Thrift Stores near Burlingame, CA

“Very nice store and staff too. Lots of variety of clothes and other stuff like kitchen Ware, jewelry, accessories and much more. Staff has always smile on their faces and helping customers.. Also there are variety of clothes and homes for dogs ? and cats...... Highly recommend. Thanks,.”

“I have shopped here for many years and find this to be a good store with mostly friendly, very helpful staff and a nice selection of items, which are well organized. My only complaint would be regarding a rude female employee (shoulder length dark hair, glasses, stocky build) who I have regularly encountered not delivering the same level of service as the rest. If you happen to be there at closing time, you'll likely know who she is. The sign indicates that the store closes at 7:00, however at least 30 minutes prior to that she begins dimming the lights, turning off the music and making numerous, rather demanding announcements and informing people as they shop, that they need to discontinue shopping and check out. More than once, at 6:45 or sooner, I've heard her announcing that the store is now closed. The last time I was there, she had everyone out of the store and the door locked at 6:50 PM. As a former business owner myself, I would want to know if I had employees who were closing up shop early and running people out the door before the posted closing time.”

“I purchased a blender from here and it was in perfect shape. The people who worked here are very nice and I can’t wait to go back and find what other treasures I can find. Reasonably priced and worth checking out.”

“Places like this are hard to come by: family-owned, lots of vintage and other secondhand gems, and great prices. You will find something unique here. I was also really happy with the size range - I found lots of great trousers and suits in sizes 12-20. Lovely, friendly staff as well.”

“SUMMARY: Solid 4/5 I love the convenience of this little thrift shop along Grand Avenue. Starbucks and all the food places are along Grand, so whenever I'm planning on getting a coffee or lunch in the area I always feel compelled to stop by and skim the racks. I've found a variety of gems all for very reasonable prices (all under $10, with most of my purchases being $5): Topshop cozy sweater, leather heels and loafers, Express slacks, Joe jeans, and more. TIP: while they have a lovely shop and collection on the street level, don't forget to make your way to their basement level for even better deals.”

“There's a sad lack of quality thrift shops in Fremont ever since my beloved Thrift town closed about five years ago. Recently, we were visiting a store in San Carlos and I looked up thrift shops nearby and came across Thrift center. I was amazed from the moment I watched through the doors. It's clean, very well organized, large, and the items there are higher quality than I've seen another thrift shops. We left with a beautiful leather office chair that was $25, marked at 50% off, so I practically stole it at $12.50. There were some beautiful designer blouses that I snagged, at such low prices that I could not believe my eyes! My companion got four Quality shirts and we left having paid only $43 for everything. The staff is very friendly and helpful, and there are quite a few employees always around, tidying up, or adding new clothes to the racks. All of the employees I tried speaking with only spoke Spanish, but the nice gentleman at the checkout spoke English. My only complaint is that the clothes are not arranged by size, So you have to do some digging to find your size. That could be a bit time-consuming when it comes to men's pants. But the clothes ARE arranged by color, which is nice.. The parking lot is behind the store. You can park on the street directly behind the store and walk through the small parking lot to get to the store. There's also driveway entrance that you can't see very well, immediately after the gas station. All in all, I can't wait to get back there with some friends. It's definitely worth the Dumbarton bridge toll!”

“We go to a lot of Thrift Shops and by far this store has a nice selection and is organized, and clean , with reasonable pricing What stands out about this store is the "Management " the employees are nice and the Manger "Rosie" has great customer service and excellent leadership . We will be back”

“I’ve been having so much fun buying things at Turnstyle. Being that it’s run by volunteers their service is always excellent, the shop is extremely clean well organized and such a pleasure to shop there for really great deals.”

“This is a tiny shop with somewhat limited hours. But if you go at the right time, you'll find some treasures for a very reasonable price! Nice people work there. Check it out!”

“I really enjoy coming to this thrift store in Daly City as I typically find something I can wear or use in my home. The store is neatly kept and all the staff are very helpful. The store manager, Daisy, is always greets me with a smile.”

“I took my teenage grandchildren here during vacation in Pacifica and ended up going back again before we left.One of the best consignment/used clothing stores we have ever found. Huge selection for younger adults and teens but I found a few things also. Converse, Urban Outfitters, anime, graphic tees, jackets, tons of jeans and shorts!Friendly helpful waitstaff especially Madison, Kira and Ali.Going back again soon......worth a trip across the bay.”

“I'm an avid thrifter and this is one of the better thrift stores I've come across. Everything is pretty reasonably priced for what it is, especially compared to Goodwill and other thrifts. They definitely do price certain items a little higher (name brands, new with tags, etc.) but it's not as terrible as most other places, and still a place I'd recommend to find some treasures on a budget. The store is clean and nicely organized. I went on a Thursday afternoon so it wasn't too busy and not super loud/hectic. Can't speak for weekends or other popular times.The store is predominantly womens' clothes. They have a good variety in brands, prices, and types of clothing. They have a good mix of vintage and more "modern, trendy" brands and styles. The child and men's section is a little on the smaller side, so if you're primarily looking for that, you won't have as much luck. Though I am on the younger side, I do enjoy how this store doesn't try to cater to my age group or "trends", so they attract a more considerate customer base in my opinion. I didn't interact with the employees aside from checkout but the woman was very nice :)”

“The Goodwill Outlets are always a bargain hunter's dream! Since they charge by the pound, even if you only find one or two things, its always worthwhile. Visted on a Thursday and it was surprisinly quiet! I usually go to the one in Oakland which is much busier.Only 4 stars because, even though they clearly have a huge amount of inventory, they don't rotate the bins very often. I don't know why they don't rotate once an hour or so, instead of dragging it out for over 2 hours! Maybe it was short staffed today?Parking was easier than expected! It's street parking for 2 hours but it was quite easy to move the car to the other side of the street. And yeah, definitely bring your own bags!”

“This is a larger location with three rooms worth of items. It's a little messy on the inside, but everything is generally where it belongs. The staff are nice and the selection is decent. They've got all the movies and video games on a little shelf in the first room. Valuables are up front per usual.”

“Decent drop off with pleasant staff. BUT in spite of what the website says and what we were told on the phone yesterday they do NOT take televisions. Hope they make sure their site and staff know this when people ask.”

“love love love plato's closet literally hated the thought of thrifting until i found this shop i love the selection of clothes you can find and the prices are literally half of what the real things cost. lowkey am gonna gate keep this cus this store is SO IT!love the service as well they are so nice there are fitting rooms to try on as well”

“I cannot say enough nice things about the new store manager Nicole. I was there earlier this morning, and found my mothers place settings of China, ask if she had any more in the back, she was kind enough to look, and I was able to surprise my mother with 6 More New Pl. settings to her China. Denise is absolutely awesome. Highly recommend this thrift store.”

“When a gal goes to a goodwill to find vintage or (gasp) antique treasures she isn’t there for their award winning customer service. She’s there to bob and weave, squat, lean, hawk eye each and every isle ( twice!) to ensure she walks away with at least one epic item she didn’t know she needed. Now, will I tell you exactly what I’ve found several times in this thrift? Nope! But I can whisper to you there is some awesome vintage kitchen on those shelves if you are committed to digging around. The carts here get swarmed when pulled out so don’t even try to win that tussle. To be successful Just be patient, ignore the hot/ humid smell, the lackluster customer service AND GET YOUR TREASURE. It’s a goodwill folks, not a fancy shop. Going in with this mindset will make the experience for you much better. Side note, it also makes the experience for their employees much better.”
