One of my favorite stores! They have such a wide selection of goods and it’s always changing.The furniture selection is always fun the browse and since we are currently remodeling our home it’s nice to look through the bathroom vanities, sinks, and hardware. They have an enormous area filled with tiles and and rugs, plus the lighting area is lovely to browse.We are also updating our yard and Ive been surprised with their array of garden decor, plants, and pavers.I will always come here first when starting a new project or looking for ideas. This store is fantastic!

This place always has some great stuff floating around. Kind of hit and miss on stock but that comes with the territory in salvage, vintage and artsy stores like this. Pretty much always fun to look around in. Generally I think the prices are fairly reasonable for the most part. Not a lot if steals, but usually seem like decent value for interesting stuff.

Looking for designer pieces you can only find at the Expo Mart? You have arrived at the best secret designer shop around. So much to see and at great prices. Make your home unique with what they have to offer.

VERY UNIQUE items that Ive never seen elsewhere! I live over an hour away but the trip is definitely worth it if youre after something eye-catching and one-of-a-kind!

In two separate transactions on the same day, I paid about the same price of a full pallet of flagstone for nearly half of it (roughly 4,000lbs at $.10 versus the 2,261 lbs. I received at $.18)Unfortunately, I was never told there was a discount on a full pallet versus a partial pallet.When I brought my receipts in to plead my case to the manager and get the remainder of the stone I’m due, or at least a discount on the additional load, she denied my request.SE salvage is a great store and I’ll still shop there, but this has definitely disappointed me.

It was ok ...I thought it was pretty pricey and stuff wasnt top grade. We werent acknowledged and they werent all busy . And thats just a pet peeve of mine that effects the score but only takes a sec to say Hi. So when I start building my house I wont hurry there anytime soon.

This place is so cool I try and go every couple weeks you can always find something new every time. They carry all different types of stuff from home made to eclectic to you name it they have it.

Items from all over the world including some unique items at generally good prices. Also flooring, rugs and doors, etc. Great browsing place to find that special accent piece or roomful of furniture.

It is not the Southeastern Salvage of years past. I guess it is great if you like stuff made in India of junk. It is not salvage anymore. They still have some nice doors.

They were out of rocking chairs when I went there but I found some cool welcome mats.

Big warehouse with plenty to choose from. The staff is super pleasant and easy to deal with. There are plenty of them around to help you. If the furniture has any issues with it they will discount it for you no problems at all. They even help you load it in your vehicle. Prices are very reasonable!

Loads of items for every style and design taste. Fun to window shop and treasure hunt. Also, whomever did the woodwork in the restroom deserves a pat on the back. Nicely done.

Me
Review №22

Havent been there in years so it not the same at all. Prices way too high for regular folks. Very interesting and unique furniture but I have more common sense than money, so...Actually for the basic things such as carpets and flooring and decorative items, At Home or Ollies would be sufficient. I was very disappointed.

An
Review №23

Every time I go here I am disappointed. Over priced!! If you are looking for the barn or country look, you might find something. Probably good for floors and rugs.

Review №24

Great variety of stuff from cheap open box, damaged, missing to brand new expensive furniture and rugs

Review №25

Meh. They have some cool stuff. But most of it was overpriced in my opinion. They do sell precut glass table tops at an affordable price though. So theres that!

You have a nice store but its really really hot inside the store and I wish that for the handicap people I wish that there was something that they could have some go buggies ride around in and something for the elderly to ride in if none of them could walk to well

A lot to choose from and lovely selections. They just expanded their building where now you can choose from tile to LVP flooring. Also their main room from the start has a lot of options like hardwood flooring or vinyl. Very friendly, professional, and patient staff here overall. I definitely will be coming back.

You should really stop by ever so often. I got a $1,300 rug for $99 because it had a bad place on the back. There is great deals to be found if you stop by regularly. Great and friendly staff

I just love shopping here. They have so many different items to see. I have purchased a lot of things at my visits to Southeastern Salvage. I love elephants so, I purchased 2 very large and heavy vases for my foyer along with two small elephants. I have also purchased two wooden stools. They are strong enough to use as a chair or stand on. But, I use those to set my plants on they are great. On one of my wooden stools I purchased a very large and heavy Crystal to sit on top of it. Just goegeous.

Review №43

I REALLY dont want to write this review, because I am afraid of what might happen. This place is probably THE most interesting building store I have seen. I really dont want anyone else to know about it and come in and buy up all the really cool stuff.That being said, Prices are right on. Material seems pretty sturdy. LOTS of very unique items and furniture that I have never seen anywhere else. If you wanna make a man cave- come HERE first. If you want a she-shed, you can come too.... but, bring a trailer, because you will find yourself needing one. I WILL be back. VERY cool place.

This was a great store as I didnt see anyone wearing a mask. Masks always scare me because they are for sick people to wear as a curticy to the people around them to try and keep them from getting sick.

On Saturday, March 6th me and my two daughters visited the store looking for two mirrors to go over a bathroom double vanity. We found two that my daughter liked. My other daughter wanted to do some more shopping so I walked up to the cashier and was going to ask if I could leave the two mirrors near the cashier stand rather than carry them around the store while shopping. Before I was able to finish my question I was RUDELY interrupted with “no, you can’t.” She didn’t even let me finish my question. I didn’t ask the cashiers name but she was small and had extremely purple hair. I was in the store around 2:00 on Saturday. Maybe that will help you determine who she was. She doesn’t need to be around the public if she is going to have that type of attitude. Maybe she was having a bad day...but still...no excuse for rudeness. Put her in an area where she doesn’t have to deal with the public.

The place to get a DEAL. If you see it...buy it right then because it will be gone. If you dont see it, then come back every few days until you do. New arrives constantly. Very fast turn over here.

Review №77

As far as the store goes, I rate it 5 stars. The problem is the staff, they all get 1 star. We are in the middle of a global pandemic and Hamilton Co is extremely high risk currently with 200+ new cases every day and rising. Why in the world does every employee in there wear a mask with their nose hanging out and then removed it to talk or for no clear reason at all?! I guess I wont go back until things calm down, no sense in hanging around careless, selfish people who cant even put a simple piece of cloth over their face properly.

They got odds n ends like pizza stones, doors, big pots, funky baskets, scarves, flooring, umbrellas hiding in wine bottles, soap, ceiling lights, and kitchen sinks. So yeah, lots of stuff.

Review №84

Right now they dont have much in the store.that is new. The Chattanooga Southern is the best store of all the Southeastern stores.but right now they are like all.the others. Nothing new or unique right now.

Ch
Review №85

While ai love Southeastern Salvage, I will stay at the one in Knoxville. While the Chattanooga store is larger with more variety, the staff is not helpf and quite frankly rude. When I asked to see a display light fixture turned on, the staff only td me that it was the last one and did not have a box. Even when I asked again to see it lightest, she seemed not in the least interested. Her loss as I would have bought the fixture. Also, the front check out refused to take a Visa gift card and said, they do not accept those. Strange as it is considered cash everywhere else.

A wide assortment of things. We were looking for tile, and while they had a lot, just not what we were looking for. And they had one guy who worked there, but we couldnt ever get his attention for help.

Review №91

The employees were so rude! I have never been there before and I will never be back. They were actually screaming at people from across the room as they walked in the door. I know there is a mask policy and we follow it. Screaming at people who do not is rude and crass.Have someone at the door asking people if they need a mask. As I said before we will never be back.
