The ReStore is an amazing place to shop for used furniture, antiques, appliances, used kitchens, paintings, home décor, doors and more. Every visit to the ReStore is different, and every purchase helps support our home-building projects in our community.

ReStores are able to provide tax receipts for any donations estimated at a value of $100.00 or more.

Donated items will be valued based on the quality and condition of the items upon the day of donation, not the original purchase price or previous state.

You can expect to receive your tax receipt within 30 days of your donation.

Please be advised that we have temporarily paused our residential donation pick-up service due to staffing shortages. We are taking this time to redesign this program so that we can better serve our donors and customers. Our aim is to relaunch a new and improved residential donation pick-up service in the fall of 2022.
