Came here and the donation is drive through. There was a long line up for cars. It’s hard to line up and easily block the driveway if there are many cars. I waited 40min. But still appreciate everyone’s kindness and the staffs are hardworking and friendly. Do plan more time at its business hours if you head for a donation.
This goodwill is so clean, well organized and easy to navigate. The employees are cheerful and super helpful. The items for sale are quality, good brand names and in good shape. The pricing is high for a store whose goods are donations. I know they do good things for people/workers but theyre still donations.
Found an original watercolour of my favourite place in the world. Looking for treasures I come here never disappointed👍
It the best goodwill I have been to. It is neat and clean. I has good items to choose from and great variety too. Good parking and good staff who are very helpful
Specifically about the donation line as I had no time to check out the store. Come early or go to another store to donate as this store has a long (lllllloooooonnnnnggg) wait. If you do wait make sure to be on the side of the street to make a right turn into donation line. So many cars turning left waiting in a line and getting honked when the tail end of their vehicle is blocking traffic. No one wants to be that person who blocks an intersection or be stuck waiting behind that person to move. Cue Ludacris music!
Huge facility, great variety and the best prices Ive ever seen at a Goodwill. When I pulled into the parking lot, it looked like a busy grocery store. People coming and going like they were shopping for food. The only downside is that it is a very popular store.
Could have been better if they have both donation lines open for longer duration. Had to wait more than 30minutes to drop off the donation.
I’ve only dropped off at this location. It’s ok. I’ve had 20-30 minute waits in the drop-off line. One employee was very helpful in unloading and another just stood there with the rolling bin. When there is a line of people it seems like they could be more proactive.My latest visit was at 10:00a on Friday (they open at 10a). There were already several cars ahead of me. I waited in line for about 20 minutes, unloaded in about 3 minutes and was on my way.I have driven up to the line and decided not to wait. There was a line down the street that day. Come prepared to wait to drop off. The parking lot of the store is always busy, so it is popular.
Like they say go to the goodwill in a nice neighborhood for the best stuff!
I really like this goodwill! I’ve been here two times, and both times the ladies working the dressing rooms have been really nice, and I’ve found so many of the plushies I’ve been looking for!
Big line that snakes out to the road so plan ahead. Can take up to half an hour to donate.Otherwise pretty great!
Very big thrift store with lots of clothes, furniture, books, electronics, and more. Front end service can be a little iffy, but usually is pretty good. Prices are alright, not the cheapest but still cheaper than retail by a ton.
The prices here are beyond disgusting. This is by far the most expensive Goodwill that I have ever been in. $135+ for a no name 32 tv! $600!!! for a Treadmill!! $50+ for some cheap home-theater-in-a-box speakers.I could go on.Just dont fool your self. These are Not good prices.
A great store with a friendly staff. Always can find good value. One drawback, parking can be a bit of a pain
Please take donations to Jubilee or Discovery Store or Children’s Hospital Thrift store ALL are within 1 to 3 blocks of this Goodwill ! Reasons why : There’s Always a line to donate! Wait time half hour ++to donate plus line is down the city street. This brings so much stuff daily to the store that now has $15 to $40 price tags now due to people buying then re-selling on eBay. Goodwill wants maximum profit so it has raised prices across the board. Saw a air purifier priced at $249.00 come on !!!!! Leggings USED for $19.99 !WOW! go to Ross & get NEW leggings for $8 to $12
I am a huge fan of the Goodwill stores throughout the Seattle area. It doesnt matter what Goodwill location you go to, youll always find hidden treasures throughout the store. You can everything from: furniture, bathroom decor, kitchen decor, bedroom decor, outdoor decor, tools, power tools, electronics, kitchen electronics, men & womens clothing & shoes, children and baby clothing & shoes, accessories for men and women, books, board games, kitchen wear and much much more. At the same time theres a lot of used goods but if you didnt know theres a lot of new or newer items to choose from. When you get some time check out your local Goodwill store.
Its a decent good will. Donation drop-off at end at 5. A wide collection of things inside. Clothes, electronics, furniture and more. Make sure to take a good look at what items can and cant be donated. Lots of things end up just going to the dump because theyre simply not suitable for going into the system, so put in a little effort. All that time and effort for getting rid of junk ends up being picked up by goodwill.
From time to time I come in to check things out. Over the years their toy section has really gone down hill. You will not find legos in store, they sell them thru ebay. Dont see many misc. bags of toys these days, could be because people leave their kids to play in the isle as they shop. There parking lot (like so many these days is littered). At their old location I used to see a nice super friendly gentleman who was sweeping up the trash left by careless patrons. Would be awesome if they fixed the large pothole in their parking lot. Watch out in isle 3. As others have mentioned their prices are really high, this is a thriftstore not an antique store.
This place is really great for accepting donations. Sometimes the line looks long but it goes pretty fast.I usually take all my donations here and the people are always very helpful and kind
They do have new stuff and they are nice ppl, but the person who do the price on their stuff he need to think about it and change the way he price the stuff, because his prices not just high but even this is the only goodwill not in just the area but in all the states that have priced son of his stuff like that ... like the games he price it for 10 bucks?!!! Even they worth more, but everyone in the states know that games or DVD no more than 5.99 some toys that not worth more than 60 cents they price it for $1.50 some electronic things are very pricey... you guys need to change tgat or you will keep the stuff in your shelves and your storage and you will not gave space for the new donations stuff.
Pros: Quality clothes at steal prices. Cons: Disorganized and very busy.Extra pro for families with kids- food and drink at check out for long shopping... start with buying little ones snacks and drinks. It will seriously make your experience way better.
The donation drop off is a complete lottery. You can go in the middle of business hours and it will be closed off. Long line on the weekend but thats to be expected. Never a guarantee when they will be open.
Parking lot is a bit cramped, but this goodwill is amazing, they have lots of high quality clothes and purses especially, and nice housewares too! Not a lot for the extra large sizes though, like me unfortunately I never find any clothes for me here but when Im looking for a purse, or a new board game, or a good comforter, this is the place to go. Lots of unique high end type stuff and the prices are better than my local goodwill in Everett. The prices here for designer type jeans are like youd expect from a thrift store, unlike my goodwill in Everett where the prices are like as if youre shopping brand new! Trick is to get in and out of there before the 3pm traffic starts getting heavy!
Thank you so much for everything you do
So far the best goodwill In Washington and Ive been to alot of them,but this one is clean, labeled, more nicer things, its just far from Seattle
Prices on items are way too high. I was looking for just a sweatshirt. I forgot my jacket from AZ. Most all your prices for a sweater, sweatshirt or light jacket were $24 to $30. I need to base my taxes for items donated off your prices $$$ for me. Note: I found a brand new sweatshirt down the road never worn for $14.
The staff was rude and not helpful. We had gone to donate the items in Uber. We got dropped off right outside the donation counter and asked the staff if we could drop the items at any spot they ask us to.The staff impolitely replied that they dont do walk-ins and that we would need a car to get into the line. They also said its illegal to drop things in other peoples parking lot, although we told them we would not be dropping the items off if we are not allowed to.Buy a car before donating to Goodwill.
Got some rare things here. Really very happy
Love shopping there. I always find things there to buy
Process is simple and efficient. There is only one path to get in the donation line, which I wasnt expecting. But once you know about this, its something to keep in mind when choosing a route to the location. Also, allow time for the line, prepare to be patient, and arrive at least 20-60 minutes before closing.
The line for dropping off was just under an hour long. I called before I went there to make sure they would take the couch and loveseat set I had loaded out in my truck, and the lady said as long as they were in great condition, they would accept them. I waiting 50+ minutes in the donations line that started outside the entrance (at 152nd?), and once I got to the head of the line and got out to start releasing the ratchet straps on the load(the whole time the kid was standing there watching me, presumably waiting for me to get unstrapped so he could put it on the cart he’d brought over), when some guy appeared from inside the building saying they won’t accept big furniture. Even after I told him I was given the go ahead on the phone and mentioned his fellow employee was about to accept them if he hadnt shown up, he still kept saying “we no accept. We no accept”.So I pulled aside to let the people behind me continue while I strapped the load back down and headed to the transfer station.It’s not anyone’s fault, really. I mean, goodwill is a massive operation. I can’t imagine keeping everything straight in a corporation that takes unregulated, unproven and uninspected personal household goods and clothing and somehow gets it out to the shelves with a Price tag and sold to the public without there being SOME lack of communication or misinterpretation of the rules or the adjustments in policy they must have to make from week to week... and now with COVID!? Forget about it! (I changed my review from a 4 to a 5.. they are doing a great job!
Dropoff entrance is only from the right side of the parking lot, not clearly marked.
Goodwill Bellevue/Redmond:Always an enjoyable experience. The selection is constantly changing but the service is always great. Ariel is such a pleasant and helpful staff member she deserves special mention.
Went there to donate. Make sure to go early to avoid long lines. Staff was nice and helpful when unloading.
The guys at the back, Dave and Lauren were always extremely helpful. That place has gotten much better with your new manager she has done such a great job almost as good as Shelley.
Evan was so helpful and kind. gave me the best customer service i have ever received in a store!
Im please and thankful for the cleanliness and the organization of this store. I always find great treasures that I can soon make my own. I will be back!!
Well organized and will stocked. Good selection of electronics and jewelry.
Jamilah is always unfriendly and unprofessional. But if you are white, shell bend over backwards for you, and give you whatever you want. Her white supervisors have to always be correcting her for her cashiering errors and infractions. She only treats her people and white customers well.Sucks to not be a part of either ethnic/religious group, be in need low-cost used goods, and want to be good to the environment at the same time. Excuse me for trying to live and be human.Treat everyone as you want to be treated irrespective of their race. Its just a job, and were just passing through in this life.
Idropped off some stuff at goodwill. Very well organized and easy.
Great place, well managed given current covid situation.
Courteous staff. Big store will a lot of stuff
Easy drop off location open till 7pm for donations.
I came to drop off the donations - the line was huuuge! All the way down to the road! Aperently, the accept donations Sat-Sun only. Good to know :). The line was moving very quickly, the staff is friendly and efficient.
Staff and other donors are slow, so expect a 30+ minute wait when you go.
Workers arent too friendly However they ha have an excellent inventory
Its obvious there is an effort to keep the racks of clothing organized and the floors are clean the staff are friendly joking with each other its a very comfortable place to shop
Over pricedIf u aintWEALTHYU CANT SHOP HERE!!ALSO EMPLOYEES R RUDE AND DISRESPECTFUL IF U DONT MATCH THE WEALTHY LIFESTYLE OR AT LEAST ABLE TO LOOK THE PART ENOUGH TO BLEND IN.IM DONE SHOPPING WITH GOODWILL IM TAKING MY KIBBLES AND TINY BITS OF MONEY TO VALUE VILLAGE FROM TODAY FORWARD!!!!!!!!
I was told that I wasnt welcome at the store because I walked my donations through the drive through. Kind of ironic! You can only donate if you are polluting the world. Yet they are trying to recycle. lol
Very slow and inefficient donation line
Lots of really good stuff at this location. A bit pricey FOR A GOODWILL; Ive worked at Goodwills in Maine and Michigan, so Im used to a lower cost of living. This is a great place to go if youre looking to purchase furniture/decorations for your house, clothes to wear, or just crazy things that people have donated. Definitely recommend checking it out if you have the spare time and like 30 bucks to spare. You will find something interesting stopping by this store, I guarantee it
Donations close before the place does, which is super annoying after making a trip all the way here. Person said I can come back tomorrow. No, Ill chuck it in the garbage, because Im not running circles just to donate something. Add a drop off box or something, but dont expect people to go out of their way to give you something, for free, that youre going to turn around and sell.
Excellent drop off
Lots of Womans cloths and shoes but limited little girls section.
Goodwill is goodwill. Way too for-profit for my tastes. Try Value Village instead.
Crowded and though they have a decent selection of at least mens stuff..it was way way over priced. There fashion focus is selling 30 dollar jeans...they are donations. Its sad really.
Well organized collection ( its donations) and very friendly staff.
It brings me joy finding things like a great new cook book or kitchen gadget I dont freaky need but will enjoy using.
Finally able to get some donations delivered!
Great GoodWill location. Found some great finds
Found some amazing things!! Neiman Marcus trench for only $20!!! Got to go between Thursday and Monday, you get discounts!!
Clean, organized, and very friendly helpful staff. Great thrift store!
Call me crazy, but its a little pricey for a thrift shop. A waterlogged jigsaw puzzle missing half its pieces will run you $5.99, but at least the store as a whole is organized well-run.
Great store!!!A lot staff! People who work there very nice!
They were really helpful.
Rude person when we are donating stuff. Came in to donate but met with this staff who was really rude and condescending. Just wanted to donate. Nothing more :(
Always good finds here.
Considering the abundace of people now able to drop off donations.....the line moved quickly for drop offs. Opens for donations at 9am. Depending on donation drop offs it closes as soon as they fill up. Recommendation: Arrive early in the morning.
The donation line is horribly organized. Spent at least 30 min with line not moving, as the guys didn’t have a spare cart.
Prices are outrageous for used items. I can go to other stores and buy a compburble new item for $3-5 more. The Franchisees are getting greedy!
Busy! Great service 😁
This place is excellent! The Entire staff is personable!They are helpful! All of the items are quality items!
Parking is tight but its a clean store with great selection
They have good discounts some times
Big store very clean and organized compared to some other second hand stores
Staff is very friendly and I have found some amazing items for a great price. I got a new professional office job and need to dress a certain way. Coming here I was able to afford an entire new wardrobe for under $200 including shoes, bags and jewelry! 🥳
Big store, moody workers though :/
Cathy is my favorite employee. I love her enthusiasm, attention to detail and warm smile. Today she was my cashier and was totally on top of each item, including when price tags were missing and when I was buying things with the discount colored tag. The selection of items is impressive, the curation makes shopping easy and the store is always clean. And, I love donating to Goodwill because they are making a difference in the lives of so many. And as a nonprofit I know that my donations are going toward their mission, not landing in the bank account of a local business owner.
Was here 1st time since reopening.. it is low on furniture & some other things.. but great to be able to go back..
This goodwill has the best stuff
Awesome place!
OUTSIDE SAFETY CAUTION! Guy outside wearing green coat harassing people in the parking lot of the store
Great Store
Was able to drop off some long awaited clothes, unfortunately they arent accepting furniture items, my poor garage! Otherwise good visit.
Great drop off location if you arent giving them junk, theyll take anything not broken.Prices on stuff is pretty fair. Lots of everything. They just renovated everything and its all nice and neat and new!Parking can be a disaster when its busy (often)
Good selection nice layout
Great but the flow of traffic is incredibly difficult with the one way lanes and crowded drop off
Its clean and the products I looked at Microwave and bathroom stand were in very good condition and the price was right in my budget.
I really like Goodwill. Say what you will, everyone seems to have an opinion, I still go and donate there. Redmonds new location is nice and easier to get in to, but there times when parking is a premium. Dont be surprised if you go during a prime time and you have to wait for parking. There is no overflow and no one lets you walk-off their parking lots anymore. Well organized and fun treasure are always found.
Ooh la la! Love this new store and location. Nearly double the size of the previous location and beautiful items to fill it all up. It opened today and I was only able to get through about half of it and found tons of items that will be of use to me. Clean, beautifully sorted, with a good layout, lots of room. Shelly has done a great job managing this store and the move.
