Habitat for Humanity Columbia ReStore

I love this place. Love it. Seriously. For anyone who does not think they can furnish an entire house for a respectable (TBH very inexpensive!!) price, while still looking rather expensive - THINK AGAIN! All you need is an open mind, some spending money, and some available elbow grease, and you can find some truly beautiful things. More than that, we’ve bought paint, mirrors, art, etc. We even furnished parts of our wedding with vases from here. All in all, it’s amazing here. To everyone donating, please continue to do so. We love it, and thanks!

Staff are usually helpful and friendly. Sometimes you can find good bargains. The lighting recently was replaced, so it's easy to see inside now. The location is a little difficult to find the first time since it's tucked away in a business park. It seems like the store recently got better organization, but there still are lots of bins full of random stuff which makes it difficult to shop. Inventory seems like it doesn't get turned over much, even though the storage area always has a lot of product. However, it looks like they're finally getting more product on the floor and out of storage. A lot of tradesmen and lower income individuals shop this store, so good stuff probably gets bought right away. A lot of things are incomplete, broken, or misleading. I saw some strip lights I was in

My husband took lawn and garden tools to donate. He was met by a very courteous worker and was directed to back the car up the ramp. He was immediately met by friendly staff to help him unload the tools. we are very happy with the entire operation.

Was kind of messy, items WAY over priced for things that were broken or missing parts. It also smelled bad. BTW, if you are in need of easy entrance (wheel chair, walker access), their outdoor elevator is broken and looks like it has been for some time.

Plenty of space for improvement! Not every item had a price tag on it. Cashier was slow and never smiled at the customers. The restroom smelled bad. Not enough parking. Delivery trucks/vans were taking up most of the space, most of the time!
