I met with "Arthur" for job placement. Its only 11 miles from my address but after meeting with him, and he was 10 minutes late. Arthur walked me to his office and said he needed my resume. If he told me in advance, I would have printed it out, so I said I would email it. I left his office pleased that he could help me right away. I had some adjustments, but finally I did get the resume the next day. I made 4 follow up calls... he did not have the professionalism to call me for either of the positions I was led to believe I qualified for, and he knew what my priorities were. He NEVER called me to tell me either way Yes or No ... after letting me believe I would receive a call for the CNA job I needed placement help with. Very disappointed with this man. I went to this location because someone in my family did CNA training and my husband got job placement for trucking at a Goodwill in West Sac. This guy LEFT ME HANGING! ALL BAD. IM MAD. I found my solution with my CPR/First Aid instructor from Heart to Heart in Westminster and Coast Education Center in Anaheim CA Thank you for going the distance for me... GOODWILL IS BADWILL!

One of the few places around that still cares for people. I lacked the proper skillset for a career and they assisted me in expanding those much needed skills. I was taken in for the C.N.A./C.H.H.A. course at a low course fee, and was given the highest instruction and mentoring. The counselors there want to see you succeed. I have since recommended multiple people to them for various career instruction and guidance. Thank you Goodwill SOLAC and the wonderful staff who care so much.

this is a fairly small thrift store but has all the basics: clothing, shoes, home furnishings, various accessories,etc. The staff seem to be friendly enough but the prices are high and nothing makes up for that at this store. If you run a thrift store, especially at this location, keep the prices low unless you have something special worth the extra few bucks. I have seen many clothing items that should be $1.25 going for $4.99....not o.k.

These stores really exaggerate with their prices. I think is better to go to Ross or Marshals to get nice items almost for the same price and brand- new. Goodwill has items for $3.00 that are being sold in 99 cents stores for less than a dollar. It seems that they only put prices without comparing. They also sells shoes that are torn and the soles falling off for $9.99. How come? That is not fair!

Horrible service. Told us they would not accept our donations because they were scratched. Extremely rude. I will never work with Goodwill again because of this place. Maybe they should stop wasting so much money on TV commercials and instead use that to help the people they are supposed to be helping.

I am constantly donating to Goodwill & have been doing this for over 10 years. I know that people are in need these days even more so I try my best to make everyone happy. I am going to see about working @ Goodwill p/t just to do a little more! When u treat people w/respect, you will receive the same!

Staff is genuinely nice but do not know what theyre doing and apparently management either. Jan the manager is completely lost and out of place. Coming from someone that is part of management at a distribution location, everyone here should be trained again as well with management.

Great customer service great selection but prices are incredibly high for a thirftstore... Im not over exaggerating at all and they do not have half of days when certain tags are half off like ALL IF THE OTHER GOODWILLS.. THATS VERY DISAPPOINTING...

I called Goodwill in reference to having donations picked up from my home, and was told that they were on hold until January which seemed odd with Christmas in a couple of weeks when people need things the most. I was very disappointed.

I just want to commend Goodwill on the all the service they give to our local community and also appreciate the good deals you can get at the Goodwill. I am happy to support them whenever possible and encourage others to do the same.

I was shopping with my 90 yr father. The staff, including the manager were rude to him until they found out he was with me. I guess they dont feel the need to act like adults when the customer is to old and frail to complain!

Roger Wu

I shopped there and paid for it by Credit Card.. when I checked statement it said I paid Janet McCarthy instead of Goodwill. I can see how the money can benefit Janet but how do they really help people?

Muy caro,pues es de segunda mano y casi cuesta lo mismo que lo nuevo.

Ron Barry

Prices could be less for being a thrift store. Charging prices that they compare to online is not right. They recieve the products for free. The staff is awesome.

Jeff Lincoln Boulter

They recently went through a small reorganization of thus goodwill and its a lot more clean and comfortable to shop at. Staff is friendly and helpful

Anthony Peppers

Dropping off old clothes that I dont need anymore. The place is right down the street from where I live so dropping off my items was very convenient.

Brian Perkins

Wide variety of adult Mens womens and childrens clothing and babies and shoes! Wide variety of household goods all at very low reasonable prices!!

Joe jr Rodriguez

Edgar Salcedo

Great service very friendly. Not the best goodwill store I been to as fat as variety of items. But still a nice big store none the less.

Robin Walker

The staff here are extremely helpful and keep the place neat. Goodwill isnt that cheap anymore. It was $19 for 3 long sleeve shirts.
