Great place to find interesting things. Me and my dad found an old Panasonic boom box from the 1980s turns out it’s worth over $400s now. Highly recommended you to go to here if your looking for something rare because we found even more things since then. Not to mention the staff is very friendly and the prices are nice too. The old boom box was like $5 AND it works very well and so are the other things we found there.

Its amazing that their prices are so high when they claim to employ the disabled as a charitable cause but place all items of value on ebay skipping the employment altogether. I donate all my Broken electronics and trash to goodwill cause of this greed.

Huge selection of everything at great price. Picked up several gently used designers brand mens clothes 10 pieces for under 25.00 One polo shirt alone would be 50 dollars new

So, you dont realize you are taking out the honest managers and keeping the ones that are empowering the people that are stealing? Really bad climate for shoppers looking for an honest deal.

HEY Palmetto Goodwill NEW Management-- You need to teach that swinging cashier in the Outlet Store the difference between a pile of BOOKS and a pair of sweatpants. Can you say overring. And who are these folks who now appear to be living in the front of the store? Creepy!

There was alot of people and quite busy during our visit but the manager working the front checkout did an excellent job holding it down, did a professional job with a nice friendly attitude... something not seen often at alot of places. She deserves more help and a pay raise

Im not happy with this location...the people handling the carts were letting certain regulars get 1st dibs on EVERY new cart that came out. There was even someone waiting by the door for guitars that were coming out that he was apparantly informed of beforehand and was able to get them 1st...they pick and choose when to ring the bell. If the regulars are waiting for the new stuff and not around..they ring it...if theyre standing there waiting.. they dont ring it.People were not happy and shaking their heads because its very unfair to not have a chance at the new stuff.

Very helpful and inexpensive.. perfect for my budget

Treasure hunting in this store is always time well spent. Theres not a lot of mens clothing, and that may be my only complaint. I used to score hard to find PC and electronics components from their computer store located on the opposite side of the complex. Needless to say, the prices are more than reasonable.

Not enough shopping carts. Bring your own bags. Plenty of good stuff to get.

Parking lot, flower beds and entrance had trash everywhere. It was aweful. Household and other items were extremely over priced. This was the worst Goodwill that I have ever been to.

This is a decent location.

For a goodwill, they got really good things at a very good price. They also do good business.

Its a typical Goodwill. I was a bit frustrated in the lack of labeling for price. For example, I looked at their books. There was no sign stating specific books were a specific cost. I saw no book with a sticker with a price. I went to the register to ask how they were priced and was told they were all the same price. I asked if that was the case with all sizes. I was told that was correct. So I found a few books and went to pay. The first question out if the cashiers mouth was doi you have any childrens books. I asked why, I thought they were all the same price. She said no. This was THE SAME girl. This was maybe 5 minutes prior to checking out. I felt like she could have just made up whatever price she felt like giving me. I did not appreciate that moment.

Awesome staff. easy to find items. well kept for a place with such a broad variety of donations.

Love shopping here but employees are not are not making guest follow covid rules which is put in place by the governor and goodwill policys

Super pricey compared to other nearby ones, paid $5 for a suitcase at another one but this location wanted $13

Very clean and pleasant atmosphere Great experience😃🍕🍕🖤

Friendly staff and great prices

This particular Goodwill had a electronics store in it, but they closed it down. Bring it back!

I found the prices to be too much during this trip. They are usually more competitive.

I like thrift store shopping and this goodwill has a lot of men clothes for me I didn’t go to the Clarence part but it’s open the cashier was very nice to me

A lot to see. Friendly staff.

EVERYTHING WAS SO OVER PRICED. AND DIRTY. I CANT BELIEVE SOMETHING THATS DONATED. THERE SALEING FOR THIS PRICE. I BOUGHT A GEORGE FORMAN GRILL WHEN I PLUGGED IT UP TO MAKE SURE IT WORKED THE SMELL OF DIRTY GREASE. MAKES YOU WONDER WHAT BODY PART THEY HAD COOKED ON IT. THIS PLACE WAS NASTY. AND THERE WAS 2 CACHIERS. ONE WAS VERY POLITE. THE OTHER ONE NEEDS A COURSE. IN CUSTOMER SERVICE. IT WILL BE A COLD DAY IN HELL. IF I EVER STEP FOOT BACK IN THIS PLACE.

Sometimes I find good deals and sometimes I strike out. All that means is I have to go often. The staff is friendly and the place is clean.

Main store was ok. The side where they bring the bins out at low, per pound prices, is a bit crazy. The need to grab stuff in a hurry brings out te wildside in some people, lol

Nice selection and organized

Nice inexpensive finds and purchases help others needing jobs, education, and other supports!

We love the clearance part of this Goodwill... great buys!

Good place to do shopping. Every item dont have price tag and you need to ask billing counter for prices.

Great place to shop for deals, excellent staff very reliable & friendly.

Clean and not crowded. Unfortunately, not very organized. There were multiple things marked Small by Goodwill that said size 10, 12, or even 20 by the brand. Also, other goodwill stores that I have been to had the DVDs at the register, this one leaves the DVDs inside the case and you could see peoples fingerprints all over.

Store is not very clean. Dressing rooms closed still.

Great finds, and father and son waiting on Mommie

Very organized, clean, and good prices. The clearance center is lots of fun if youre looking for a deal.

Clean and very safe. All employees wearing masks. Dressing rooms and bathrooms are closed

Okay smells weird.

I went to the by the pound store great prices, clean and useful employees.

Bunch of thieves dont waste your money or time on these terrible people.

Always a treasure hunt. This time we scored

No employees for help 2 of them outside in a car while customers shopped alone only to have one peak to see if customers are at the register shame

Not as much fun, they have closed the computer center, there is limited bins.Hope it all comes back.

Great place

Low stock and the prices are expensive for used products.

You will never be disappointed shopping here! You have to be aware of the weight of items, but 98% of the merchandise offered is wonderful. Everything is priced per pound except couches, chairs, bikes furniture...most heavy items. I purchased two very large bags of merchandize for less than $2.00!! One of the best thrift style stores in the Charleston, SC area!

I shop at 4 Goodwill locations on a weekly basis. I went to the Rivers Ave location and picked out 6 large plates and 6 small plates and a cart full of other products. I received the receipt only toreallize they charge the same price for the small plates as the large plates. I replied thats too much and would like a refund or exchange. The guy at the next cash register asks me to come over only to ppint out All Sales are Final on the bottom of the receipt. Really? Im literally still standing in line. I feel I was duped and this is horrible customer service. Its not about the $6, its the principal. I do NOT want the overpriced used plates. I would gladly pick something else out. I called the Palmetto Goodwill headquarters to speak to someone but noone ever returned my call. I am very disappointed and will NEVER shop at the Rivers Avenue location ever again. Im sticking with the knowledgable staff and friendly staff at Mt Pleasant and JAmes Island.

The Goodwill Computer Store is a great spot to find inexpensive parts & used equipment. I found a replacement laptop power cord for $9, compared to a new one for $89. Donate your old equipment to be recycled, rather than wasting in landfills. Also you give good people work & training.

Basically just cloths.

This is an interesting goodwill. Not only do you have the retail store but you also have the clearance center and the computer center.In the clearance center it is buy it by the pound. Surprisugly you can actually find some decent stuff at the clearance side of the store.

The computer center is vacant . It was our favourite place to go but now is just vacant !

The As is side you can get really good deals if you dont mind digging for them. It is a bit rough. But the normal side the prices are higher for something they got for free.

A great place to quickly donate books, clothes and furniture. You even get a donation slip for tax credit. I like that they have the drive through service and help you get the boxes and items out of your car. Staff is very helpful.

Oh good Lord! This place stinks to high Heaven!On top of that, the prices for household items are ridiculous! I could buy brand new for a lower price. What happened to this place???

It was alright, not a big selection, but nice

Staff inside the regular store are nice, other side is a little stressful, but prices are okay

I come here very often but they always have a new supply of goods to peruse. That also means that a shopper might not want to expect to be able to come back and buy something they saw on their last trip there. The staff is usually friendly and helpful, and the prices are what is to be expected of a goodwill.

Apparently they keep the good stuff in the back. When I went in there was a group of people waiting at the warehouse doors. None of the staff indicated what was going or even bothered to ask if they could help. Then about 15 minutes later a guy comes out of the back and asks everyone in the group to pick numbers and they could pick one thing off the cart when their number was drawn.

Friendly staff good service

I bought used computer here a few months ago. All their towers were priced at $150; Pick a tower, monitor, keyboard, and mouse. All the computer towers there are flashed and have a new operating system installed on it so it runs like new. It also comes with a 30 day guarantee so if it doesnt work, just bring it back with the reciept (normal sized paper with computer info) and exchange it. Mine works perfectly.

Good store. Clothes need to be marked better as far as size. Computer store is on the side and closeout store is in the middle. Visit all three places.

The people are for.the minority friendly, and helpful. The store needs serious cleaning and some painting .But in the last 2 years you have doubled your prices, for short term profit ...50 % of the time i do not purchase because some one in back room or home office not aware of returning repeat customers...

Great prices on amazing finds!

Rude employees at goodwill outlet side, nasty attitudes, horrible customer service, kids unattended running around store...

Purchased a pair of ladies Blue suede Talbots flats, on the this stores Shopgoodwill site. Sent a message at the close of the auction regarding payment and shipping. No response! It is now 10/06/18 ....now the payment link on my auction is closed...seller has not responded to numerous emails, phone calls and messages. I have been trying to pay since Monday Oct. 1st....but cannot complete the transaction because of this stores indifference. I will contact the corporate offices.

My review is in regards to the outlet store on Rivers. I visited the store on a Monday morning, drove in from out of town for it. There was a good selection of items, I really expected it to be cleaner than my local Goodwill Outlet, no such luck. Overall, it was worth the trip. Watch out for other shoppers though, theyre insane! After rolling new bins out everyone crowded around and literally just started grabbing handfuls of clothes and shoes, throwing them into their carts..I was nearly taken out by a pair of rogue Steve Maden wedges...I can only imagine how many quality items were damaged in the chaos of it all. The employees werent the most friendly either, but with shoppers like the ones I encountered, I can understand why. A poor employee had to break up an argument between two shoppers while I was there. Apparently it wasnt the first time as the employee mentioned that he didnt know what their problem was but they needed to get themselves in check as he was tired of their drama. Yall are the only two I have problems with here!

Little bit expansive

Not your typical shop!! The CLEARANCE CENTER has tables piled with random clothing, others piled with housewares, and some with books. These are all sold by the pound. Clothing has its own price per pound, as do books and housewares. Keep them separated, if you can. I love it because if you have time to look, youre going to get amazing deals!!If youre not this adventurous or dont have the time, head NEXT DOOR to the regular Goodwill store.

Great selection with clearance center next door. The more you shop and collect points, the better the discount.

Still expensive Donations are free So why the retail store prices? i saw a pc in there for 700 bucks..... Yall forgot about the lower class people who needs this type of stuff for school work or connection. they sell u little broken stuff for 5 10 bucks though. I walk in and walk out every time i come there. i once bought stuff in bulk when i cam in now i just buy maybe 1 or nothing item in leave. 2 stars for greed i guess.

One of the better goodwillss I have found in my travels through NC,SC, FL and al. The computers works staff is knowledgeable, helpful and friendly.Check out the discount store in between retail and computers..buy by the pound. Found several treasures there.

If you want to get several pounds of books, this is the place for you. Theyralso have great deals on laptops. Laptops go for 60 bucks. The place is the bomb!

What once was a bargain store is now in corporate price range store . Whats going on? Has a lot of cool stuff but the prices will make u walk in and walk out just to just go to a department store and buy brand new... come on....

Not much stuff, mostly trashy looking

There are three goodwill store as well as the corporate office behind the three stores on this property. The three stores are as follows, a typical thrift/retail store, beside it, a bulk, pay-by-weight store, and beside that store is the goodwill computer store. My rating and experience is for the computer store where used computer items are sold. Great store for getting what you need for cheap.

Seriously, the GOOD STUFF is in the clearance center!!! I was visiting from Philly and decided to do a little thrifting. The Goodwill store itself was overpriced in its knickknacks, and I wasnt finding anything that I liked. I noticed a sign outside right next door that said Clearance Center, and asked an associate what it was all about because we dont have these centers in Philly. You have to dig, but its sooo worth it. The clothes are sold by weight and you can get some really good finds in there!

This clearance center is a joke if you have small kids and no stroller! Huge 2 seater strollers are allowed but not carts from the retail store? Seriously?!!! Some stollers are twice as big as the shopping carts and yet the shopping carts aren’t allowed because there’s no room. I took my son who is 19months old in there and we didn’t have a stroller because we were just visiting at the time! He got away from me and yes I was watching him ran out the door because it was wide open and no way to close it, took a step off the curb and fell face first on the pavement in the parking lot. He had a big scrape and bruise on his head as well as his elbow. All the goodwill worker that day said was “good luck next time buddy!” If we were allowed carts to those with babies this wouldn’t of happened. I love the prices don’t get me wrong but there needs to be a better way if handling these kinds of situations and the workers need to be a lot more respectful as well!

There must be a new manager who is trying to earn as much money as possible from donated computer equipment. The prices were good about a year ago now theyre just ridiculous. A 1TB hard drive sells for $54 brand new at Best Buy, they want $40 for the used one. Old and used Barebones PC with 160GB HD (no OS) and 2GB RAM, they want $70 and $80.

BEST PLACE TO GO AND LOOK AROUND AND SHOP

The selection of computers was a little bit of a let down. Not much there and what I did see could be found cheaper on eBay. Monitors though were 9.99 each. Found a nice AOC monitor I ended up bringing home.

Liked it very much, bought several coffee table books. They were a bargain. My best friend found a cookbook from a Church in Georga, that had resapies she remembered from her mothers past in Alabama; so very lucky.

Clearance center that lets you get things by weight, computer center and regular Goodwill. This location is hard to beat! Get there early though!

This is a nice place to shop if youre down on money and need some things for cheap. Very organized and would go back.

I was very pleased with the prices and the acknpwledgements from staff.

Not bad...some days better than others

Very friendly staff. Clean and organized. Great prices.

Is a good place to shop for clothes if you dont wanna spend a lot of money.

Bins weren’t great, and store is overpriced

The prices in the retail part are ridiculous. I cant believe how much items went up so much with in a year I last shopped. The clearance store is a mad house. The employees and management staff is horrible.

I was able to find great deals here like box set TV shows that I like for a great price.

Bought a computer system from the electronics side. Fred is awesome!

Good place for unusual items and VHS tapes.

Good customer service

Great bargains to be found. Always something different. Love saving money.

I enjoy visiting the Goodwill and/Thrift store. One never knows what to expect, great cut crystal to a good book for storytime.

You have to pick through bins here. Nothing is really separated. The cost is $1.19 per pound. There are a group of people who hang out here all day and they get aggressive when new bins are rolled out. They even bring small children with them and leave them sleeping in strollers in the corner! Very neglectful!

This place sounds like a nightclub (with an actual DJ) when you go in and if you have chronic migraines its an absolute nightmare. This is Goodwill.Theres no need to blast oldies at a volume where nobody can hear each other and that it creates a hinderance to some people such that they cant be there comfortably. I practically ran out of the store....

Great place to satisfy your need for a good brawl while also getting great deals on clothes books and miscellaneous boxes

Their computer side offers so much for so little cost. Had a computer built and the huge tv/monitor 32 was only $25. They have many power charging cords for laptops for only $2. GREAT prices and very knowlegable people working there.

I love the clearance center here ...I have found lots of Carnival cruise cups here for less than 40 cents a piece..

I love this store. There should be one on every corner.
