About Goodwill Industries of the Columbia Willamette
Goodwill Industries of the Columbia Willamette is a non-profit organization that operates retail stores, outlet locations, two online shopping sites, and attended donation centers. The organization's mission is to provide vocational opportunities to people with disabilities as well as others with barriers to employment. Their donations and purchases fund their free job services programs, and they pride themselves on being good environmental stewards with their award-winning recycling and salvage operations. The stores are generally well-supplied and orderly, but the pricing of used items has been a point of contention for some customers. While the staff is often described as friendly and helpful, there are concerns that the prices are too high, making it difficult for those who rely on Goodwill's affordable options. Some customers have also expressed frustration with the permanent marker used to label clothing, as it can limit their options for wearing certain items. Overall, Goodwill Industries of the Columbia Willamette receives mixed reviews, with praise for its mission and operations, but criticism for its pricing structure, which some feel may be pricing out the very people the organization aims to serve. The organization is encouraged to revisit its pricing policies to ensure it remains accessible to all members of the community.
This store often has the items I am searching for. I often find new items here. The prices are typical for goodwill. The large parking lot has a lot of spaces. They also have a donation drop off area

Their prices are to high for a thrift shop and people not real friendly.
