Miami Rescue Mission – Bargain Barn

If I could give no star I would.
Waited whole day for them to pick up sizeable furniture donation. They called three times saying the truck is delayed. On third call they said they had truck emergency and I was being unreasonable for being upset that I waited all day. The manager said they would reschedule and I would be first thing in the morning the following week. I agreed and that second scheduled day there was no call. I called them and they said «either before 12 or after 1». They called at 12 to say that driver tried but couldn’t get a hold of me to say that they can’t reach my building. For some reason they were able to reach me to tell me that only at 12. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME, go with another company willing to take your DONATION.

even though it took me a minute to find it, i am so glad i went. if you have patience and a good eye, you can do well. i got a mission style gate leg table, very heavy, good wood, for TWENTY BUCKS. And they carried it to my car.
there is a lot of junk but like I say, keep your eyes peeled and you could do really well.

For those of you who donate your clothes to the «goodwill» get with the program! It’s 2013. The goodwill is swimming with clothes that no one will probably ever see! Donate to a local charity where you can be assured that your items will go directly to people who desperately need them. I googled a place that would pick up my leather couch that my cat did some damage on (aka clawed the shit out of it). It still looked nice but in the light you could see all of her scratch marks. I would have felt so guilty to throw it away because it was in such good condition so I decided to donate it.
The Miami Rescue Mission was the first that was able to pick it up from my building. I was surprised when they were on time for the appointment. The people who picked it up were SUPER nice and very thankful for my donation.
In addition, I recently filled a HUGE garbage bag of clothes that I will absolutely never wear or can’t squeeze myself into anymore. I didn’t want to donate it to the Goodwill so I went to the Miami Rescue Mission for women & children and again, they were so thankful for my donation. You can drop in at anytime to leave your clothes/​donations. The door may be locked (as it was for me) but just knock or call them and they will come to open the door.
I will have to donate my time next time and volunteer with them. Can’t wait!

I used to donate money to the Miami Rescue Mission but decided why not actually volunteer and help others. I’ve started volunteering about two months ago and couldn’t be happier. Everyone is so friendly and has such positive energy.
I help out in the kitchen on the weekends to help feed everyone who lives at the facility and also the homeless. I highly suggest you join this cause and help out. You will see and understand that everyone deserves a chance and when given the right tools and opportunity, we can all succeed!

Miami Rescue Mission is another amazing thrift shop hidden in the warehouses and galleries of Wynwood. If you turn down the street where the Salvation Army store is located, look for a sign at the corner, and it’ll lead you to the Miami Rescue Mission (but don’t rely on the address printed there, cause it’s wrong!).
You enter through a garage and are soon ensconced in a sea of furniture. I saw tons of dressers, entertainment centers, desks, vanitys, and countless other items. Also, tons of TVs available for the taking (no flat-​screens though).
As you wander through, you’ll notice that this place pretty much takes up the whole block, through a series of inter-​connected warehouses and tents. While in search of picture frames, we wandered through tons of keepsake goodies — various knick-​knacks, vinyl records, old magazines, and other tsotchkes — all ripe for the pickin’.
I could easily have spent all day in there, but entered that day with a singular mission — picture frames. To that end, there were tons to choose from (even though I only left with 2). I can’t wait to go back and see what other goodies Miami Rescue Mission has in store!
