I was told I would be trespassed from the store when I touched an article of clothing in front of me if I did it again. I’ve seen countless customers do the very same with no consequences. I don’t know why the managers are so harsh to the customers. This is the only place where the employees appear to be actively at odds with their customers. Shop at your own risk.

More reviews on GoogleAs a student from Goodwill English class, first time visited the Goodwill outlet store. A lot of used items with good condition.
Staff speak to customers as in a very demeaning and condescending way. They have rules around accessing the bins, however those rules are not posted. You learn the rules by being reprimanded by staff. They pull bins to reduce the number of bins on the floor prior to closing time, while customers are actively shopping. The folks moving the bins shout “TABLE! TABLE!” all day. You’re supposed to know what that means as well. They really take their customers for granted here.
Decent selection even for a wholesale thrift store. The store is cleanish and the bathrooms aren't bad. If you are at all squeamish about dirt and such, bring a pair of gloves for sorting through the bins. The staff is mostly friendly, though I wouldn't blame them for being a bit weary after some of the things I've seen people pulling in there. Know the rules for new bins and do not get in the way of the resellers. The parking lot is big but poorly upkept so be prepared for a rough ride. All in all, a good place to find those one-of-a-kind items or clothing in bulk.
A little dirty and crowded but if you want to buy a lot of things for prices by the pound then go for it. I love it. Great deals on many things. Here are some pictures of just a few of the things I was able to purchase the day I went. You just have to dig in the bins and really look hard, and you, too, will find nice things. Just plan on taking it home and cleaning it well before use. Unless its new items, which they have plenty of also. Plan to make a day of it. Monday is the best day to go I have found. Have fun!
