This place is the final resting spot for all the stuff that didnt get sold in the other Goodwill stores. There are bins piled high with clothes, books and everything else you can think of. The place is full of people shopping and looks dumpy. The reason I gave it 5 stars is because they are staffed by people who are physically and mentally challenged. I absolutely loved seeing all the people who probably would not have been employed elsewhere, being given a job that is honorable and meaningful. Although I will probably never find my way to this store again, I want to applaud what this Goodwill store is doing, the benefits of which goes far beyond profit and loss statements. I have not seen this hiring policy repeated in other Goodwill stores, (in spite of their commercials) so maybe this is a special place indeed. It is fun to go rummaging through the bins, kind of like a scavenger hunt, to see what you might find. While I was digging through the book bins, a guy picked up a book I wanted. He had two shopping carts full of books. I asked him about the book he had in his hand and he put it in his cart and continued digging. He said he had a store in Jacksonville and came that day to buy books, which are sold by the pound. I personally think that is an expensive way to purchase books and can do a lot better at my local library used book store where books can be purchased for ten cents. I actually heard one lady ask her friend on the way if she had fun! I know I did. It felt like I was on the hunt for buried treasure. In places like that you never know what you might find. Keep on digging.

We didnt have much time to look around because we got there at about 3:45 and they announced shortly after that everyone had to get in line because they were closing at 4. My wife was in line while I tried to proceed to walk through the aisles and see what else they had and a woman (I assume the manager) with quite an attitude yelled at me n a few others looking around that everyone had to be in line now. Other than her bad attitude towards customers and even it seemed the way she spoke to other employees it seemed you could get descent deals.

Im a fan of this goodwill, I like digging through the bins and finding random treasures! Sure it smells funny sometimes, but you have to remember you are digging through all sorts of random stuff that people donate, you never know where it came from. Be prepared to be on your feet and bending over the bins the entire time. It is certainly not a quick stop in. Sometimes you can find pretty nice brand name thing! Cant beat buying clothes by the pound! I once found a short sleeve wetsuit...i think I only paid about $5 for it!

Went there yesterday to find out their hours of operation have changed now they open at 7:30 am to 2:30 pm and they take away the bins by 2:00 pm. This is why I only gave them 4 stars!! Overall although I arrived at 12 pm was still able to get some good stuff, from Kenneth Cole, Ann Taylor and some Banana Republic clothing. You cant beat the pricing on clothing is 1.49 a lb. Spent $30 and got about 36 items at about .69 cents ea. Great deals

The store was very nasty. The inside of the clothing bins were gross and dirty. People acted like they were in a panic tossing items everywhere. We love thrift stores and have shopped them for 30+ years. This store unfortunately was more like a junk store. Maybe they didnt have time to clean or put new product out, dunno. Dont waste your time, serious diseaster.

This is an outlet store where you rummage through items in bins and they sell it by the pound. 60 cents per pound pretty much of knicknacks, can be confusing for a first timer. They have all these rules where you have to park your cart alongside a wall while you look, but its pretty cool though, this is about as close to dumpster diving as you can get...

Its what you would expect for a bins experience. Its chaotic and you should come prepared with bags to store your finds in. Carts have to be placed against the walls. There are always an array of characters there. The scores are fun and usually always a great pile to leave with. Pricing is by weight and the checkout lines take an especially long time.

This has to be the worst shopping experience Ive ever had. The entire store smelled strong of urine. People where throwing clothing everywhere and where extremely rude, as if there were not enough filth to go around. We left empty handed, thankfully. Id avoid this place. filthy, dirty ,nasty!

Items sold by the pound no matter what you buy. Lots of digging in rolling bins overflowing with bedding, clothing, toys, books and much more. Hit and miss so visit often.

Great deals but super busy and takes forever to get rung up. Almost everything sold by the pound. If youre not braced for that, it can get overwhelming.

Its a training facility for the real store located near by. Its always crowded and you have to rummage through bins and try to find what you want.

Wonderful staff. They sell by weight here. You can find alot of great stuff if you dont mind siting through the bins.

If you are not able to afford clothes: go there. I refer clients of U.N.I.T.Y GROUP SERVICES INC to this store.

Kathy Jacobi

Great deals but lines are always long and the cashiers take their time. Otherwise, I love this place!

They could do a lot better when it comes to customers service, not the helpers its the employees
