- LGLeisa Goodwin2 days ago5.0I really enjoy this smaller Goodwill store.
- RLRob LewisJan 6, 20261.0So the place was average. But the entryway is beyond the need of repair. I am a quadriplegic and I have to use an electric wheelchair. Getting in and out was equally difficult as I was disappointed. I'm not sure it worth my trip.
- BCBruce CrowJan 5, 20265.0Very clean gray merchandise.Everyone should check out this store
- NLNam LaMoreDec 16, 20255.0I really like this Goodwill location. The store is clean (both the parking lot and the interior) and the employees are friendly. The quality of the items stood out; they were things I actually wanted, not the usual second-hand or garage-sale leftovers. Prices are very fair for the quality offered. I also received great customer service from the cashier (I didn’t get his name: an older, tall gentleman), who was friendly and efficient.
- AGA G-PDec 12, 20255.0Going to the Goodwill is like going to a museum of some sorts. Even if you are not looking for anything... you are guaranteed to find at least something.
