I love this store. We live So far away, but it is SO great to go to! I drive for an hour to get there- Literally an hour just to shop! They have a great selection with great prices!! Amazing deals!!! I just LOVE IT! The people are always very kind and nice. There is one closer to me in shoreline, but it is not the same. Puyallup is the way to go!!!!!!! read more

A neighbor recommended Deseret for donations. I was highly impressed with the entire process. Organized, efficient, polite and thankful. As a curiosity, I ended up going into the huge, well organized store. The staff are well-trained, store is very clean, items are priced fairly. The experience for me was far better than any other thrift store. I'll recommend them and be a customer as well read more

What's the time the prices are pretty good here. Somethings different about the management though. The lady wouldn't give me a discount when there was a clearly a damaged bottom on a crockpot today. It was a tiny little thing. They wanted three dollars for it, but it was all crackle broken, and I asked for a discount and they didn't wanna give it to me, but the cashier also didn't like when I asked her for a discount. She didn't say oh I could ask for a manager to come and help you or anything like that she says we just can't do it do that so I just wish there was more flexibility with customer service. It used to be really nice. If there was a issue I had the manager was able to say yes but today they didn't say yes I didn't buy the pot the other two pieces I got. I'm really happy with the prices were amazing. read more

This thrift store is super clean & very well organized ! Everything is color coordinated on the racks, and a lot of the clothing has no visible stains.. much better compared to Goodwill! read more

Clean store where when you enter, you're impressed because the wall displays have tshirts stacked according to color, and that's really cool. The kitchen area is nice and organized, with pot lids sorted neatly according to size and dishes bundled in sets. The back room is kind of a mish mosh of stuff and not as organized, but it's still a fun place to check out because you don't know what kind of a gem you'll find. I found a quality car mat for $4 that needs some scrubbing, but was in pretty good shape. Prices are way cheaper than you'd find at Goodwill or Value Village. read more

The store is very clean and organized, and they have a ton of variety of things. I originally went in searching for a dresser, but ended up buying a love seat which was in pretty good condition for only $30! What a steal. Will definitely be back to look for a dresser some other time. read more

Im done! I really tried. The quality wasn't good to begin with. I started going because it was a fun thing to do with friends, and it was dirt cheap when they started. But lets examine the fall here, shall we? First off, customer service was always bad. I cant even list to you the amount of times I've gotten yelled at for being in the way by the previous manager, the bald dude. the employees would often seem on edge, and if there was a good employee the next times I went I would never see them again (seems like the good ones quit). They've changed managers to a lady, and she seems ok, but the quality of the customer service from the workers has totally gone down it seems. One reason I went was because I would get a damage discount on top of stuff that was already almost cheap. The old manager was sickenly sweet to me whenever I was with my mom, but seemed to hate me when I wasn't. I think this has to do with looking young. and although I'm glad it seems like hes gone, I reiterate the service seems to be even less quality. The reason I mention this is because I guess only the manager can offer damage discounts, and I didn't know this. This time I went last, not only did the girl at the front not offer to get the manager and just say "I cant change prices on items" blatantly, but overall didn't seem like she cared about the interaction at all. Which is fine, but don't expect me to come back. The list is long, so this was the straw that broke the camels back. The long list: I've been yelled at least twice that I can remember, there's been people at the front that can't even speak english so you cant really get help (not faulting them maybe, but seems like they should be stocking instead of up front), often the quality of the items is so bad. They didn't check the cds I got the first time I bought any, and one of the disks for the game I got wasn't in there to begin with, but I checked it too late so I couldn't get money back. The pricing is now on par with goodwill ($25 for a cast iron skillet, $8 for table cloths with stains etc) but lower quality than I find at goodwill; the time before last I went I 1) found a cookie and toilet paper inside one of the coats I tried on 2) saw poop stains on clothes on the racks 3) saw sticky substance on a book with what looked like (hopefully) dog hair). I've heard the previous manager yelling at the workers. I have overheard someone say someone has taken stuff out of her cart before to buy themselves. or maybe steal? idk. but I believe it. People will follow you and wait till you look at something with interest, then snatch it up after you walk away. To top it all off, you will still have to ask people to open up locked boxes for some items. I might have more that I remember later, but I'll stop here. If all of this sounds good to you, and you dont care? then that's fine. I will take me and mine elsewhere where I know there are both great deals, they know my name, and treat me well. Hope this was helpful to someone and thanks for reading! The discounts aren't worth it, and maybe never really were. read more

Women of Puyallup, beware of this man! He wouldn't have done it to me if I was a man. I was in the store today and was verbally accosted by him after he pushed his body between myself and my cart, and I said, "Really?" and he proceeded to curse me out. Several other women also witnessed it and were just as shocked as I was. I went to find a manager and was told, " Well, everyone's allowed in the store, so...." followed by blank looks. It was humiliating. I will never shop here again. As a woman, it is obviously not a safe place read more

Deseret Industries - Thrift Stores Near Me - Puyallup, Washington

Deseret Industries has a solid selection of secondhand goods. I've purchased driver golf clubs, puzzles, and a few other oddities here. Service is typically friendly and while I appreciate their mission, I am not a supporter of their religious beliefs so it is typically an absolute last resort for me to visit this establishment. read more

Ok first of all. The smell in here was so strong. Smells of the room freshener on steroids or on an industrial scale. Now, moving on. The store is well maintained. There is good organization. A wide selection of items. The staff are friendly and courteous. It's busy here. Lots of people. I found a vintage lamp valued $100, that I purchased for $8. If they could really tone down the smell, I think they would enhance the shopper experience. read more

Deseret is an alright place for thrifting. The clothing is very well organized by color, and care is taken with putting everything on the racks. It really makes it easy to look for something by size and color. The shoe section is also very nicely organized, and you rarely find shoes scattered all over the place, if ever! Some of the stuff is kinda dingy, but that's part of the thrifting, and there's quite a a bit of nice gems to be found. Kids clothing is pretty much sold between $2-4 and up, and it seems to be a set price without keeping brands in mind. Just be sure that what you buy can sometimes be cheaper on clearance at the actual store. I took off 2 stars because the store always has a faint scent of urine and stale cigarettes, and farts. Also, there's free parking infront, so be sure to stop in! read more

This DI was opened in October. Came here for the first time last week. The store is well organized and clean. The back room is full of stuff for the yard, holiday items, bikes and other large items. Didn't see anything I couldn't live without. Prices were indicated at a high price for used items. Friendly and helpful staff, especially Aspen. Tons of free parking. read more

Deseret Industries - Clothes is the most plentiful item - Thrift Stores Near Me - Puyallup, Washington

Large, well stocked, and clean. I mostly buy books there as they have a nice selection with 4 aisles. Their prices are a little high but not as high as the Goodwill nearby. They are super when donating. You pull into a garage area and they take your stuff out for you. It's the best. read more

When I walked into the thrift store I was surprised. It was clean and organized. They also have fitting rooms which most thrift stores don't have. read more

Good deals but it is a little on the pricy side. Lots of name brand items but they have colored tags off half sales like goodwill or value village. It is all set prices. It is a bit of a drive live in Auburn they are closed on Sundays. It is located in a huge , massive parking on that shares it with a church. Donations are around the back they take one car at a time it is next door to round table pizza. Store is clean smells like a thrift store dirty clothes . The bathrooms are nice and clean staff is a hit or miss usually not friendly the cashiers checking you out are friendly hit or miss once again. They play good music to shop to. read more

I went there to shop and they just brought out a new cart for the collectibles case. So before all items were in the case I asked to see something so Bradly said to put it in the case and then let her see it, referring to me because I asked to see it. I get the item and am looking at it and all of a sudden another lady said she had asked first which I didn't know about. So they took the item from me after they gave it to me and Brad said I will put it in back and bring it out later since there is a discrepancy. Then the next thing he tells the worker to give it the item to the other lady instead. No apology or anything for taking it from me and giving it to someone else. read more

I've been shopping the Puyallup store since it opened. The prices are mostly half of the Goodwill. The store us clean and does NOT smell, as someone said. The store is well organized and the workers are ALWAYS the most polite & helpful. And prices have gone up this past year, but still bargains. read more

The cashiers are SO rude here it's insane. Isn't this supposed to be a Christian ran business? I buy books from here all the time for my free little library and I'm a huge reader, I had 3 $2 books and 9 -$1 books and I misheard the cashier say my total was $39 because she has a strong accent so I did the math in my head and questioned the total and she made me feel horrible and she was SO irritated with me and I told her I wasn't trying to be rude, I just wanted to make sure I wasn't being charged $20 extra dollars than what I owed and she basically threw the receipt at me, so so rude and uncalled for. This place needs better customer service because they have awesome prices and it always smells good but your employees are making it a 1 star. read more

Every time I donate the young men look so dejected. Today I found out why. The "older" man who I assume is in charge comes out and starts yelling at them that "they are lazy and what are they doing just standing there!!" He did not see me since carts were blocking his view. He had a shocked look on his face and turned around and went back through the doors. YOU ARE THE PROBLEM!!! read more

This place was super organized, clean, everything easy to find, sizes labeled and put in Correct spots. One of the best thrift store I've ever been to read more

Highly DO NOT RECOMMEND this place. Visited this location and claimed 2 video games from the collectable case and was written up my tickets for both games, when I went to pay I noticed the games were missing from the case. I questioned where they were because you're not supposed to leave with the product until AFTER you pay and present the ticket, however an employee allowed another consumer to leave with the games although they were written up under my name. I still can't understand how this mistake is even made! On top of that the store did absolutely NOTHING to resolve the issue beside an apology. Customer service is NOT a priority, you would think that they would offer any item within the collectable case for the same cost of the games to make the situation right however management never offered anything besides stating that they will follow up with the employee and training which does absolutely nothing for the consumer that lost out, the company did not take any kind of responsibility and ownership in this situation. This is a broken policy that needs to change. Policy needs to change with collectible goods, info taken needs to include consumer phone number and photo ID to complete transactions. I don't wish on the employee to be fired however it's completely ridiculous of this careless mistake. If you do purchase an item from the collectable case, pay for it immediately then continue to shop for any other items you may want. read more

They don't test every item but mark them up as if they did. Deitful practices. They also cover gouges and marks with their price stickers. Not cool. read more
