I've frequented many a salvage store and this is one of the priciest ones. I love their mission but not making it affordable for those of us trying to lovingly restore old homes. You'll have better luck on FB Marketplace.

I have visited many times over the years, and they always remember our discussions and projects. A real Iowa City treasure with great finds.

Super cool place!! The worker was very knowledgeable and quite friendly and welcoming, even though we stopped in close to their closing time. Only reason for the 4 out of 5 stars is because it seemed like some of the prices on very worn out products were a bit higher than expected.
The Salvage Barn, operated by Friends of Historic Preservation, preserves historic architectural items and keeps priceless materials out of the landfill. It serves as a source for homeowners to find historically appropriate and ecologically friendly parts.
