Habitat for Humanity The first ReStore opened in 1992 and now there are more than five hundred of them in three different countries. The goal continues to get money to build low priced housing and also to keep as many building materials out of landfills and dumps as possible. The different ReStores vary a lot in size, inventory and cleanliness. This is one of the larger and cleaner stores and you can walk around and check things out without feeling like you got cooties when you leave. A whole lot of different things are in the store, from large furniture items. appliances, electronics, paints and who knows what else. Of course the inventory is always changing so you never know what you’ll run into. The prices range from inexpensive to almost nothing and the people that work here are great. An interesting store and concept that does help makes the world a better place. And if you’re lucky, you just might find a real bargain.

Great concept, great cause, the volunteers are awesome, but this particular store is managed by people who should not be involved in customer service. I wont get into details but be sure not to lose your receipt. I will leave it at that. I have donated hundreds of dollars worth of stuff to this place. Never again.

This is one of my go-to places for furniture, home improvement items, appliances, hard to find items. And the best part is that everything, and I mean EVERYTHING is priced very reasonably. I’m not sure if they will negotiate on prices, I’ve never tried because I’ve never really felt that I had to… If you are looking for furniture or some special missing piece to your furniture that you can’t find anywhere. Or cabinets or lighting, or even looking to do some DIY projects …(the list goes on) check this place out! You won’t be disappointed.

This place is the best! Mary called and confirmed our pick up date and time, then the truck showed up early and picked up everything! Very professional and thorough! The ReStore has so many great items! WOW!

How did I not know about this place until now? I’ve been rifling through Goodwill and Savers, but ReStore is a whole different animal. The furniture is extremely high-quality and in practically new condition. I bought two amazing lamps(which must have cost over 100 each new) for ten dollars apiece. Tons of building materials too– I even bought screws and bolts for a DIY project. I will be coming here as my first stop every time I need anything for my house.

All you folks looking for a summer DIY project: here’s your place to get started. Restore is amazing! From vintage and modern furniture pieces to light fixtures, headboards, hardware — even stoves — it’s the perfect spot to get affordable pieces that might need a little touching up. Yesterday, I walked out with four bright blue shutters(project for a funky new headboard), a gorgeous vintage chair, and a ton of multicolored tiles(I’m working on a mosaic bench) for $ 35. The staff are helpful and the space is pretty organized — not as jumbled as you’d imagine for a thrift-type store like this. If you’re particularly DIY-savvy, this place is a dream — even if you’re not the project type, it’s still awesome! Win win.
