Geartrade Launches Consignment Model for UnNew Outdoor Gear

After two decades serving as the go-to marketplace for outdoor enthusiasts to buy and sell used gear, Geartrade has more in store: a consignment selling option to make it easier to sell used outdoor clothing and gear.

Customers can send in their gear, and Geartrade takes it from there. Designed to reduce seller friction and improve the purchase experience, Consignment makes it easier for outdoor adventurists to reclaim their gear closet.

This investment in the experience of Geartrade.com is the result of Geartrade’s dedication to advancing a waste-free circular economy. Since 1999, its mission has been to keep people in the outdoors and gear out of landfills. And that mission is thriving—a vast community of users list, sell, and purchase their gear on its platform every day, keeping quality gear and apparel in use while giving their wallet a boost.

Now, in response to customer input, it has added a consignment selling option alongside its traditional marketplace model to make the selling process as easy as possible.

In addition to the consignment selling option Geartrade has committed to become Climate Neutral Certified. By partnering with Climate Neutral it can leverage its expertise as it starts the process of working toward carbon neutrality by measuring and offsetting its 2020 carbon footprint and then working to reduce future emissions.

For added sustainable goodness, Geartrade has partnered with the noissue Eco-Packaging Alliance Program. Through its partnership with noissue, it is able to provide customers with fully compostable mailer bags and packing tape as it strives to eliminate plastic use. As a partner of the noissue Eco-Packaging Alliance, it also is committed to plant trees through One Tree Planted for every order it places with noissue.
