Goodwill Store & Donation Center

A Community-Focused Thrift Destination in Reading, PA

Goodwill Store & Donation Center in Reading, PA offers more than just a discount store experience—it’s a nonprofit organization on a mission to empower our community through job training and environmental sustainability. As a premier thrift store, children’s clothing store, men’s clothing store, women’s clothing store, used clothing store, vintage clothing store, and used furniture store, we welcome everyone from savvy bargain hunters to families seeking quality apparel. Whether you’re dropping off donations or uncovering hidden gems, our doors are open to shoppers and donors alike.

A Treasure Hunt Through Diverse Selection

Step inside and you’ll discover a treasure-hunt experience that keeps customers coming back for more. With racks of gently used and vintage clothing—ranging from classic denim to one-of-a-kind dresses—there’s something for every age and style. Parents tell us they love browsing our children’s clothing section for brand-name finds at a fraction of retail prices, while fashion enthusiasts applaud the thrill of sourcing retro pieces in our vintage clothing store. Beyond apparel, our used furniture store presents occasional statement items, and the non-clothes section brims with seasonal décor, books, electronics, and household goods. “My favorite thing to do in the store is going through the nonclothes section. What a wonderful treasure hunt,” says one loyal shopper.

Savings That Stretch Your Dollar

We understand that perceived value matters—even more so when customers compare us to Walmart or Dollar Tree. That’s why we’ve invested in a color-coded discount tag system: each day of the week highlights a different tag color at up to 50% off. Shoppers love spotting green tags or waiting for “blue-tag Wednesday” to maximize savings. Add our Goodwill Loyalty Card to your wallet, and you’ll unlock exclusive deals on select markdown days. Seniors also enjoy a 15% discount every Monday, further reinforcing our commitment to affordability. These targeted programs directly address customer feedback about pricing, ensuring our thrift store remains an attractive alternative to big-box retailers.

Friendly Faces That Make the Difference

While every visit is unique, certain team members have become local legends for their warmth and professionalism. Take Loretta, whose proactive curbside assistance means you never have to struggle with heavy bags in the parking lot—she’ll load your car and bid you farewell with genuine gratitude. Or Jayden A., an outstanding cashier whose polite, efficient service earns rave reviews: “Give this man a raise,” a customer once wrote. We’ve also heard that some registers close too early, creating lines. To improve checkout efficiency, we’re training additional staff to open registers promptly during peak hours, reducing wait times and making sure “long lines” become a thing of the past.

Clean, Organized, and Continuously Improving

A well-organized layout can transform a thrift store visit from chaotic to delightful. Many patrons commend our clean aisles and neatly sorted racks, noting that it’s easier to find sizes and styles quickly. We’re mindful of feedback about overcrowded shelves and inconsistent size separation, so our team regularly audits each department to maintain order. Quality control remains a top priority: electronics and gadgets are tested on-site to minimize the chance of purchasing a broken item. While no thrift store can promise perfection, our commitment to continuous improvement ensures that every visit feels fresh, inviting, and reliable.

Donation Center: Fueling Positive Change

Our store doubles as a donations center where community members can drop off clothing, household items, and furniture. Each contribution supports Goodwill’s broader mission—funding skills training and career development programs for adults and youth in the Reading area. Donors appreciate the convenience of our drive-through drop-off lane and the immediate impact their generosity achieves. By recycling usable goods, we reduce landfill waste and create meaningful opportunities for local job seekers. When you donate or shop here, you’re not just saving money; you’re investing in your neighbors’ futures.
