Goodwill Northern Michigan in Traverse City is a long-standing nonprofit thrift store with pre-owned clothing, furniture, housewares, and more. It is a good, very clean, and organized store with many options and friendly staff. Purchases and donations help deliver food to pantries and help people access shelter and housing in Northern Michigan. Shoppers can find good name brands in good condition at low prices, along with items like shoes, costume jewelry, and glasses. A convenient drive-through donation center is available. The store offers a discount for service members or vets and has a 30-day return policy for store credit. A noted downside is that clothes are not washed, so they may have an odor. The store also lacks fitting rooms, which some find inconvenient. Occasionally, shelves can appear bare, but the business responds positively to feedback.
A decent goodwill compared to others I've been to. I try to go here when I have time.

I don't get all the one star reviews. This is a perfectly fine Goodwill- it's clean and the staff is friendly. There are a lot of other options in the area but this store is worth a stop.

Small store with a lot of "new" items from like stores. Very small selection of everything in general.
