About Habitat For Humanity Victoria ReStore - Victoria
Habitat For Humanity Victoria ReStore is a charity retail outlet that offers a variety of new and gently used items, including furniture, appliances, building supplies, and home goods, at approximately 50% off regular retail prices. The store is supported by local homeowners, contractors, retailers, and manufacturers who donate their unwanted items. The ReStore aims to provide quality goods at affordable prices while promoting sustainability by reusing items that would otherwise end up in a landfill. Funds raised support Habitat for Humanity Victoria, helping to build strength, stability, and independence through affordable homeownership. Customers appreciate the helpful and kind staff, along with a frequently rotating selection of items, making each visit a unique experience. Many shoppers have found treasures at the ReStore, with some furnishing their homes primarily with items from the store. However, some reviews express concerns about the new location on Van Allman. While it offers more space, the parking situation has been described as difficult and inconvenient, with blind corners and full lots causing frustration. Additionally, there are complaints about the pricing of items being higher than at the previous Cloverdale location, leading some customers to feel that certain items are overpriced. Overall, while many customers remain loyal supporters and donors to the cause, there are mixed feelings about the new location and pricing strategy.
Music is way too loud and annoying. Way too much not moving products a lazy boy chair for $325 😂 reminder: you don’t make money if the product doesn’t move. In my opinion seeing lots of overpriced things like this just turns me off wanting to go and I know I’m not the only one. The Orono store is much much better. The Vanalman store needs a new GM that has a clue. Hope it returns to its former glory.
Edit: Raising my from 1/5 to 3/5 because the last time I was in there was a notable reversal in the pricing. Found myself thinking we were back to the good old days of the restore. I wasn’t the only one thinking this as the store was...read full review
Two movers showed up on time, they were very polite, efficient and careful not to do any damage to my home or the object I was donating. Thank you so much and I hope the piece finds a good home.
Staff in the store and delivering to my home were very helpful, professional and friendly. I found several great pieces of furniture that I have been looking for and the prices were reasonable for the quality. Highly recommended.
