The reason for restores not delivering is quite simple. A small percentage of every dollar goes to the actual cause (building homes) of habitat for humanity restores. 22% to be exact. Overhead is huge, insurance is very expensive. Just to have a weekly dumpster emptied, we're talking upwards of 700. Every employee costs the company on average 24$ hr. 7-8 employees pr store (depending on size) operational cost can easily exceed 400k. Delivery service would double the operational cost not to mention double the insurance which equals half the homes built

I was pleasantly surprised how much better the Ashville restore is than other restores I've been to. More selection & better prices.

The selection can have some good finds for a discounted price, but not sure why they don’t have a deliver option when they have a loading area with trucks. Definitely costing them some business.

I come here often for affordable odds and ends for Projects Or cheap furniture to replace things. I hadn't been in in a couple weeks and when I went in today the prices of things shocked me. Multiple broken pieces of furniture for over $200, miscellaneous doors for a $100. Many things that you'd be better off just buying new. Sadly I think habitat has become another victim of the reseller wave

This place has been a blessing to my wife and I as we are remodeling an old trailer home. We've replaced all the cabinets, sinks, and now doors, thanks to this Restore.

Come shop where the workers sell your claimed items! Green tags mean NOTHING when you take the other half here. I got a chair, had the tag, and personally took it to the counter and informed the girl that I was going to buy it but just started my shopping and would be done soon. She had me set it off to the side, I showed her I had the other tag and she said it would be fine. NOPE! She immediately sold it to someone else! When I asked why she would sell it during the protected hour of a claim on it and to someone without the other tag, she just shrugged and said it was open to buy even though it’s stated throughout the store that it’s company policy to hold it for an hour. She could have just apologized but instead refused to acknowledge that she lied to me and went against company policy. Wish I had gotten her name or a manager but she was so intolerable I just left. Clearly common sense isn’t her strong point.

So if the employees tell you you can leave something up front, don't some low life thief walked right up and stole my computer chair and the lady behind the counter watched it happen. She told me I could leave it there while I shopped I already paid for it! That's low to steal my chair I already paid for it!

While I have shopped many Habitat for Humanity ReStore's and loved all the treasures I have found, this review is directed to the deconstruction and donation department specifically.I am an Interior Designer and I was looking for a reliable and affordable option for a kitchen deconstruct for my client. My points of contact, Michelle and Colin could not have been friendlier and responsive. All my questions were answered in a timely manner and a date was added to the calendar for my project.The team arrived on time, worked together, handled the cabinets, granite, remaining walls and floors with precision and care. Further, they were all happy to help! They left my clients home cleaner than when they arrived. One of the best parts was the cabinets were taken to H4H to be resold.I highly recommend the deconstruction and donation crew at Habitat for Humanity. I will continue to shop and reach out to Michelle and her team for future projects.You are all doing amazing, keep doing what you're doing!

Website says they close at 6. I got there at 5:50 to run in and check the lighting section. After browsing for 5 minutes an employee came up to me and said they are practically closed and to come back after the weekend. I let them know I was from out of town and was just running in to browse for an item and they condescendingly responded by saying, “Oh they don’t have a Restore in your town?”

I knew Asheville had a top notch Habitat store as I’ve volunteered and have shopped there for 12 plus years , but when I visited stores in notable big cities in Tennessee, I was in disbelief the difference . The folks at the Habitat restore and all the volunteers that support it Bravo for all you do . Ashevilles habitat restore is a crown jewel ?

This store has everything jewelry, dishes , books , modern and antique furniture, decorations and paintings. If remodeling or building they have windows, doors , cabinets, light fixtures and appliances also patio furniture plus they have plenty of ideals for reuses of items check the store out and meet the friendly helpful employees.
