About Us

Welcome to Archive Room.

We’re two Melbourne mums who know firsthand how quickly wardrobes fill up especially when it comes to clothing. What started as a simple mission to sell our own family’s pre-loved items soon became something much bigger.

As we began selling clothing online, friends, family, and members of our community started telling us the same thing: “I’d love to sell my clothes, but I just don’t have the time.”

Between work, family life, and everything else that comes with modern living, many people have wardrobes full of quality clothing sitting unused. Selling each item individually can be overwhelming, time-consuming, and often gets pushed to the bottom of the to-do list. That’s where Archive Room comes in.

We take the stress out of selling by managing the entire process on your behalf. From photographing and listing items to communicating with buyers, packaging orders, and arranging postage, we handle the hard work so you don’t have to.

Our goal is simple: help people declutter their wardrobes, earn money from clothing they no longer wear, and give quality fashion a second life.

At Archive Room, we believe great clothing deserves another chapter. Whether it’s designer pieces, everyday favourites, or children’s clothing that no longer fits, we’re passionate about connecting pre-loved fashion with its next owner.

Thank you for supporting a small family-run business and choosing a more sustainable way to shop and sell.
