You can find second-hand school uniforms through local school shops, community Facebook groups, and online marketplaces. For a safer and more organised option, Rethread offers a dedicated platform where parents can browse pre-loved uniforms by school, size, and condition.

To buy a second-hand school uniform, simply search for your school, compare listings, check sizing, and choose postage or local pickup. On Rethread, you can filter by school and securely check out while your payment is held safely until delivery is confirmed.

Buying or selling second-hand school uniforms saves money, reduces waste, supports sustainability, and helps families access affordable school essentials. Platforms like Rethread make it easy to shop pre-loved items while contributing to a circular economy.

Most schools accept donated old school uniforms for their second-hand shops. You can also donate through local charities or textile recycling programs. If uniforms are still in good condition, selling them on Rethread helps other families access affordable, sustainable options.

Old school uniform recycling can involve donating to textile recyclers, upcycling them into new items, or passing them on for reuse. Selling second-hand on platforms like Rethread extends a uniform’s lifespan and helps reduce textile landfill in Australia.
