Update 6/30/22 - changed rating to 4 stars from 1 star. Manager (Dan) coordinated additional pickup for left behind section of bunk beds. Hopefully staff will be trained and canned responses will reflect the supports for bunk beds are included in approved donations. 6/23/22 feedback- I find it very wasteful that u will not take the wooden plank support bottom that comes with the bed frame when a bunkbed is purchased.  This isn't a box spring- why won't the team accept this part of the bed?  Someone has to build or buy this as an extra purchase even though they may be strapped for cash? I am disappointed. It would have been helpful to know that you considered the wooden planks that cross the framing a "box spring" when u sent the original note explaining mattresses are not accepted. You should revisit how bunkbeds are sold because that is part of the furniture purchase.  Not a purchase i had to make separate for a "box spring" as your techs tried to explain it. Thanks for considering.

Fantastic people and products all at affordable prices. As a young guy without a lot of pocket change, this place is a dream!

I needed two cabinets and they took my number and called me when they had them. I was going to buy the new unfinished ones. THIS SAVE 150 BUCKS!! Thanks for great service.

I went there 15 minutes before close because I wanted to take a quick look around and they already had their doors locked. Their hours are posted clearly on the door stating that they should have been open until 5. I was not the only person upset about this, because after I went to my car, 3 other people walked up to the door as well. I understand that they closed in literally 15 minutes, but they should lock their doors at their actual closing time instead of 15 minutes early because the staff doesn’t want to deal with anymore people for the day.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

Hi Sharon, Thanks for thinking of us, but we don't accept clothing donations. Goodwill or AMVETS are great options though!

Do ya carie windows

Carmen Rivera | Jul 12, 2022
Dan Petronio | Jul 12, 2022

We do have some at both stores. Best bet is to stop in to see if we have sizes that will work for you.

I have a box of great condition toys. And I have a box of Xmas ornaments and decorations. Will you take either of those?

Christine d | Oct 15, 2021
Dan Petronio | Oct 15, 2021

Hi Christine, We would be happy to accept the Christmas items but are unable to accept any toys. The decorations and ornaments can be dropped off at either ReStore any Tuesday - Saturday between 9am - 5pm. Thanks!

I will have a gently used dresser and night stand to donate in August. Will the pick up crew come upstairs to the bedroom to remove it? I am a senior and don't have a way to get the furniture downstairs and out to the driveway.

Diane Werling | Sep 10, 2021
Dan Petronio | Sep 10, 2021

I'm sorry but due to liability issues we do not go up or down interior stairs on pickups. If you can find a family member or neighbor that can move things outside we would be happy to schedule a pickup. Thanks for checking with us.

Do you except old used paint?

Mike L | Sep 10, 2020
Dan Petronio | Sep 10, 2020

No, I'm sorry, we do not accept used paint. You will need to either dry it out with sand or cat litter and toss it with your garbage or it can be taken to the Monroe County Eco-Park for disposal.

Where can I donate clothes?

christina barnum | Sep 10, 2020
Dan Petronio | Sep 10, 2020

Hi Christina, While we don't accept clothing at our ReStores you would be able to donate them at AMVETS in Henrietta or possibly any Salvation Army store.

Will you still ake a pedestal sink in perfect shape? Please let me know. Thanks!

James Combs | Sep 10, 2020

Do you take 16 foot boats?? With title? Do you pick them up or do we gotta drop it off?

James Risden | Sep 11, 2019
Flower City Habitat for Humanity (Office) | Sep 11, 2019

Hi James, we do not take boats at this time. You can donate it to Habitat through our Cars for Homes program by going to habitat.org. You will find the link under Support and then Donate your car. You will still get a tax write off and someone will come pick up the boat. I hope that this helps and if you need any other information please let us know.

Does the habitat store have steel doors for sale?

Rhonda Pride | Sep 11, 2018
Flower City Habitat for Humanity (Office) | Sep 11, 2018

Hi Rhonda, Most of our inventory is donated by households and businesses in the community. We get steel doors occasionally, but right now they aren't something that is always in stock. For most items, the best option is to stop in occasionally and see what's new and what's on sale!
