If you have any other ideas to barter services for a pre-sale pass, let us know!!
