🔨 Shop Spotlight: Habitat for Humanity ReStore on E 14th St
The Habitat for Humanity ReStore on E 14th St is one of the most useful shops on the Trail, especially if you are fixing up a house, building something or hunting furniture. Every purchase helps fund local home builds.
What it sells
- Furniture of every size, from dressers to dining tables.
- Building materials: lumber, trim, doors and windows.
- Fixtures, hardware and tools.
- Appliances and home goods.
Where the money goes
Sales fund Habitat for Humanity's construction of affordable housing, built in partnership with the families who will live in them.
Tips for shopping a ReStore
- Check the stock often. It changes constantly.
- Bring measurements and a tape measure.
- Think creatively. Old doors become tables. Cabinets become shelves.
- Ask about pickup and delivery for large pieces.
- Compare prices. Reviews mention that pricing can vary for the condition of some pieces.
Great for projects
Home projects eat money. A ReStore can supply trim, doors, cabinets and tile for less, and every purchase helps build homes.
