Is your wardrobe bursting and you simply need more space for your new clothes? Read on for 9 ways you can clear your wardrobe and earn extra cash in Singapore.
1. REFASH
If you’re like REFASH founder, Aloysius Sng, and you’ve noticed a growing percentage of your closet space is taken up by clothes that you barely wore, then this is a website you might want to visit! Basically, REFASH is an online community dedicated to serving ladies with similar fashion styles to buy and sell their pre-loved clothes. If you’re not a fan of online shopping, you’re in luck because REFASH also offers offline services.
If you’re looking to use their offline service, you will have to request for a “Top Up” via your REFASH offline seller account. You can then drop off your items at the Refash POMO Store or request for a courier pick-up.
*Ppst, do note that REFASH.sg will charge a 19% handling fee per sale!

2. StyleTribute
If you find yourself nodding your head in agreement to StyleTribute’s unique perspective – sell what you own and buy what you want – this is for you! Similar to REFASH, StyleTribute is an online website for ladies to cash out their wardrobe to fund their next CNY lookbook (or just the next shopping spree). At StyleTribute, you can choose from two methods of selling – DIY Upload (where you can earn up to 80% of the sale price of your item) or the hassle-free service, White Glove (where you can earn 75% of the sale price of your item prices at S$1,000 and higher or 70% for items under S$1,000).

The flea culture in Singapore is definitely not dying down even with the rise of online and mobile shopping. If anything, flea markets are again, becoming the next big thing. It is also becoming the “cool people” place with rad venues like Marina Bay, Singapore Art Museum and the usual, *SCAPE (yes, it is still around). And booking a venue at these flea markets is much easier than before. Simply book a venue here, bring all your barang barang and start selling!
5. Karang Guni

6. H&M Singapore Garment Collection Initiative
Well, you might not be able to earn extra cash from selling your clothes to H&M, but you can earn brownie points by contributing to environmental efforts and get a special discount off your next order with them! And the best thing is, you can donate clothes from any brand. Yes, they will even your old camp t-shirt from 2001. Simply head down to any of the H&M outlets in Singapore and drop your old clothes in the green boxes located near the counters.
#7 to #9 may not let you earn anything. But, hey! It is always good to contribute back to society y’know 😉
