“This store is a real asset to El Cerrito. Always nicely arranged and tidy. I noticed that they have an overabundance of outdated clothes that are very colorful. Seems people prefer black, grey and beige these days, so I hope they have an ecological way to dispose of them.”

“The perfect companion to the Turnabout Shop down the street with closely aligned limited hours and very similar selection, organization, and pricing! Friendly service and interesting options; formalwear gets a little pricier than I would like but regular clothes are reasonable. Books and knickknacks galore. Limited menswear selection. Don't miss for your thrifting day in the area!”

“It's like getting into a treasure room. Jocelyn's (the owner) goal is and always was to have a free store, but she needs to pay the store's rent so she does plant sales. I don't know anybody more knowledgeable about plants than her, I got mine from her ages ago and they're thriving. Free UP is open only on Sundays now from 12pm to 3pm. Definitely one of my favorite places.”

“I would highly recommend coming here! The owner Michael is nice and the store is really clean. All of the clothing was sorted by color and it was very well organized. We liked looking through all the racks, all of the clothes were great quality and there was something there for everyone. The prices were also extremely fair. I will definitely come back the next time I am in Berkeley!”

“If you are over 50, or a "real senior", the Mastick Senior Center is a great place for a variety of activities. I, personally, love Line Dancing, Zumba and Yoga. Come and make friends while staying healthy.”

“I'm not one to leave reviews, but this place should get noticed! Found an awesome deal on a used mannequin here. The owner, Judi, has a fun personality and is really knowledgeable and helpful in finding what you're looking for. A good selection of mannequins to choose from. These were actual real store mannequins and you can't beat the price. Don't buy one from Amazon. Well worth a trip to her Oakland warehouse to pick one out. I would definitely go back. Thank You!”

“Great store, amazing finds, supporting an all women business is a win for me! Plus they had what I was looking for for my Christmas shopping list! It’s a circular economy- less waste in our landfill, affordable items for my wallet, repurposed items going to a good home and supporting single moms all while keeping our dollars in Oakland.”

“Purchased a musical instrument from The Salvation Army - Oakland Online Store, which I received via UPS. A plastic bottle of liquid conditioner was packaged in a ZipLoc bag along with two instruction manuals. Unfortunately, the liquid leaked inside the bag during shipping and badly damaged both paper manuals. After I submitted photos of the damaged manuals, The Salvation Army credited my account for them. I really appreciate their response on this issue!”

“I love Harbor House and everything they do in the community and this thrift store is just one more awesome thing they offer. They have a variety of clothes for children from casual to some dressy clothes, summer and winter wear, and we even picked up some socks and underwear that were actually new. Plus I think all the proceeds just goes back into all the programs they're running for the neighborhood. Win win!”

“DBFL is a wonderful place to shop for quality pre-owned goods. They carry women's, men's and children's apparel, accessories, home goods, toys, books, and a variety of other miscellaneous treasures. I always find the staff friendly and helpful.  It's a very fun place to shop, and best of all, the proceeds support the schools!”

“I always find gems here! This time, it was a like-new Princess Polly crop top and some fun costume items. Diana is so sweet - she let me take the items out of the package to make sure the sensor hadn't made any holes and even offered to check the back for un-sensored items. I'm looking forward to selling here - hopefully will have a great experience with that, too!”

“I have been to this Goodwill countless times over the last 6 weeks to drop off items. The very first time I was greeted by Delvon who was helpful, friendly and working hard. I had the pleasure of seeing Delvon often who was continually welcoming. Over the course of my drop offs I was also assisted by Rashon and one of the managers, Dot. There were many other workers who were equally as efficient and welcoming. I highly recommend this goodwill store to anyone needing to drop off items. They are organized, helpful and a pleasure to see! Thank you to a great team!”

“Be warned before coming here: This place is super small, I wouldn't call it a thrift store but more like a guy who sells used stuff. Don't get me wrong he's quite nice but if you're expecting clothes and vintage stuff don't come. It's mostly used applicances and used electronics. Still worth a visit if you're in the area”

The color-coordination and organization is extremely pleasing to the eye, making it much more easy to shop. Items are great quality, it’s clean, and spacious. My kids like thrifting so this is a great choice.”

“Be prepared to fight! ? resellers will run and beat you to the good stuff if you don’t. The entrance was definitely hard to find, it was my first time going here and I didn’t know what to expect. Keep in mind they seem to rotate bins out every hour or so, and the bins aren’t too deep. As another reviewer mentioned, you pay by the pound and can pay cash or card, by simply going past the gate and into the small office where they weigh your items.”

“I'm all for a shop that resells good clothes and they do just that. I came here to drop off a donation of some clothes and they took them. I really appreciated this. I got my ticket and left. It felt good to donate and I will do it again.”

“I just shopped at the Rodeo, California store, and what a surprise! When I walked into the store, there were displays of pillows, picture frames, and many other items artistically arranged. I hadn't seen that on my previous (infrequent) visits. I went to the glassware and dishes racks, and the items were displayed in a very appealing manner. Some were grouped by color, some as sets, others were creatively stacked. There was no jumble or haphazard placement of items. Everything was easy to see and interesting to look at. I learned that Pamela was responsible for managing those racks, and I met her and complimented her on what she is doing. In addition, I found the same kind of care and attention to detail for items displayed on and along the walls. Pamela's work made me feel like a valued Goodwill customer. She assured me that the clothing racks are as well-organized and managed by another employee, whose name I didn't get.”

“Hands down, the best experience when it comes to donations. The pick up process was so easy, responsive, fast and on time. It is as said on website and you dont need to speak to a human to clarify anything. I highly recommend them over other places when it comes to donating your large items like furniture, bikes...And yes, the instructions are clear on their website that the furniture needs to be outisde / at the front door your building ready for pick-up. So please do not expect them to lift it from your floor in an apartment building and walk down the stair/elevator with it. Super clear instructions. Thank you.”
