In today’s economy, finding affordable home improvement materials and furnishings can be challenging. That’s where Habitat for Humanity ReStores come in, offering an incredible selection of discount home goods while making a lasting impact on the community and the environment. If you haven’t visited a Habitat ReStore recently (or ever), now is the perfect time to discover what makes them the best-kept secret for homeowners, DIYers, upcyclers, and bargain hunters alike.
A Hidden Gem for Affordable Home Improvement
Habitat ReStores are nonprofit discount home improvement stores and donation centers that sell new and gently used furniture, appliances, building materials, home décor, and more —all at significantly reduced prices.
According to Habitat for Humanity’s Chief Retail Officer, Peter Agnos, “Whether you’re looking for a unique statement piece, quality cabinets for a remodel, or a gently used washer and dryer, ReStores offer an ever-changing inventory of high-quality items at a fraction of retail cost. You never pay sales tax, plus, every purchase goes toward supporting Habitat for Humanity’s mission to build and repair homes for families in need.”
Sustainability That Makes a Difference
Shopping at and donating to Habitat ReStores isn’t just beneficial for your wallet—it’s great for the planet. Each year, Habitat ReStores help divert thousands of tons of usable materials from landfills, giving a second life to furniture, appliances, and building supplies that might otherwise go to waste. By supporting Habitat ReStores, you’re actively contributing to a more sustainable future, reducing waste, and supporting a circular economy where items are repurposed instead of discarded.
More Than a Purchase—A Purpose
Unlike other thrift options, every dollar spent at a Habitat ReStore fuels a mission far greater than retail. Proceeds directly support local Habitat for Humanity programs, helping families in Arizona achieve the dream of affordable homeownership. When you donate your unwanted furniture or home improvement materials, you’re not just clearing out space—you’re helping to build homes and hope for your neighbors in need.
