Salvation Army

I donate clothing, shoes, books and more at this location every year. Only word of advice? Ignore the men who stand outside and insist that you can leave your bags at the entrance. What you should do is walk INTO the store, and place your items in the room to the right (in the back). Then walk to the counter, fill out the donation form with your information and leave a carbon copy there.

Donated my child’s old stroller. This location though not convenient if you drive is close to the subway and the location was pretty clean. Since I had to double park, I quickly dropped off my donation and ran back out.

Love salvation army. Went here after the going to the one on Quincy street. I got three things here, high waisted jeans, an olive green pinafore, and an american apparel dress, and it all came round to $ 22. Too bad they were all pink tags and everything was 50% off but pink tags. The world hates me but I think I got a good deal ‚)

Really fun place to go to and they always have great sales/​deals! My only critique is that if you aren’t there during a special/​discount day, items are WAY overpriced.

One of my favorite shops of all time.

I love thrift stores in yard sales and usually I like to go to the independent ones but the salvation army is unbelievable that such a big selection I highly recommend lots of designer names. I’m new to the area and havnt been to many thrift stores yet but I will be surprised if there is a better Salvation Army!

Poor selection and extremely rude and unhelpful staff. A lot of the shoes and clothing isn’t even in wearing condition. Definitely the most disappointing thrift experience I’ve ever had.

Never bought any clothing here because despite being twice before, I still don’t know where the women’s clothing is, but I don’t think I would want to buy clothing from a salvation army store. However, this review is for their music (CD) selection and the books. Awesome. Scored some great books for like 98% off retail. One of them was about $ 1.50, hard cover and might have been read only once. I had also been looking to read this book but did not want to pay $ 24 for it. You sometimes have to dig through the book boxes, but it is so worth it! I think I just gave away my secret.

Really like this salvation army i found a gap sweater almost brand new i really didnt look at everything my cousin rushed me but im deff goin back

I am not sure if it was to do with this store in particular but I filled out an online application to pick up a sofa bed and a bed from the Salvation Army. They did say on the form if there were stains on the sofa they would not take it. FINE… the sofa was two years old and then bed part/​matress had been slept on once so it was in good condition. The guys showed up and took photos, then had to wait for his boss to approve it as they actually sell the furniture and the money they get they give to the help… In the meantime he took 2 lamps and 2 rugs. A few minutes later the guy said my boss doesn’t want to take them! And he walks out…
Great I have one day to move out my apartment and no idea how to get my stuff out of my place. Had I of know this was going to happen I would of got my movers to take it downstairs the day before and I would of left it on the street. So just be warned THEY WILL NOT ALWAYS TAKE YOUR FURNITURE. PLUS DO NOT LEAVE IT TO THE LAST MINUTE LIKE I DID… You would of thought they would of been only too pleased to have been given great furniture. The reason I was giving it away was because I was moving abroad…

Horrible spot. Smelled disgusting in here. There might have been a good selection, but honestly we had to get the hell out of this place before we passed out. Also everyone we came upon was rude. I hate places like this.

Came here last week to drop off some clothing for donation. Good place to come to along with a few others around the location to donate previous and still wearable clothes and threads. Also a good place for thrift shoppers for very low prices…

Always a great selection of jewelry & dishware. The clothes… I never have patience to pop those tags since I’m usually in & out immediately after donating stuff. But that jewelry always grabs my attention on my way out! Strategic placement, Salvation Army. Well played.

Large store, but no fitting rooms. Lots of things seemed promising but didn’t pan out.

I don’t shop at Salvation Army but they do generously accept donations. Last year when I had to pack up all my childhood possessions to move I had a ton of books that I while had a great time reading when I was a kid didn’t read them anymore. And since I have no children of my own to pass them onto I was in a desperate need to fine some place that accepts donations and don’t have such a convoluted process about it.
I came with a huge box told an associate that I wanted to donate some books and they directed me to their back room where I put down the box and let another associate in the room know what it was. They asked if I needed any documentation for a tax write off (there’s a form for that). I told them no and I was done. Easiest donation experience ever.

I often find myself here, whether to kill time or scour the racks for clothes despite my impoverished state…
I found great jeans here for $ 2.50, and a sweet handbag for $ 10, and I’ve had my eye on many a home furnishing that are similarly well-​priced. As much as I wish things were better organized – or at least organized in a different way than by color – there is some fun to be had in making that great «find» so come and hunt for your second-​hand treasures!

This Salvation Army is dope. I go in there once in a while when I need that cheap fix. I’ve gotten some really cute vintage sweaters in here last year and my total was under $ 30. The selection is also well organized, I never have a problem browsing. They are under expansion right now which means it is probably going to get more crowded. Everytime I go back there is more and more people. Then again brooklyn overall is getting more and more crowded. Go figure!

Me gusta. THIS SALVO is great for shopping for parties and everyday essentials. I go to many themed parties throughout the year and this place is so clutch. We had a hawaiian themed party at the end of the summer and I successfully bought about 10 hawaiian shirts and some dresses in that mix oh yea and a killer 90s visor.
They have racks and racks of women’s and men’s clothes. Often these are jumbled — I found men clothes in women’s and vice versa.
The lack of dressing room is stinky but thats why I wear leggings and a camisole under my clothes.
I love going to thrift stores for good finds like vintage clothing that was once really expensive. The salvo in Chelsea is better for those expensive brands for nothing prices.

This location is surprisingly large, with an extensive selection of all sorts of clothes. They have other items (books, furniture, CDs, records, VHS tapes and more), but it’s mostly racks and racks of clothes. I was fairly disappointed in their selection of men’s t-​shirts, but overall the prices were pretty good (the one shirt I contemplated buying was $ 0.99).
Be advised that this is the Salvation Army though, and they don’t have money for any extras, like air conditioning, or dressing rooms. So it’s entirely possible that you will see fat, sweaty men trying on clothes in between the racks. Think about that,* and remember why you wash anything you buy at a thrift store before wearing it.

*I know, it turns me on too.

At 6’6″, I’m never been much for vintage clothes shopping, but there’s plenty of that to be had here. A large, high ceiling space, relatively clean with a friendly staff. There are sales on certain colored tags periodically.
They have a fair amount of knick knacks, and upstairs there is more of a selection of furniture, records and electronics.
I almost purely donate to this location, so enjoy my old stuff!
