If you love thrifting, this place is fabulous for home decor and designer resale. Offerings are best early Saturday morning.

Very nice goodwill I’ve been in so far. Friendly and fast cashiers made the trip a great experience

Maybe you should train your employees on how to communicate. Instead of “you should just get back in your car, we don’t take that” maybe go with “sorry we don’t take that, but you I think (insert another org) does”. Northerners definitely need a lesson on communication.

Me and my girlfriend haven’t been to this goodwill in a couple months, she loved the clean updated look which felt like a department store while shopping. The employees were helpful and friendly.

Generally a very consistent goodwill, though a bit small compared to other Texas-sized locations, theres always some cool stuff buried in there if youre willing to put in a little effort.

Went there today and the manager Luis was really professional and handled the store like a boss would. I highly recommend them for donating and purchasing goods.

This is the worst of all Goodwill locations and the employees are apparently unhinged! Especially an employee named Louis. Me and my wife watched while louis yelled at a customer who was asking for assistance. We wont be back to this location and will contact Goodwill headquarters. The employee yelled so viciously at the customer, I thought he was going to attack her. My wife was terrified!

Great Goodwill location with lots of variety and a VERY well organized book section! Employees were great too! Check it out!

Review №15

This location is awful. There’s an employee who’s drunk on power and price checks everything. It took her 20 min to check out two people because she kept sending another employee to be sure that lamp or jeans were really $10. It was so embarrassing to be accused of “putting the wrong price on”.

Great store and location but need to watch their donation acceptance people. This last time I was there, one of them was going too fast and dropped a extra large emergency flashlight and shattered it.

Review №17

Amazing customer service. Specifically, Luis, the assistant manager of the store, was super helpful assisting me breaking down Christmas trees and hauling them to my car. Great example to set for others that work there 😊.

Found this Santa sculpture at this Goodwill for $4 and with a little paint, looks brand new and is one of my favorite pieces of Christmas decor.

Review №25

Super friendly staff greeted us as we entered the store and offered a shopping basket that had been wiped down. The store was very clean and well organized. The constant changing inventory means you never know what treasure you will find.

Review №26

Great store. Great people. Kind of wish there was more selection, but I guess you deal with what was donated and how much space you have.

One of my favorite Goodwills in Austin. We always check out their furniture and household stuff. The prices seem to have gone up recently but still not bad compared to buying new. The employees are nice and helpful.

I enjoy going to this goodwill with my daughter who has a disability. A big Hooray to Bobby, a helpful employee, who unloaded a TV stand for me before the store even open on Tuesday, yesterday.

Review №39

Variety was good, prices more upscale compared to Alaska. The staff was very friendly and helpful with expedited service. Once they learned I was from Alaska they and the customers were even more friendly and inquisitive. It made me feel unique. But the store was clean and nicely organized. I love Austin.

Review №42

I can’t believe the prices at GW. How can you justify them when you get your mounts of donations for free? Moreover, the lower the prices the less stuff you will be taking to the landfill. Shouldn’t you care about that as well?

Ol
Review №43

Was able to drop off my donation items quickly and easily. Even on the last day of the year they had the drop off line moving quick and smooth.I also went inside and was able to find the AC to DC power cord I needed for a special project and it only cost me $1.

Rude and unhelpful customer service. I tried to buy something that didnt sell at the last auction. They wanted to let it sit there another week. I told them name your price. They didnt want to sell it... some good will.

Review №49

Good selection, but not as organized as the ones in Virginia. The group clothes by color there, as well as size. Also, the prices are way too high. Ive put several shoes and shirts back and just ordered things and eBay and Amazon. Why would anyone pay so much for used clothes?

Very clean and organized. Would give 5 stars if all cashiers were smiling. Mine had a sour face and did not seem happy to be there. Other staff were helpful and friendly.

Review №51

Coming here is like going on a treasure hunt. I have a thing for 1960s to early 80s cookware and glassware and for that this is the place to go! You can get that edgy vintage look for a fraction of what you would pay at Anthropology or Crate & Barrel. Take a day off and do a Goodwill of Austin tour! I promise you wont be disappointed!

This particular outlet has a wide selection of furniture, kitchenware, and electronics and in really good condition. Not much in dvds and toys but what they have is great. Overall a fantastic place to pick up some odds and ends.

This is one of the best goodwill stores in the area. They always have an abundance of clothes, appliances, and especially furniture. If you need a cheap couch or chair for your apartment, this is the place to go.

This Goodwill is one of the better organized and run ever been to. One of my favorite sections is the weekly silent auctions they run at the front of the store.

Review №62

There is a very wide range of things in this store and the staff has done some work to try and organize things... especially the clothing. But throughout my time in the store there was one crash after another as customers were trying to pick through the kitchen and household goods. If you see something that could easily be a set you must look up and down and on multiple shelving to find the mates. And then things become a mess again.... and breaking happens again.Staff was nice and did great even though they were short staffed....

Review №63

Some good deals but some items can be purchased new for less money elsewhere. Who ever decides on the price of their items needs a reality check. It depends on what youre looking for.

Internet aint got nothing on the Goodwill. Keep your big dollars. I stay out of the mall. Get online 60% less. Use your saved money on your kids a good meal.

Ed
Review №75

Overly priced. Price should be based on quality and condition not based on name brand. Items should not be boutique price. What every happened to GOODwill?? If goodwill already gets their merchandise for free, why price it so high if ALL the proceeds are profit??? This location used to be my favorite. Ill take my love for thrift shopping elsewhere.

Review №76

I visited this store last week. They have a large book selection and I was able to find several good ones. I found some records and a pair of nice boots for just $10. The records are $2 a piece and so are the paperbacks. The hardbacks were $4. So I wouldve gotten more if they were cheaper, but Austin Goodwills seem to cost a little more than Im used to. The place was really crowded, probably the Holiday season. In all, I was happy with the experience and came out with some cool stuff.

Great deals, I found a new pare of pants that were originally $89.99 and I got them for $15.00

Items are way over priced for a Goodwill. Will definitely stop donating to Goodwill. They are too greedy. Some items I can find at lower prices at regular retail stores and in new condition. They need to revisit their pricing policy.

The most expensive goodwill in Texas. Was able to find some of the same clothes and housewares on amazon for the exact same price . I love goodwill and their cause but this store seems to have gotten a little greedy

The store is very clean and orderly but 2 women at the register were loudly badmouthing another worker. The younger woman was wearing a red sweat shirt and continued complaining to anyone that would listen. The older woman tried to change the subject but it didn’t seem to matter. Very unprofessional!
