Absolutely, hands down the best store! Very honest, helpful, knowledgeable and friendly staff. Do yourself a favor and check them out. Reuse is the best way! Truly a Tacoma gem. Much thanks!

I didn’t find what I was looking for but they had so many awesome things and the staff was friendly. If I owned a house, this would definitely be a place I would be handing my paycheck to often. Also, don’t forget to look up! They have tons of lighting hanging above.

Highly recommend this place! Helpful, friendly employees and an incredible selection of really unique and special materials. I was looking for wood to make a new fireplace mantel, and a friend recommended Earthwise, so my husband and I decided to check it out. When we described what we were looking for to an employee, he immediately showed us a bunch of great options. We ended up settling on a large piece of mahogany that had washed up on the Washington coast. They cut it to size for us, and we brought it home, sanded and finished it. I'm thrilled with the result, and love that there's a unique story behind my new mantel. I'll definitely be back for materials for future home projects.

Do you rent out your items?

Hailey Vasquez | Aug 13, 2022
Earthwise Architectural Salvage (Owner) | Aug 14, 2022

Yes. Rentals are a great way for people to use our items in their project without having to purchase them. People who benefit from rentals are theater groups, set designers, trade shows, weddings, photographers. We charge 15% of the total cost of the item(s) for the first 2 weeks and 20% for up to 4 weeks. Anything over 4 weeks needs to be approved by a manager.

Can you salvage my house? And if so, how much does it cost?

Hailey Vasquez | Aug 13, 2022
Earthwise Architectural Salvage (Owner) | Aug 14, 2022

Maybe! If you are interested in having us potentially salvage your project check out our Salvage Services page to learn more. As for costs, our crews work on a ‘no fee’ basis, further lowering your overhead by reducing labor and disposal costs. Earthwise offers a diverse range of reimbursement in exchange your reusable building materials: tax donation receipts through one of our non-profit partners, in-store credit, modest cash or check offers, as well as simply “get it outta here!” pick-up/drop-off and removal services.

Can you transport items from the Seattle store?

Hailey Vasquez | Aug 13, 2022
Earthwise Architectural Salvage (Owner) | Aug 14, 2022

We can! We only transfer sold items between the two stores. All transfers will go on the next truck traveling between stores. We try to do this approximately once every two weeks. Ask a member of the sales staff for more information.

If I find an item on your website, does that mean it's available and in-stock?

Hailey Vasquez | Aug 13, 2022
Earthwise Architectural Salvage (Owner) | Aug 14, 2022

Yes – unless marked “Sold” or “On Hold”. Since our online inventory is new (released in Oct 2017) we are updating our selection constantly. Items can be placed on hold for 24 hours, at which time they will be released.

Can I shop your inventory online?

Hailey Vasquez | Aug 13, 2022
Earthwise Architectural Salvage (Owner) | Aug 14, 2022

Yes! After years of customer feedback, we created an online inventory. The inventory went live Oct of 2017; our goal is to get 90% of both stores inventory online so you can shop from the comfort of your couch. Currently, we are focused on getting all new inventory uploaded to the website within 24 hours of coming off the truck!

Can I place items on hold?

Hailey Vasquez | Aug 13, 2022
Earthwise Architectural Salvage (Owner) | Aug 14, 2022

Of course! Earthwise offers 24 hour holds. You can place an item on hold either in person or over the phone. The hold is in effect for 24 hours from the moment you place it on hold. If the item you’re wanting to hold has multiple holds on it from other customers, your hold will start after the other hold(s) expire. You can extend your hold once as long as no other holds have been placed on the item. After the extended hold expires, the item must be off hold for 24 hours before it is placed on hold again.

Are you open to the public?

Hailey Vasquez | Aug 13, 2022
Matt Smith | Aug 14, 2022

Yes they are and it's awesome!
