Cleaning house and found a bunch of new or gently used items, about $600 worth of stuff. Got screamed at by worker trying to figure out their disorganized drop off area. Second and last time this is happening. Left with my donations and found St Vincent de Paul donation truck in Fred Meyer parking lot. Super nice man thanked me and told him how I appreciated his kindness. JUST SAY NO TO GOODWILL!!! read more

My boyfriend used to drag me here to look for "treasures." Now I find myself not minding it so much. Really big store, clean, lots of items, and surprisingly really well organized. Movies, home decor, furniture, air conditioners, sports equipment, TV's, clothing, art, linens, collectibles; they have it all. I always immediately check out the book selection as soon as I come in. I've found some great deals! Most of the books are priced anywhere from $0.99 to $3.99, and a lot of them are in great condition! From there I will go hunt down my boyfriend in the Men's department where he is searching for Seahawks jerseys and nice work clothes. He has found name brand items such as Abercrombie, Ralph Lauren, Tommy Hilfiger, Lacoste and more - also in very good conditions. Pricing is pretty reasonable too, I don't think he's paid any more than $8 for a nice dress shirt. Sometimes I will wander through the knick knack section; I have a obsession with owls so I am always looking for cute little products for around the house. Occasionally I'll check out the dishes and whatnot, but I usually don't buy. AVOID THE TOY SECTION. You can't even walk down the aisle half the time, so many toys covering the floor. And screaming children. Lots of those. On the way out grab a flier from the cashier; it shows the different upcoming sales. Examples: certain weekends will be 50% off pink tags (there are a bunch of different color tags they rotate on sale) or like 30% off linens. Tuesdays are manager special days and you have to ask the day of what it's on. read more

Great place to buy clothes for low prices. And not only cloths. Will come again definitely

I go here basically almost every Monday morning, I get there before the store opens, the line of people outside, I got to say there are some rude pushy people that will do anything to be first in those doors and the ones clearing out the shoe racks with carts piled of nothing but the $1.29 shoes not giving others a chance to look. Some of the things are overpriced, I always scan on my phone things so I can make sure I am not getting a bad deal, I have scanned ALOT of things that are priced the same or higher then they are brand new in a store. They get things from Target that have been clearanced and then donated, they will leave the clearance stickers on the items then put a Goodwill price way over the clearance price, I mean really, remove the clearance sticker or put Goodwills price sticker over them, that is tacky. I pointed it out to the manager(a blonde/grey haired woman, said she was the manager) and she said if I won't buy it someone will, I mean really, it is a second hand store selling donated items, why would they have that mentality. I seen a bag that was there for 2 months, it had a price written inside, no color price tag attached, the same blonde head manager I asked if it was possible for a discount since it has been sitting there for 2 months, it was for 39.99, she said she couldn't do a discount because it had no color sticker, so another month in a half went buy and it was still sitting there. You can find good deals, but you have to look. I have found alot, but also found alot of bad deals too. read more

I had a box under my arm of a few things to donate that I was going to drop off on my way into the store. The outside attendant say "NO. You have to go back to your car and get in line and wait to drop it off". What?! I'm not going to sit in a line in my car just to drop off a few things, on my way into the store. But no, he wouldn't let me just leave it with him. That's to bad. Not only did I shop at goodwill a LOT. But a also donate a huge amount of goods every year. But no more. There are plenty of other places that I can donate to and shop at that are not so ridiculous and unreasonable. read more

I would like to think of myself as a thrift store aficionado. This Goodwill just doesn't fit the bill for me. Maybe it is because they are busy all the time, but I can't really seem to find anything good. Usually at other locations, the clothing is somewhat up to date. Not here, 1980 called, they want their ish back. I am not going to pay $4.00 for something that has holes in it, sorry, no dice. It's true, this one is big and they have a lot of crap, but is just that, crap.. Score of the day, Kevin Durrant Sonics jersey for the little man for a $1.49. read more

Nicest goodwill I've ever been too (I'm not from around here). Lady up front that rung me up was the sweetest kindest lady I've ever met, workers EVERYWHERE keeping the store organized and 2 employees at the fitting rooms where there are almost never any. Love it! read more

Note to self: Next time, don't come here after already hitting up an estate sale and another thrift store. There are far too many treasures to leave empty-handed, only because the car is packed to its bursting point. read more

I really like this Goodwill and of all the Goodwills in the Seattle area, this is quickly becoming my favorite location. A few reasons why this is the case: * Large selection. The amount of stuff to choose from here surpasses most locations. It's as if it were the south end's headquarters or something; seems to have about twice as much as your average Goodwill. * Decent prices. The prices here are always good, lower than other 2nd hand shops. * Organization. The whole experience is more pleasurable when you can see what you're looking for (or rather NOT looking for), and staff are frequently roaming the floor to rearrange things. If you're in the south end and feel like hitting up the Seattle Goodwill but don't want to deal with the drive, this is the perfect choice. The amount of stuff they carry will be enough to curb your major-thrift-store craving. read more

This is my favorite Goodwill location. I love getting a good deal, so this is my first stop when looking for clothing or books. The store is large and well organized, and always has a good selection. I seldom leave empty-handed. They often get overstock from Target (with the tags still on!) so I can get the brands I love. Like most Goodwill's they have daily specials on a particular colored tag (usually half off) for an even better deal. There is also ample parking. read more

This place is huge and satisfying. Like a large slice of cake. I will drop by whenever I'm in the area (not that often) and see what I can see. For furniture, go to the thrift store across the street and west a couple of blocks. They have an entire back room for couches! Yow! read more

re: stopping by This place is pretty packed and very busy. For some reason, I think it's a lot tighter here in terms of space, so I thought the shelving was pretty close and the aisles are not as wide. I could be wrong though. Had to wait for parking as that was packed too. Yes, I went on a Saturday, so if you're looking to shop here. It's probably best to do so during the weekdays. read more

I'm bored so I'm finally getting around to writing this review. I attempted to donate some furniture here in June 2019. It was a dresser and a futon. The dresser was old, had been painted by the previous owner, had some small dings and paint chip marks on it, but not broken anywhere and very sturdy. The guy managing the drop-off area flipped his lid when he saw it and refused to take it, saying it was "too damaged." I cannot stress enough that the "damages" were a handful of moving dings and some scuffed paint. He went on and on quite angrily about how no one would buy this thing and all I could think about is how I'd love to show him the condition of the various pieces of furniture I've bought from Goodwill over the years. I later learned that this has been Goodwill's new thing, to get really really stingy about what they accept so they can sell things at a premium. I'm happy to say that I have not since nor will I ever again attempt to donate to, or shop at, Goodwill. read more

6 CDs for only about $18??? NICE! I was pleased to find some like-new CDs for artists I like (Matthews Band, Lenny Kravitz, Black Crowes, etc.) for only $2.99 each. Had to sort through to see whether the CD cases on display had CDs in them but this made the search more fun. They also had a big selection of VHS and DVDs and video games (PS2, mostly). read more

Recently, I made a donation to Goodwill and my car battery died just after, leaving me stuck at the store. One of the donation staff (with the blessing of his supervisor ;) helped give a much needed jump start. I was and still am super grateful. He refused a tip. Wish the world was filled with more people like this, thanks again!! read more

Waited over 30 minutes to donate a two tables. The legs had been removed for transport. When we finally got to the front the the line we were told we would have to assemble the tables before they would take them. If this rule had been posted on the website or in line we would have assembled them during the excruciatingly long wait. We left with the tables and will never make another donation. read more

I just had a really bad experience at a Goodwill in Lacey while I was down there visiting family. I decided to try this Renton location anyway in hopes of finding what I want and getting great customer service. Long story short, I was in and out within 10 minutes and left with a great deal on a pedestal table and received awesome customer service. They have a huge selection on furniture (at least when I was there) and everything seemed fairly priced. I will definitely head back over there to find the perfect chairs for my table. read more

I want goodwill to know I appreciate you people putting in the hard work you do! Thank you!

Bad selection, long wait times to drop off donations. Should have gone to the Seattle store.

The manager followed me around the store the whole time I was there. When I was checking out, he stood at the counter watching. I felt violated, and like they were treating me like a criminal. They discriminate here, do not shop here. read more

I used to love coming here, but now its not fun anymore. The prices are crazy, the service is terrible and if you try to get a good deal the manager bites your head off. He is rude and inconsiderate. I'm just disappointed in Goodwill now, now I'm paying full retail prices for someones used stuff. and the production manager Lisa is also rude and bossy and inconsiderate read more

So much cheap stuff! I'm amazed people just give away some more thing... The service is nice and helpful

Meh. I shop here a lot, and the prices have really gotten out of control. 9$ for jeans, 6$ for tops. Heck, I can go to target or old navy and buy that stuff brand new. I wanted a new pot with a lid and they where all 12$ and more. For used beat up pots! I like going because I can find some unusual items, but the pricing has gotten unreasonable. Also, that parking lot has turned into a mad max like experience. read more

Worst goodwill I've ever been to in my life! Soooooo unorganized and junky! ! Furniture covered the entire front sidewalk. Very tacky. I'd understand if it was sunny and they were having a sidewalk sale but it was drizzling rain and all of it wad getting ruined. Inside was a horrible nightmare. Nothing looked good. It looked like someone took a dumpster, put explosives in it blew it up and they called it good. Avoid asy all costs. Prices were high. Only Good thing was the short line and what I described above explains why none wad purchasing anything. read more

I love goodwill, their prices are pretty phenomenal, however when trying to get customer service the manager there was extremely rude and disrespectful, not to mention he wasn't really getting my question. His name was Hard-deep I believe. Just because of his service I most likely will not be returning to this location. I did get really great service in the fitting room though by a short girl with curly hair and a great smile. I think her name was Sheena. read more

While I can certainly find some good things, I was disappointed by the selection. The Goodwill in Monroe is so great that I was expecting a similar experience here. Not so much. read more

Donation line can be a bit long and slow, if you plan to donate make sure you don't have anywhere to go right away. Traffic flow is also a bit chaotic, and definitely don't park near the donation line or you may get blocked in. read more

This is the best Good Will I have ever been too. They have a better selection than any other location, including the location in Seattle on Denny Way. I just wish they had a better turn over rate. I recognize that Good Will can only put out product that has been donated to them, but You see the same stuff on a daily basis. So going in weekly is about the best frequency. I have a friend who goes in daily, he must not be in there every long. read more

These 5 stars are for George the supervisor for the merchandise take in. I got there 2 minutes after closing and he made my night. This was my 3rd stop to a goodwill today. I didn't realize they closed an hour prior to the actual store closing. He saved they day. After moving all day. Thank you George. read more

So I have expanded fish day territory to southern king county. On the way to one of the fish stores I decided to make a pit stop at this goodwill and woahhh I'm glad I did! Once again I constantly hunt for fish related things and I have found some amazing deals thrifting but this time I hit the motherload! They have a pet section that was filled with fish tanks and supplies nothing I needed. However as we left I found a HUGE fish tank from the dimensions it was at least 75 gallons for 8$!! It barely fit in my car but it was worth the hustle. This easily is one of my 3 best finds at any thrift shop. This location is huge and clean! I'll stop by here on my way to Sierra next week. read more

Awesome staff, great collection. Cleaner than other goodwills in the area. Parking is rough but worth it.

Friendly and helpful staff. Large selection and very clean. I always find something. You have to be willing to spend some time browsing but I've found some really nice clothes; never ran across anything that is stained or torn. Very reasonable pricing. Great vintage clothing. I've also found some really good antiques over the years; a beautiful sideboard for $25 plus picture frames always under $10. Wide selection of furniture/household goods in great shape. Awesome used book selection! Seasonal section is great too. Large dressing rooms with minimal wait time if any. Parking is ample. Huge selection of odds and ends in the case as you walk in. Several items appear to be brand new. I've also found several high end shoes and purses. read more

The best thrift store around! I love their variety. This is a large store. There is always at least one hidden treasure. The service is nice. I have no complaints at all. read more

The best goodwill to go to for furniture or kids stuff! I make a weekly visit and am never disappointed. Great quality stuff, lots of name brands! Staff is wonderful and helpful as well read more

This location has a total lack of appreciation for donations or customers. I know that it is a busy location that funnels probably literally tons of items through it so they just don't care if you donate there or not as there is likely no shortage of "one man's trash is another man's treasure". That said though, a smile and/or "thank you" would go a long way towards normal expectations of business-to-customer decency. I have made several weekly donations recently over the past couple months and, no exaggeration, not a single loader has said "hi" or "thank you". Instead, before anything else can be said or done, I've gotten reprimanded each time for not following their newest rules of where to pull your car to make the donation (aside from the fact that no matter how small the donation they won't accept walk ups, it has to come directly from your vehicle). Every time I come to donate, I follow the rule that I was yelled at about during the previous visit (which was probably no more than a week prior) and now it is a new rule so I'm doing it wrong again. On each of these visits, no employee has been outside directing anything (except the time I waited 10 minutes in the "old" drop off area before someone came and told me to go back around and get in THAT line over THERE where I waited another 10 minutes). There are signs that vaguely say "Goodwill donations" with an arrow in some general direction or say "One car at a time" but the signs don't say where you should go one at time with said car. Once the loader has finished scolding me, they then will grudgingly allow me to unload my items, standing there silently while I down troddenly hand them small items and they watch as I carry larger items myself to the bins or sidewalk. Once the items are out of the car, I have never received a "thank you", just a flat "want a receipt". I quietly say "no thanks" (which I know is dumb - I should be claiming this stuff on my taxes) and I get in my car and numbly leave. The whole experience is humiliating and very frustrating at the same time. I haven't donated at other Goodwill locations in a long time, so I can't comment as to whether this is a general trend across Goodwill or not, but I can say this Renton location is without a doubt an extreme disappointment as it relates to donations. read more

It's pretty clean. I found a very 70's dress for only $5.95. I would go back there when I drove by next time.

We won't be back at this store again. The guy that takes donations yelled at myself and husband today for walking yes WALKING up donations. He wasn't kind at all. However this is the same guy that almost touch and took something out of my daughters hands the last time we donated. We will be supporting someone else for here out! read more

This Goodwill is by far the best thrift store I've experienced, good selection, and a lot of people are actually donating nice stuff! As anyone else hit by the economic downturn can attest, it's great to get a good value, and folks you can stop looking, it's right here on Sunset Blvd. read more

Waited for an appointment nearby and found some high-quality, second-hand goods at the same time. Made for a productive afternoon.
