This is both a Goodwill store and career center. It appears this location may not be around for long since apparently they're getting a brand new store on October 26 2026. It's hard to get a parking spot here because of the career center. This is one of their smaller format stores where 3/4 of the space is given over to clothing and all the merchandise and housewares are featured on short aisles towards the rear. The store itself is really cluttered and all the shoes and knickknacks are piled on top of the clothing racks. The reason for two stars is that they will not let you use the bathroom here. We were told we had to walk across the bridge and use the McDonald's. Not my favorite Goodwill, nor did we find anything worthwhile read more

I love coming here after work. I almost always find some items I like. Recently I went there after work and found a ton of skirts for the office, all nice brands and good quality. I do feel like some of the clothes is not tagged correctly in size, but I completely understand that that can just be blamed on the clothing industry not correctly sizing items. The staff are very nice, and the store has a lot of inventory, and new items often. Parking is easy as well, and in a nice area with a lot around it. read more

Of course! Here's a friendly and engaging review that matches your tone: I kind of want to gatekeep this spot, but this is hands-down my favorite Goodwill for clothing. I always score the best pieces here--especially when it comes to jeans and dresses. The selection is surprisingly good, and the prices are super fair (which isn't always the case at other locations these days). There's also parking, which makes the whole experience way easier. And if you're donating, this is one of the smoothest and most convenient drop-off spots around. Definitely a hidden gem for thrifting in the area. read more

*°*°*°*°*°*°*°*°*°*°*°*°*°*°*°*°*°*°*°*°*°*°*°*°*°*°*°* I attended the December 2023 Arlington VA #Goodwill #Meetup. (What a great way to close out the year!) These events are always fun, especially since the store opens an hour early exclusively for Meetup members. This was my first time visiting this location, so I was eager to attend. The store was clean, organized, and the employees were eager and ready to greet us shoppers...and there was a BUNCH of us. Here are a few pics of what I got (and didn't get). This store had plenty of high-end items (e.g., Gucci, Louis Vuitton, etc.) I'll definitely be returning soon. __ I thrift. @DCthriftish I eat. @f.hux read more

This was my first time here at this Goodwill. Mind you I love thrift thing. The store was a little on the small size. The only problem was not with the merchandises, but with the cashier that attended me, he was very rude. After he rung up all of my stuff, he asked if I wanted to donate to help the disability people and I said no so he proceeded with payment and I paid and he didn't even have the audacity to fold my clothes or hand me my receipt. All he said was there's your receipt. Have a good day. And I had to pretty much gather in a bunch my clothes and stepped to the side to fold it so I could carry it in my hands. They don't offer bags either. read more

I love the mission of the organization and its many incredible initiatives. The staff are warm and friendly and I have been to a few of their events. I can't recommend it enough read more

Every single parking spot in the Goodwill lot was occupied (as was the lot in the next but connected shopping center) on Monday 1/2. I guess the whole town of Arlington was off work and was at Goodwill donating. I came to donate a few bags of household stuff and wanted to see if the store had a few items I needed. However, I didn't get to go inside at all, just interacted with the donation attendants outside (and donate, at least). It took a couple minutes in line waiting for others to get done. The donation attendant was friendly and helpful. The way that some cars are allowed to parked, you cannot exit (as an in-store customer or as an in-car donor) unless you go through the donation line that wraps around the building and wait until all the previous donors have donated, so when I went around the second time to park, I had to reenter the donation line. Terrible layout! I would not return to this location. Several other Goodwill locations in the northern Virginia area do not have this problem. read more

Overall, not a bad experience. It was my first time coming this Goodwill and as expected, it takes time to find good pieces. The experience was made enjoyable by thrifting with a good friend. Though some pieces were stained / didn't fit well, there were some gems that were definitely repairable on a DIY level. If you have the patience to sort through the store and are looking for certain pieces, chances are you may find something good read more

Solid inventory regularly replenished, friendly checkout staff. You have to dig, but you can find good finds. I've found purses, wallets & lamps here. read more

We always drop off all of our donations at this Goodwill. It's very convenient because you can just drive up and the guys help you unload. We have also found some treasures here for Halloween costumes, furniture, and a variety of fun stuff. I always love this Goodwill. read more

I decided to enjoy the beautiful Saturday weather and do some thrifting. This is one of two good wills in the area. There is a decent amount of parking And if you are a patient you will get a space from someone coming out. This is a medium sized store but it is well organized and the selection is decent. read more

This Goodwill smells like somebody's old gym clothes that have been in a locker for six months. I have only noticed this in the past 3 months. I am a regular shopper. read more

Store it's overpriced! Items ruining from $20- $200? That's insane! Also, this handbag is fake, how are you selling a fake bag for that price? manager and management has lots touch with the real purpose of Goodwill. I heard a lot of employees at that store saying that the pricing is due to the new resellers that get merchandise. However, Even if that's a problem, why does Goodwill cares? All these items are donations! Someone needs to make this location be far more responsible when it comes to pricing and moving merchandising. There's plenty of times that what they have it's old, rip, in bad shape. Anything that's half presentable it's price as a boutique price. Completely frustrating read more

This is my go-to place to drop off donations, whether books or clothes, electronics or kitchenware. The line moves quickly, the staff work hard, and the location is convenient. read more

The donation process is fairly organized. The guys taking donations can be really rude. I was loudly chewed out today for bringing a shopping bag of clothes over to the donation area from my parked car ten feet away. Half a dozen guys were standing around with no one in line. It's not very clear where they want you to donate bags when you're parked. I apologized - and the employee yelled at me AGAIN. read more

In addition to being a huge road hazard on Glebe this is easily the most overpriced thrift store in the area. They sell used items for new prices, which would explain the massive pile of quarter Century old electronics. read more

This Goodwill has made a return to its former glory. It's a great place to shop and donate. On every recent trip I've found some gems in the store and the racks themselves have been tidy, which is no easy feat for the staff. The checkout layout with a clear queue is better than many other Goodwill locations, where it's unclear how people should get in line to pay. Plenty of parking--except at the busiest times--and a clear set up for how to make donations. read more

Bad experience here leaving the parking lot as an employee decided to yell at me. They need a sign labeling where they want people to exit, because if you follow the arrows, it looks like a dead-end in the back. When I tried to call the store after leaving and being yelled at, they just hung up on me twice instead of letting me speak to a manager. Needless to say, I won't be back. I even left a message for the regional manager and got no return call! read more

I LOVE Goodwill, and especially the locations in Arlington. The staff was helpful, and I most of all I left the place with fabulous finds!! Mismatched mugs of beautiful colors, lots of good quality pyrex and Corningware dishes, small and big, and greta pillows and abstract art for our guest room. Fun way to recycle and do good. read more

The restrooms and shopping areas were very clean and well kept. The supervisors or managers interaction with some of the junior employees was impressive. He was patient and respectful of his employees and I felt that he should be recognized for his service. The selection of items in this store is very good. We saved quite a bit by stopping in here. read more

I love this place I find lots of cool stuff here I recommend u go there there is lots of pretty clouthing read more

Had some time to kill and stopped by to check it out. The store is two level and they had alot of stuff. Everything was super high priced. Found a cute bag but it was broken for $9.99. Didn't find anything cute. read more

I hate coming here and I hate supporting goodwill, but in the DC area there's not a lot of options for donating old items. The store itself has nothing useful in it, just the standard odds and ends Goodwill decides to re-sell. I've tried to find things there on numerous occasions but I suggest you just go to another location or antique shop or something--just not here. We usually just drive up with our stuff to drop off. The people working outside aren't very nice, the line to drop off is always way too long, and there's trash strewn about everywhere. I just don't have anything nice to say about this location. read more

Truly the worst goodwill in the DC area. I went and attempted to purchase a sweater but was stopped because there wasn't a tag. After asking if I could pay the maximum price, wait a few hours, put the item on hold or do anything to get it, the cashier rudely laughed at me and said "that's illegal". Certainly not illegal. This woman was truly rude and was not interested in helping me. I understand goodwill is a thrift store, but there is no reason for employees to treat customers any differently than they would at a target or other clothes store. Then, I went to return a past purchase and learned goodwill only accepts store credit. I did not know of this and it does not affect my rating, I only mention it to let others know. read more

I'm so fortunate this location is around the corner from my place. I've never been inside to shop. I hear you'll find amazing items. I'm here to donate two bags of clothes. Efficient and friendly volunteers. I've never had a problem. There's always a line of cars waiting to donate items though. Have patience. read more

Goodwill - While in line to drop off these clothes, I'll snap a pic. - Thrift Stores Near Me - Arlington, Virginia

This place leaves you feeling violated because they have turned a "donations" center into a "dumpster". The workers literally throw or toss your gently-used donations made in good faith, onto bottomless heaps of "stuff". This place makes a mockery of giving perfectly usable donations for someone else to re-use, by acting as a "smash and trash" intermediary. Dinner plates and porcelain cups neatly packaged into boxes are carelessly thrown. I've seen a computer printer be flung. Shoes? You may take a few pairs, but they will end up as odd shoes missing their pairs after they are tossed into jumbled-up bins. The drinking glasses I packed into strong liquor store boxes with dividers must have cracked after those men tossed them (mind you, this is after I looked them in the eye and told them it was a fragile box of dishware and glasses!), This operation desecrates the concept of donation for someone else's re-use. With the lackadaisical and rough mishandling of donations, it sets up a culture of "donation" that basically offers a way to "dump" with a veneer of charity. If you are simply looking for a way to get rid of your stuff and want to feel like you have "donated it", without giving a second thought to it, then you will feel at home here. (See below for alternative places to donate items for re-use.) I couldn't feel worse about this place, especially from the way I have watched my well-intentioned "re-use" items be mishandled here. The workers here are clearly not enthused by their job. Friends have advised me that the Annandale Goodwill store is much better because they handle donations with care and with grace...as if the things will be repackaged and sold for charity. Since I've been coming here for over a decade, I have investigated alternative Arlington-based options for bonafide, well-intentioned donations that you too might be interested in: Freecycle-DC (online); Online Yard Sales (Arlington/Falls Church); The Columbia Pike Thrift Store (run in a very organized manner by middle aged ladies who are wholeheartedly invested in a re-use and charity economy), No One Left Behind (a military-affiliated organization), and Homestretch (Falls Church) Any of the above beats seeing your perfectly good donations be mishandled and roughly thrown onto a heap which may, or may not, ever be sorted out and end up with people who might viably still use it. Let me not even get started on their disorganized car park, where you will have a cluster of at least 20 cars idling on a hot day (in a "line") creating noxious levels of air pollution and carbon emissions. This place is #Not Cool. read more

I thought thrift stores are places you go to find bargains. Goodwill has changed. A lot of the things here are over priced and comparable to retail prices. I thought goodwill gets donations so to see these prices was alarming. "High end" items were behind the counter inaccessible and when you ask for help, it takes a long time for anyone to show up and they seem unhappy to be working there. A Kate Spade bag was marked 79.99. I'm thinking I could find a better deal elsewhere. I frequent thrift stores to find bargains and one of a kind items. I guess thrifting is now trendy and goodwill has caught on so they have jacked up prices. read more

This is one of the worst Goodwill locations in the area--it's located at the intersection of Glebe and 50, right off the exit. If you come on the weekend there is a steady line of cars extending to the road waiting to drop off/donate items. That makes parking a pain--people are arriving and leaving but with the cars waiting to donate it's slow-moving. Even getting out of this location is tricky in particular if a car is trying to turn left out onto Glebe. This may be an okay option during the week with less traffic. The store itself is clean and well-organized but I wouldn't say it's well-stocked. It's a decent size but walking through it had nothing exciting and just the general type of things you'd expect to be donated. There are better locations in the immediate vicinity. If you don't want to deal with the donation queue then you're better off with Purple Heart of an organization that will come to you to pick up items. read more

I regularly donate to this location. All the donate items are in great condition for resale. Today was my last time I donate to Goodwill period! I had a container with mix items, the attendant was extremely rude, was just standing and not offered any help ( I am handicap) to the contrary he directed me to the far away container want me to dump the books there and the rest of the items on different bins. There was a bin for MIX ITEMS but he wanted me to assorted the items there. Was also a long line. What is the purpose of a mix donation bin you get reprimanded by an attendant? I took my donations to Salvation Army. No Management response either. read more

No no no no no. Never again - I used to donate once a week and now I'm never coming back. The two employees - 1 bald with glasses the other 1 rude were so verbally aggressive It makes NO sense why two adult men would speak so aggressively to anyone The harassment from these two people makes me think they can't be fired. Also, I asked for both their names and they refused, the assistant manager didn't give me the name of anyone, I didn't get a single contact person. These are people who can't be trusted. Something very suspicious is going on here because no one is willing to give you information. I will never come here again because I know managemnet is not taking accountability and this if something were to happen you're situation might just go unnoticed. They won't fire this person and I rather throw away my shit in the trash than to have to talk to people who hate their life so much they can't stand to be around people for 5 seconds in the time it takes to drop things off for donation. I'm pretty sure all the reviews related to how horrible experiences have been taken place are all from the same person but there is something unethical going on because no one is taking accountability. Do not come here it's potentially dangerous. The manager better not reply to this review with apologies - I want that guy fired if you have any respect for the constituents that give you their FREE things youll remove a person that is clearly costing you so much business. But hey it's a charity so I'll just take my wealth elsewhere. I'm definitely going to corporate - these are non taxed companies and you need to do better. Sad - I pity everyone who works here I can't imagine how horrible it is to work there if people like that guy are your co workers. Note: all the "good reviews" are from a year ago. All the bad reviews are from this year. Don't be fooled Visit shift: Sunday 5-6 pm read more

As an avid shopper I have to say I often frequent this goodwill. I have found a lot of great items! Sometimes the line gets long so be prepared to possibly wait in line. read more

I come here too often and probably give way too much money to them aka I have too much stuff. I would consider myself someone who isn't materialistic, but this goes out the window as soon as I see that cute dress with the tags still on it or the vintage jewelry that is in the glass case when you first enter and occasionally a good pair of barely used shoes. That's the benefit of shopping at one of the Arlington location. People barely use their items before getting rid of it so I can get my hands on them. What to know: - This is a donation center - They have 1 main floor that offers both furniture and clothing. - It's super clean - Generally really nice and helpful associates This is my main Goodwill and I like I said, I always find the best gems here. read more

One of the boy and I's side hobbies is making it rain at the local Goodwill. This particular resale shop is one of my favorites because: 1) It is attached to a donation center so you can drop off your junk before filling your car up with more junk (TREASURES) inside 2) Somebody with amazing music taste died and donated all of their vinyls to this particular shop. When I say amazing, I use that term lightly. I have very eclectic music taste so if you are into Whitney Houston, Wham, Lionel Ritchie and bluegrass this is *SO* your store (and please be my best friend too!) 3) This place does not make me sneeze like other thrift stores read more

Pretty darn good Goodwill! I've been here twice and I've had positive experiences both times. The key to a great Goodwill is donations and location. This location has great finds and the staff is very polite. Note: if you're trying to donate please call before coming out. They tend to only take items for a while and then stop for weeks. So make sure you know when to donate and have patience -- the line of cars for the donation center is very very long. read more

Very easy to donate items. Check their website before you go since they don't accept everything. I went with a couple of huge bags of clothes and they had a semi parked in their parking lot with a bunch of volunteers. They took them from me and loaded them directly in the back and gave me a blank receipt. Wow, that was easy! Wandered inside and found a dollar store vibe, and about the same sorts of treasures. Most of the electronics are very old and dirty. Furniture is the same. While ikea is now junk, it at least doesn't look like junk when you first buy it. The best buys here are the books, which range in price depending on size, not condition. read more

It was an ok, small store. Most of the good stuff had been pulled and put into the "boutique" section where it was super over priced. There were some nice items there but a very small supply of clothes. Fitting rooms are still not open. read more

I had inquired to my friend how much I loved the decor of her place and she credited this Goodwill as her main source. I decided to check it out last week and ended up getting a lot more than I had planned. I found a working 42" tv for $69.99. Great deal! They had a pretty good selection of furnitures, clothing, shoes. It's great! I definitely feel like the items put out are well selected and in good (if not great) condition. I also got a barely used French Connection spring jacket, a nice Banana Republic dress for the office, a nice sized wicker basket to put rolled towels in, and a set of two ice trays. If you're new to the area whether for work or school and need household items, I would definitely check it out. If you need work clothes, professional attire, funky pieces for a costume, this is the place! Happy shopping! read more

I have had THE WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE EXPERIENCES HERE TWICE on account of manager Kristen Whi. Who is RUDE, "Selectively" kind to people, EXTREMELY UNPROFESSIONAL, and VERY IMPOLITE! I shop at all of the Goodwill Stores in the Washington DC Metro Area AND average 20 or more points per month and Consistently this store has proven itself Subpar! It is Disorganized, the Staff has NO idea what's going on, and the management ever since Zach left has been on a downward Spiral! I used to go there a lot until Kristen insulted me personally at the cash register and had the nerve to ask me to round up afterwards. They hold things for "some people" and out things back for others. I felt very mistreated! Save yourself the stress of digging through the trash! DO NOT GO THERE! My hands start to itch when I leave there! If you have allergies wear a mask or gloves and bring sanitizer! I CUT MY FINGER on a piece of glass when I reached down to grab something! I mean It's just Absolutely HORRIBLE and the Stuff is Not-that Great JUST GO TO ANOTHER ONE avoid the hassle. Now Round that up! read more
