A huge selection of old and newer home items. We just got an odd sized interior door that was exactly what we needed for 5 dollars! Love this place!
I could spend hours at this place. If you are a DIYr, then you must check it out. Its surprisingly organized and busy. I was among a dozen or so other shoppers who showed up a half hour before opening time jockeying for a position. They open at 11:00, not 10:00 like many think.Here is the problem with this place, as I saw it. The guys that work there see this stuff as garbage, where I see it as treasure. I was there to pick up a walk in shower stall, of which they had 10 of. Each one had a bit of damage, usually just on the nailing flange. I meticulously checked one with the correct plumbing orientation to be sure there were no cracks within the shower stall itself. With the employee waiting, obviously annoyed, for the ten minutes it took me to make my selection because they were stored upstairs in a limited access area. Once I made my selection, I was instructed to go down and pay for it. As I was descending the stairs I could hear the guy very roughly slamming the stalls around, as he was alone to move it out. They fork lifted it down, put it on my truck and I strapped it down. But when I got it home I saw there was a dime sized crack right in the floor corner, probably happened while the guy was slamming it around. It was brand new but dusty and the crack was right in the clean mark my finger made as I was running it along to check for cracks, so I know it wasnt there when I checked.Its very disappointing but Im not driving an hour back to argue with them about it. Im hoping I can repair it. I only paid $150 for it. They retail for around $800. A real treasure. Too bad it was treated like garbage.
Wont be going back. We use to go about 2 times a week but after an employee was extremely rude and discriminated against my boyfriend for his attire due to his families beliefs we will not be returning. Not to mention he made a scene in front of numerous customers. We have emailed and gotten no response from a manager. Very disgusting behavior.
Friendly and knowledgeable workers and always the best prices
Its always a fun adventure to visit the Re Store.They dont always have what Im looking for, but they always have a lot of stuff, and are constantly adding new product.The staff is friendly and helpful.Items are categorized very well.Parking on the store lot is limited, but there is street parking near.
The RE Store use to be a great place to go find treasures, but over time, those treasures are costing more, so much so, that some times its better to buy it new.What I dont understand more than anything is why do they still insist on full on mask usage. Maybe they didnt get the message, but there state has relaxed the requirement for mask.Everyone around them is requesting a mask for those who havent been vaccinated, and I think we should all be able to agree on this, but getting vaccinated and then having to continue using a mask is plain and simple stupid and over reach and narsatidtic.Maybe we need to stop supporting those businesses that cant treat is as adults. I know Im no longer going to support them.
I like looking around and always end up buying some thing that I can use around the house. I bought a jar of small nails for a quarter 3 or 4 dollars somewhere else . I love it Thank you Are Store
Lots of really good used materials and ideas for using them. Senior discount available too. Donate something and get a credit for future purchases
I got some great furniture from them..
Got an education today on restore and habitat store are VERY different in Bellingham. I dont need all your drama (at habitat store) I just want to buy cool used building stuff at cheap prices. And restore had a far better selection
A good place to give any used item another life rather than seeing it at the land fill. Lets face it, many items do not have the be new to be useful. If you need a small piece of sheetrock, are you really going to buy a 4x8 sheet and dump the rest? You will still have to paint it anyways. If your socket collection is missing the ⅜ size are you buying a new set? The low price is another compelling reason to consider this place. Excellent alternative to the big box stores.
Love the Restore always an experience
Love there prices they cary all kinds of odds and ends snatched up some brand new paint for a project in working on $2
Great place to look for recycled House hold building materials.... Could be cleaner maybe wipe down before selling.... Id recommend wearing gloves.
Always fun to see what they have.
Always have everything youre looking for in the even have stuff you dont know youre looking for always a great place to get a good bargain
Usable building materials at a good price, reuse when I can.
Prices are up and the new maze layout is so bad Im sure it makes more people catch covid than just doing things normally.
Always so awesome to come here and find what I need and know Im not contributing to the waste stream more than I have to!
Lots of things here doors,furniture, sinks,plumbing just about everything and fair prices.this store keeps the things out of landfills!
A great place to find one of a kind items when doing home repair
Love this place. Got so many different things.
Hunters paradise! Love the cool finds for your home or garden. Friendly staff will help you carry everything.
Great location to find any hardware needs, furniture, and construction supplies. For a great price
Great experience here! I went in to get a pair of safety goggles for my boyfriend. originally they were priced at $3 but because of their 20% off sale they were only going to be $0.43. since it would have cost me $0.50 to use my card and thats all I had on me the wonderful lady behind the counter just let me take them and it totally saved my day!!!!Recycling items like this is such a wonderful thing!
Awesome People, Awesome Prices. Awesome Store! If you are looking for a piece of trim or old lamps that is not made any more You can find odd items for old houses at a Great Price!
The ReStore is one of my absolute favorite places! You will find all sorts of supplies and tools here. I stop by about once a week to see new stuff they have gotten in.
Prices are great for the hardest to find things
A great place to find those unusual, and the typical items for any project or need.Better yet it is open every day, while the habitat stores are closed Sunday and Monday.As with other stores of this type, you will need to dig around a bit, but if you find what you go for, it (and prices) is worth a visit.
We have been shopping (and donating) at RE Store for several years, and over those years have bought a great number things, especially for our shop. Yes, some of their items are priced quite high, but the majority we found to be well priced - so we buy. And if the item has been there for months, we can sometimes negotiate a lower price that works for everyone involved.Regarding employees, we have found 99% of them to be very helpful, whether buying or donating. I go in almost every week, and almost without fail, help is available when I ask, sometimes beyond the call of duty! My wife and I agree that they are equal to, or even better than, much of the private sector business employees that we typically encounter.
It can be a little jumbled and hard to navigate at first. Some might find it even overwhelming but once you get the basic layout its a fun place to shop and save some money! You never know what treasure you will find just around the next corner! The staff all seem happy and are always friendly and very helpful.
I love this store!! Huge supply of anything you could ever need to fix your house or to do any junk art project!! Pricing is reasonable, and staff is friendly and knowledgeable.
I love all re stores but this one is fun to go to. Im not a local so I dont usually buy too much at this location. However this one always have really old items. They keep a bunch of vintage packaging on the top shelf across from the cashier. They are really neat to look at. This last time I went they had a working Edison turntable with a horn.
When youre doing a renovation on the inexpensive but high-quality side, its really hard to find supplies. The restore actually goes out and collects things from peoples homes as they do remodels. Which means you can get real wood instead of particle board and super cool style instead of generic.
Very well set up for the distancing rule!
This place is so great! They have everything from flooring materials to marble counter tops, light fixtures, doors, and cabinets...you name it. I went there looking for window shades. I found the perfect size for 2 bedrooms. One of the volunteers helped me find the right hardware to install them. The price was a fraction of what they would have cost new. There is also free parking in the back of the building.
This place is definitely five stars worthy they always have stuff for projects. My favorite project in particular was when I was a kid and this place was where we got all the wood for my treehouse. Id definitely recommend coming here for a good price and good constructial supplies.
Their customer service has improved and you can get what you need there if you are patient and willing to come back a few times. Im glad they stay open until 6pm for those of us who work 8 to 5.
Great staff. Great prices. They are Always my first stop, often my only stop for any project.
Lots of old good things . Good for crateing and recycling wood. Theres just so much more. I would say take a walk around that store and enjoy it
You never know what you’ll find at the Restore.it is extremely popular with locals so it can be difficult to find great things there, but it does happen. The pricing can be hit or miss. I’ve found bargains and overpriced items on the same visit. If you donate to them you can get a tax deductible donation or you can decide to get a percentage of your donation back as credit (like consignment). I think they do good work saving usable items from the landfill, and are worth a visit.
Glad they are getting product in but when you cant get to things.. Ie sinks because of all the sinks on the ground around the others.. You cant see price on doors because of all the doors leaning on display for doors.Just wanted to add that we love the Restore! We have normally been able to find everything we are looking for. This past trip really threw us for a loop as we have never had that hard of a time.
Always a fun place to visit. They constantly get new items and Im a fan of recycling. Lots of good stuff ready for your project ideas.
I actually give this place (4) stars as far as the merchandise n their prices but I only put (2) stars because I was made to feel invisible in terms of a paying customer but was being watched like I was going to steal...but I still recommend this place...its just how I was made to feel... because they were super nice n helpful to all who werent me...just saying
Building anything or need ideas, go here before big box stores and save some money.
Great service. good deals. good prices.this was 2 year ago but now is TERRIBLY HORABLE customer service and deceiving price tags, price changed at register 8 time more then the price tag, manager was just a waste of time.
Do you like awesome junk organized on shelves and ocasionally in piles? Re store is for you! Honestly I just come here to walk around and look at stuff sometimes, its that cool.
I want to have a cot there so I can always keep up with the great stuff coming in the door. Every time I go there I find something that I can use for my projects and art.
Love the Restore! It has all the cool stuff for building and remodeling. Im there at least once a week.
Vast amounts of older building materials that are priced a too high. If youre looking to find something older to fit into an old house, this is a good place. Service is hit and miss; depends on the employee.
Just got some scrap wood enough to make several little shelving units around my apartment. I hope they did the math right, because it was that cheap! (some of it was osb though) The shop attendant was friendly and called for help instead of making me wait a while. Would recommend the place.
Great place to shop for home renovation projects . Youll find a lot of reusable material at a good price
Helpful, friendly staff. Large selection of fixtures and building suppliesThe oldest toilets they take are from 2000. A year indicator should be stamped on the inside of the tank or lid.
Just dropped off a whole cabinet set and sink, Love the store, always find something for a DIY project.
With some creativity you can have some wonderful home projects done at a very reasonable cost.
One of Bellinghams finest spots to browse for ideas and recycled building supplies. The staff is always helpful and prices always fair.
Great place but getting very cluttered. Need to have a big sale. Free up some space.
Michael is the 1 of the ONLY reason I give this many stars. LOTS of items in this store, but not everything marked accurately- learned AFTER bringing bulky items home!.. Kitties made it better, while waiting at cash register.😺
I love all the random things from tools, to scrap wood, to cupboards, and more! Reusing things is a great way to protect our environment and the RE Store is one of the best places for reusing.
Im fixing up an old house and this is my go to place for any odd pieces.... scraps of cement board, tile galore, paint, even got my kitchen sink there. Everyone is friendly and helpful and they even help me load my truck. Get the monthly punch card for 10% off
Love this place. You never know what you will find!
I was on the road looking for 5 panel raised panel doors for a client. Re-use was 1 hour and 30 min away. I called to find out if they had a decent selection of 5 panel doors since I would have been adding 3 hours to my already long day and without a decent chance I wouldnt have waisted my time. The person who answered the phone told me everyone who worked there was too busy to check and I should just come by a check. I explained that all I needed was to know if they had a few in stock which he said they tend to. So I drove the extra distance only to discover they had only one in stock. The message on the answering service even has a inventory question entry but obviously no effort to,follow through for their customers. Thanks for nothing reuse.
Great staff, great prices and always a little something different every time you come. You can find just about anything you need to fix stuff around your house
I LOVE the ReStore. :) provides a service, has awesome staff, and excellent prices on all kinds of stuff!
The restore is great. Peopleb are really helpful, and there is a lot of great stuff to check out.
Always a great place to stop for used building materials. The staff is always helpful and able to assist with large purchases.
Great staff, great prices, great inventory of many things. I recommend for any DIYer to go and check it out.
I just got everything to tile our shower floor....all for 18 dollars.....The Re Store has everything for incredibly moderate prices.
Ive been a customer for quite some years. This is my chance to tell you how much we enjoy coming to your place. We have always been treated with respect and I like to thank Tim who has helped me many times and Darryl and also this time Kerra for her help. I will be returning to pick up more items this week. I just didnt have enough room to fit everything in my SUV. Thank-you, Lee Patton-Van Cleeve and family.
An excellent place to find unique and reasonably priced items for the home.
Really appreciate having a community recycled building material store. Not everything I want when I want it, but patience provides gems.
Great assortment of lots of things and the staff is helpful and friendly. Prices are great!
Absolutly a pleasure to work with they came in and were finished within two hours taking apart my kitchen without damaging the walls or the backsplash totally would have them do work for me again!!!
Im so grateful for this store, Re store has helped me save so much money on recent projects
Great repurposed things to buy... check it out!
Always love shopping the restore, found way too much today
Great finds live here. Especially if youre a little bit handy. We built most of our retail store (Merch Bot) with lockers and fixtures found at the ReStore.
It is a good place to find your odds and ends that you need
The Restore is my first stop when I need something for our home, yard, or business. The selection is always changing and the staff is always outstanding!
Way more inventory than we expected, from fixtures to fasteners, cabinets, random sized glass, chairs and chain - let your imagination run wild!
Over priced donated items. Re-dateing of items to avoid discounting prices. I find it hard to believe that every item in there came in on the exact same day. Not what it used to be. Now its a huge rip off. Very disappointed in what it has become.
I get lost in there because my mind finds an endless supply house projects to do. And its affordable.
Great place for repurposed projects.
We love cruising through The ReStore! You never know what treasures youll find!
Great place for the crafty do it yourselfer whos looking for a deal. Everything for your home project from recycled, upcycled and repurposed items and goods.
Friendly, helpful staff. Good deals.
DONT BUY THE METRO PAINT. It came not sealed and spilled all over our car (we have fabric seats). The salws associate employees were very rude about it. That damage is hundreds of dollars, probably mpre since I doubt you can get paint out of fabric and it wull have to be replaced.The only reason for three stars is because the manager seemingly offered to pay for the damage. Although, we wil find out if that actually happens.
Never know what youll find, and thats the fun!
Lots of usable building materials at affordable prices
Awsome place for handyman and artists alike.
Like finding treasures at good prices.
Great place to find matches to older hardware
Always fun to look at all the recycled building materials, you never know what you are going to find. Friendly staff.
Fantastic place to find anything for a building project.
Love the restore we built a clubhouse.
Great product lline, always a find.
Awesome place and great selections.
