Our story
MEET SCHELLENS
Schellens is a family-owned Prince Edward Island secondhand store for kids, created to make quality children's items more affordable, useful for longer and easier to pass from one family to another.
Why we exist
CHILDREN GROW QUICKLY. GOOD ITEMS DON'T HAVE TO STOP.
Good items often have plenty of life left. Schellens makes it fun and convenient for local families to buy better, spend less and give outgrown items a second life.
We started with one simple frustration: growing kids outpace their clothes, and the good stuff piles up in bins while the next family pays full price for the same thing. So we built a store where both halves of that problem meet — a proper retail floor with real departments and real sizes, plus an online shop of the same inventory that you collect in Charlottetown or Montague. Pickup only; we never ship.
What we stand for
THE SCHELLENS WAY
Family-owned
Run by one PEI family, with staff who know the regulars by name.
PEI-based
Bought locally, sold locally. Every item comes from an Island family.
Organized shopping
Departments and sizes clearly marked, online and in store, so a quick trip stays quick.
Quality standards
Every item is inspected before it reaches the floor. No exceptions.
Community-minded
Free Book Library, Grandparents Day and local team sponsorships.
Practical and low-waste
Good clothes get worn again instead of sitting in a bin.
BIG FUN. SMALL PRICES. SHOP • DONATE • DISCOVER.
