“You can always find something at the scrap exchange. I bought some quilting books from the 90’s and Crochet/knitting books with nice patterns. I even saw a Royal Typewritter from the 1960’s which I learned how to type on back in the day, good price I thought. You never know what you’ll find!”

“Doesn't have a lot of glassware, mainly clothing and media. But the books and DVDs are so well organized it's worth it if you're trying to find some new reads!”

“A wonderful local business that sells beautiful clothes and housewares at very reasonable prices. A fun place to shop as often there are very interesting and unexpected things on offer. Proceeds go to support people who have experienced sexual assault and domestic violence. The staff is very professional and courteous.”

“Got a nice rolltop desk for my office at this TROSA for 30% off; including delivery, it only cost $100 total which was still much cheaper than other alternatives, and I didn't have to move it myself! The delivery process was clean and straightforward, and Chris B. and Charles C. did a great job with the delivery. Thanks TROSA!”

“Really cute and high quality collection of fashionable women's clothes! Super nice and helpful store owners. Just note it's in the back of the barber shop so a little hard to find at first, but it's a hidden gem!”

“It’s a great place to buy thrifted items especially clothes. Most importantly the employees are really nice and very helpful especially the manager Justina, she’s the sweetest. I highly recommend people to check this place out. I came here just to shop for a few clothes, ended up buying so much stuff 😆

Highly recommend”

“Friendly staff, interesting stuff, and good prices. A couple times I've been by, I've picked up some high-end designer stuff. Like all thrift stores, a couple times I've been by and found nothing. Park in the Food Lion lot by the car repair shops.”

“Today our family donated a lifetime of furniture and household treasures from my 96-year-old father's and 92-year-old stepmother's home of two decades to Habitat for Humanity. It was an emotional day for all of us.

Elijah and Jordan were great ambassadors for Habitat. From the moment they arrived, they treated me and my parents' belongings with kindness, respect and genuine enthusiasm. Their cheerful attitudes, sense of purpose and obvious belief in Habitat's mission transformed what could have been a heartbreaking experience into one filled with gratitude and hope.

They worked efficiently, communicated clearly, and went above and beyond by offering helpful referrals for places that could accept coats, blankets, and other items Habitat doesn't take.That kind of thoughtfulness makes a real difference.

As the family member coordinating this part of the transition, I can't adequately express what a comfort they were. Their professionalism reflected wonderfully on Habitat for Humanity, but even more importantly, their compassion ministered to our hearts during a significant life transition.

Thank you, Elijah and Jordan, for helping our family honor my parents’ legacy by paying forward the blessings they accumulated over a lifetime. You are more than a pickup crew. You are ambassadors for kindness, dignity, and hope. Habitat for Humanity is fortunate to have you.”

“I have proudly supported the Durham Rescue Mission for over 40 years. During that time, I have personally witnessed the meaningful impact of Ernie Mills’ leadership and the positive changes made to serve the homeless community in Durham. With that confidence, I give both financially and through donations of gently used items, knowing they will be used responsibly and truly benefit those in need.”

“My name is Isaiah and my brother Michael. Recently we’ve had the pleasure of meeting “Mary” the manager at this location. She has to be one of the most caring people in the world. Goodwill and this community is truly blessed to have her. Thank you Mary and the whole goodwill team!”

“I’m writing this review to express gratitude for the staff at this location. Probably the friendliest bunch of any local thrift chain or location in the Triangle. Only issue I have is I miss the Herman the Bullfrog song.”

“I dropped off my trusty old Travelpro roller bag at this Goodwill on Garrett Road in southwest Durham. The bag itself was in excellent condition except for the wheels which were missing their "tires" and therefore, the bag was relatively loud and a little bumpy when rolled. Like other Goodwill stores, this one has a separate door for donations, separate from the main retail store front doors. Goodwill is a no-brainer for off-loading items that are still in good condition and usable. During my visit, the hours listed on the donation door were: Monday-Friday, 9:00am-8:30pm Saturday, 9:00am-6:00pm Sunday, 12:00pm-6:00pm The donation drop-off area at this Goodwill is a narrow hallway with bins. When I showed up around 4:30pm on a Sunday, this location was busy with both donation drop-offs and customers going to the store. A young couple ahead of me dropped off a bunch of textbooks. I didn't know Goodwill accepted textbooks. I learned something new. A lady rolled up behind me in a Tesla SUV with a trunkful of stuff to give away including a floor lamp. There was one employee working the donation area. It wasn't clear where exactly to place donation items. No signs/instructions or anything, at least not that I saw. It looked like everything was being placed in the bins. I asked the employee if I should place my bag in one of the bins and he took the bag from me. I thanked him. If my wife and I need to give away any usable items in the future, I'll definitely keep this Goodwill location in mind. This Goodwill location is part of the Goodwill Industries of Eastern NC ("GIENC") network. There are over 40 GIENC locations, from Hillsborough to Calabash. In addition to this Garrett Road location, Durham has two other GIENC stores at 5267 North Roxboro Road and 5200 Wake Forest Road.”

“Best goodwill near me found so many nice Jackets, T-shirts, etc... no complaints on selection of clothing as I just go to the full bin of clothes. I was there once and the workers were working very had restocking the racks, bins, and shoes every so often and I was there for about 30 mins. This goodwill is so much better than the one in chapel hill, as they barley restock anything and when they do they bring a moveable cart of 12 items, which is all women's clothing.”
