Items can be put on hold for two hours without payment. ReStore doesn't accept returns, so we give you time to be sure that the item will fit in your space. Just ask the cashier for a hold slip to put on the item you're interested in.
Items can be stored for three days. This gives you time to figure out how you are going to get your item home.
Sign up for our Hot Deals email. The email tells you what’s on sale now, what to keep an eye out for, and lots of other good information about what’s happening at ReStore.
ReStore does not negotiate, so the price you see on the tag is firm and final. If you'd like to save money, you can receive a coupon for 20% off your purchase with each donation you make to ReStore.
Every ReStore purchase or donation helps create, promote, and preserve homeownership opportunities in our region. When you donate to ReStore, you're also helping reduce waste by keeping unused items out of landfills!
