More than a store.
People gain opportunity. The store gains capacity. The community gains stability.

Sustainability in Practice
Materials from cleanouts stay in circulation rather than going to landfills.
Workforce Development
Participants learn retail, refurbishing, logistics, and customer service.
Community First

Please don't donate
trash.
We love donations — but only items in good, sellable condition. If something is broken, damaged, has mold or pests, it can't come to the Shoppe.
That's where our sister company comes in. The Trash Porters handles junk removal, property cleanouts, and proper disposal.
Give it a second chance.
