Great vibe! The shopping center is sketchy but once you go inside it's a nice atmosphere. Great finds and name brand items.

Will goodwill pick up my sofa?

Hi Cynthia, We do not have a pick up service. If you are able to drop off, we would appreciate and gladly accept sofas that are in good condition. Thank you!

Do you have to schedule a donation drop off or can you just show up?

Donations can be made when you show up in the back alleyway and someone should be there to accept them. If you have a large amount of items or very large furniture items, it may be a good idea to call ahead to confirm. I would also suggest dropping… Read more

This is a very clean, well organized, open, and airy Savers. The moment you walk in you notice that…read moreit's very spacious and very well organized. The store has all of its various sections separated so that you can easily find whatever you're looking for. Whether you want to come in to shop for home goods, knickknacks, jewelry, electronics, books, records, CDs, or either men's women's or children's clothing, it's very easy to find the section that you're looking for. FYI, they have restrooms in the back if you need to take care of that type of business. As is the case with all Savers, the prices here tend to be a bit higher than other thrift stores chains. This is not so much a criticism, it's just something to keep in mind. This is not say that you can't find that great deal. It's just that if you're looking for that cheap shirt, pair of pants, jacket, or whatever else, you may not find it here for the price you desire. In terms of parking, they have a large parking lot directly in front of the the store. This lot is is shared with a few other businesses. Though during peak hours,, it's sometimes can be a bit hard to find space, generally you should be able to find one without too much of a problem. Overall, if you want what Savers has to offer, this is a very nice store, with a very nice staff to find it.

Where to begin... I recently went here, donated some items,…read morethe area was clean, and the team outside were very helpful. I went inside and the mood shifted, clothes were off the racks, books were stacked on each other, toys on the ground, and the home goods area was a MESS, and there was an employee sitting on the furniture at the front!! When I went to check out, the line was long, the registers were moving slow but I can't blame them, they had no help! There was what looked to be a manager walking between the registers, he was talking more than he was helping. I didn't catch his name but he had a hat with a beard. He seemed to be very "close" with the employees, lots of laughing and touching. I feel like there is a lot that can be done to improve this store, more specifically, the management on the inside.

Everything from accessories, Handbags, to clothes and footwear. Definitely an upscale resale shop. I found the prices pretty good with some high end items. After hearing about the purchase policy, I will be looking to expand our relationship from being a customer to becoming a selling agent/customer. There is an additional 25% of savings to be made. What a great find!!!

Went in to sell, brought it in one trash bag which is no longer accepted, so the girl at the counter said to put my items in a basket. She already seemed annoyed at the fact that i brought in one trash bag with clothes, and then started to tell me repeatedly at the things they were taking: "we are only taking things for summer, so no jeans no sweaters, no long sleeve tops" I said okay but she kept repeating herself and i finally said okay i get it, im just going to put it in because some of the items are name brand, is that ok?" she said "yeah we can take a look at it" She definitely had an attitude and was very short coming. So I added workout clothes as well (lululemon sport bra, summer clothes people are outside and working out you know). Anyways not even like 10 minutes go by and my name is called which is weird, because I put in a lot of clothes like linen pants, body suits, crop tops, etc. Another girl then tells me they didn't take any of the items today. Mind you I came in with a full bag filed with clothes, you're telling me not ONE piece was taken? That's complete bs and I know it was done on purpose because of the girl and her attitude. I was really shocked so I just said "oh really?, ok" and left. This was the first time I've ever been declined of selling my clothes, and I used to come here for years... I didn't even want to donate the clothes there like I usually have done in the past, went instead to Goodwill where I know my clothes will be much more appreciated. Drove 14 minutes out to Buffalo Exchange in Fullerton and immediately got better customer service with friendly employees. Sold a few of my clothes as well. So save yourself the hassle, drive a few minutes out to Fullerton and sell your clothes there.

Prices are consistently good, and I like knowing they're doing meaningful work--it makes me feel better about both shopping and donating here. They usually have a half-off sale toward the end of the month (worth planning around), and the rewards program is a nice little perk--you'll randomly get a few dollars off here and there. I almost always leave with at least one or two gems and today I found exactly what I needed to finish up staging a house.

I come here on a weekly basis and also visit other Salvation Army locations, and this one has some of the best customer service out of all of them. Unfortunately, that has not been my experience at some of the other locations. What really makes this location stand out is the staff. The workers are what make the shopping experience better. Their kindness, helpful attitude, and positive energy make such a big difference and make people want to come back. A good staff can completely change the feel of a store, and that is exactly what happens here. Please take care of this team because they are the ones doing all the hard work and making this location such a positive and enjoyable place to shop.

Register Staff were very helpful as a few of my tags were printed and unreadable by the scanner so she had to manually input 7-8 items. Today's discount was 50% off silver tags. As I was waiting in line I spotted a tote bag tied to an end cap, I went to check and it was a gorgeous coach bag priced at $50 with a silver tag FOR 50% off!! I felt like one of those thrift store influencers on social media!! I also found a dress I liked but saw the tag was $50. Sounds crazy for thrift so I checked the label and it was 100% silk at 30 % off. I did try it on and took it home.

She stated that they are closing when it's 45 to 30 minutes before closing and i was never treated like this as avid shopper of 7 years at this location. please do something about this i would love to visit the store again when i'm not harassed and yelled at for shopping
