Habitat for Humanity & Habitat ReStore

You can call it luck to find exactly what you want, but We usually go in for one thing we need to finish a project at home and come out with 3 or 4 treasures. Service is always positive. They keep things organized. We also get a warm feeling knowing we are supporting Habitat for Humanity in our own community.

Very well organized, and since they have donations and support from some corporate sponsors, the selection of items is often noticeably different than the average thrift store.

Awesome non for profit department/hardware store. I actually worked here when I was around 20 years old and it's a great place where you can get all sorts of stuff including appliances,paint, flooring,furniture,lights,television sets,and lots of other stuff. The staff are mostly volunteers and all really great people aswell.

we found the store to be well laid out and clean withfriendly well informed volunteer staff .

Good way to help needier

a lot of stuff to go through... depends when you go there you can find great things... most items I did find are over priced.. counter tops you can't really use unless you pick something that's there and build your kitchen to the shape of the counter which doesn't make sense, but it all goes to a good cause so its always worth checking it out once in a while.

The go to pat answer when it is described as ridiculously expensive is but we are a charity

People who think Habitat's prices are expensive probably don't realize what is done with the money. Other charities with stores might provide food, clothing, temporary shelter, school supplies and the like. Small markups on small things can provide some charities with the funds to disperse the $100 or $200 their clients need until the next paycheque. Habitat is building HOMES, often in urban areas where property values are high along with the cost of materials and labour as well. (While much of the construction is done by volunteers and by the people who will reside in the house there are also trades, inspectors, regulators who need to be paid as well.) So next time you balk at a price in Habitat remember what they are trying to fund then think back and recall a time you wondered if you could afford your rent or mortgage payments. That might put the seemingly high prices into perspective.

Depending what you are looking for sometimes has a good selection.Some stuff is way over priced for used. They do get brand new unused items from home depot though, and they are sometimes the best deals.Lots of little things you wouldn't expect like vice grips and wrenches that are brand-new and quite cheep.As with any reuse it store it's a bit hit or miss but definitely worth checking out if you are trying to save a few $

nobody answer the phone ? just gotta do 1h drive to see if they have the item i want i guess . having a phone line could help
