We know you want to be good stewards of your stuff!
For over 25 years, the Habitat ReStore has been accepting donations from homeowners and businesses in our community. Thanks to generous donors like you, we’re able to transfer $100,000 annually to the building of Habitat homes in Monroe County, MI!
Clear your clutter & make a difference!
ReStore "Your Space"
When you find yourself needing to get rid of the old to bring in the new – the ReStore is here to take your furniture, appliances, home supplies and more!
ReStore "The Community"
The funds raised through the ReStore help build Habitat homes in our community, providing affordable homeownership to hard-working Monroe County families.
ReStore "The World"
By reselling and recycling, Habitat ReStores are able to prevent usable or recyclable items from being put in landfills.
ReStore Policy: The Habitat Monroe ReStore provides our local communities with an environmentally and socially responsible way to keep good, reusable materials in circulation while providing funds for Habitat’s mission. The mission of Habitat for Humanity of Monroe County is to provide simple, decent, and affordable housing along with critical repairs and veteran ramps to those below 80% of the median income. Money (proceeds) raised by our ReStore sales (profits) are the single largest revenue stream used to fund the Habitat mission. Our ReStore is open to the general public. Merchandise such as furniture, home decor, and building supplies are donated by homeowners and businesses in the community. We receive new and used merchandise daily and sell it at a fraction of the retail price. A few products in the ReStore are purchased by Habitat and resold at a mark-up.
As the ReStore is Habitat’s largest revenue generator of mission funding, strict pricing guidelines are followed. Donated products are typically priced at 50% of the retail value (depending on condition). This is our starting point. If products do not sell, they are typically reduced by 25% every month up to a 75% reduction. All purchased products are exempt to the markdown policy. The ReStore is open to, and attracts shoppers, from all income levels. Just like any other store, we have many products at many different price levels (not everyone purchases a Lincoln or a Cadillac, some purchase a Ford or a Chevy). If a customer feels the price is higher than they want to pay, they can wait until it gets marked down as long as someone else does not purchase it. Because of these policies, and remaining fair to all customers, we have a strict no bargaining policy.
Thank you for your support!

“Part of the stress of home projects is knowing what to do with the stuff we are replacing. The Habitat ReStore is a stress-free solution. They come and pick up the items and take them off our hands! It is for a great cause too, I always feel good donating to the ReStore.” – Mary Louise A.
“90% of the furniture I restore comes from this location. I have to say, this is one of my FAVORITE hidden gems in Monroe! As a mom of 3 on a budget, I’ve always appreciated the selection of furniture (both old and new) that Habitat offers. Every piece is given a chance at a new life, which is pretty cool! Plus the organization gives back to the community in a big way. The staff are kind, and offer a sweet smile almost every time I visit as well. 
I highly recommend checking them out!” – Amy B.
