Goodwill Store & Donation Center

Although the operation hours are until 8pm, they accept drop offs only until 5pm.
I’m disappointed since I was advised by the Peninsula drop off attendee that they cannot accept any more items and should go to this location.
Unfortunately, information is not shared within the Goodwill community.

The guys at the donation collection area were really friendly and very polite. I’m glad to hear they accept books, as well. They are open until 5pm everyday except for holidays. I will be back

Well organized thrift store. Hidden behind the main building in this center. Worth a shot if you like to shop in thrift stores.
Found the eye glass case I was looking for, only 2.99.
Give it a try and hopefully you’ll find the hidden gem you are looking for.
Good luck!

This is the best Goodwill around for finding really nice things. It’s just not easy to find. Which maybe is also good.

I randomly went to the GW after the gym in an attempt to find one fake flower for a project.
The woman behind the register was saying the most off the wall things to me when I asked for assistance. There was a tall thin older man full on dancing in the middle of the store… like Mick Jagger and to top off the weirdness, the manager was so rude to me.
The cashier asked her if I could purchase one flower, the manager ripped the flower from the girls hand and said no and that they’re sold as a set and how dare I
Pick apart the display. Uuhhh, display? The individual flowers were all thrown together in a vase.
Needless to say, I left with what I needed and I’ll never step back into or donate to that place.

One of the best Goodwills I’ve been to!!! It’s a pretty big store with a whole bunch of stuff. It’s easy to find a couple good things here. The store isn’t too messy or smelly and there are public bathrooms and two big dressing rooms. A bit of everything, not much furniture though.

It’s a decent Goodwill Store… I go there when I am looking for clothes and found some nice ones. It’s a clean store!

This is one of the nicer Goodwill stores that I’ve been to. This location contains 90% clothes and a small area of the store for furniture and housewares. I have found cute brand new dresses from Target here, all for about $ 6 each! Definitely a good deal.
I’ve been here a few times and haven’t seen a lot of employees around. There are maybe like two or three on staff at a time, so finding someone to unlock a fitting room for you or ring up your items when you’re done shopping is a little bit of a struggle.
But I will definitely be back here — hopefully I’ll score some more Target dresses!

I’ve only donated items here– haven’t had a chance to peruse yet.
The «drive thru» donation area was pretty good– they ask you if you want a receipt.
NOTE: They no longer take bedding.

Overpriced. Even without tax.
Sometimes, just sometimes you’ll find a deal. like $ 2.99 for toilet seat cover or $ 2.99 on pan.
Don’t buy Target items here. It’s all donated and all Goodwill even this one, charges more than the clearance price.

This store is ridiculous. The manager is Unknowledgeable, the companies policies are not followed correctly, the cashier was incompetent and they do not accept refund on appliances. They’re policy is to tape appliances («tags») and to sell then to the consumer. THE COMPANY DOES NOT GUARANTEE THAT ALL APPLIANCES –ELECTRICAL– work. They expect you to take it home and see of it works yourself. I recently bought a rice cooker and the company would not refund me for it. I washed the rice cooker AFTER I had taken the tags off (naturally, I’m not going to wash something with a bunch of tape on it.) and the rice cooker didn’t even turn on. The first goodwill I went to return it, I was in shock. The main manager was VERY UNPROFESSIONAL AND VERY GHETTO! (the one off of western and sepulveda) she argued with me for about 20 minutes about the item. Fire her she’s worthless and losing your company money.
The «assistant» manager at the crenshaw location was not much better. As I was trying to explain the situation, all he kept saying was «uh huh, sure». He didn’t say anything more. The cashier who sold it to me was there and I addressed the situation with her and she had told me at the time of purchase that the appliance could be returned along with the receipt. I had the receipt, and wash the appliance again, and she then changed her story telling me about the tags being taken off.
WHY WOULD YOU SELL APPLIANCES TO COMMON PEOPLE WITHOUT TESTING THEM FIRST? (goodwill does NOT guarantee that any appliance will work)
Save your time, save your money, and save your gas. Target has the same stuff it’s just a little more pricey, BUT AT LEAST THEIR COMPANY IS LEGIT AND CARES ABOUT THEIR CUSTOMERS.
I’ll never EVER shop at any goodwill again, and neither will anyone I tell. And I will make sure other people do not get ripped off like I did.

I’m surprised there aren’t more reviews for this place. It is amazing!!! Best Goodwill I’ve ever been to! It is clean and extremely well organized. It’s not that big, and carries mostly clothes… so if you are looking to furnish your new apartment with some previously loved furniture, you’re probably out of luck. I’ve found some pretty awesome stuff here, though. It seems as though that their clothes don’t have as many rips and suspicious stains as most of the other thrift stores I’ve been around
It is hard to see from the street. The address says Crenshaw since that’s the location of the shopping center, but you’re better off accessing it from behind via airport drive. It’s kind of stuffed off in a corner back behind Kohl’s, so it’s easy to miss.
Anyway, highly, highly recommended! Go! Enjoy!

It was a decent place. The prices were good and so were some the clothes. I felt like they didnt really have a lot of ‘fashionable’ vintage items only because they havent been around for a while but if you dig through, you ll find a couple gems :) The store has a standard price of which shorts were 4.49, jackets were 9.99 etc etc. Its pretty hard to find your size because they dont organize it according to size but rather color. One horrible thing about the store is that there are only two dressing rooms in which some/​many people take forever to get out.

This Goodwill location has been open since Jan. 2010, almost a year. It’s at the back of the plaza, between PCH & Airport Drive, by Kohl’s.
The inventory is almost all clothes, with a smattering of small furniture and cheesy knick-​knacks.
The clothing racks were so well-​organized that for a split second I felt like I was in a department store. And there was no putrid stale-​laundry smell in this newish space. Give it time, I guess.
If you’re smart you will leave all your crap at the Goodwill drop-​off next to this store & not venture inside… or you might go home with more crap than you just donated, which defeats the whole idea of clearing out your old crap.
I got out of there quickly without buying anything… this time. Then I headed back to Redondo along Newton St. through Walteria, a peaceful alternative to
PCH. This route took me right past the Salvation Army by OSH, however…

Crap.
