Goodwill Industries

This is one of the nicest and most organized thrift stores I’ve ever been to. Everything is neatly categorized by size and different article of clothing which makes shopping much easier.
The staff is also really friendly and nice!

My 6^th update review.
After several visits for the past 5 years, I’m very satisfied and pleased that the Downtown/​Midtown Goodwill is defiantly the friendliest and the cleanest place to shop incredible selections of used clothes, books, shoes, antiques, and many more! As I entered their doors, the atmosphere is very remarkable in a friendly matter. The concept is much vintage contemporary made filled with indie background flare on it.
The employees are doing a fantastic job for making the customers like me a honest service! No cons at all!
Every items at this store is very clean and organized, so I can find and buy and items that I want. Since this store is very small, they have limited categorized items available like housewares and tools which it’s very rare to donate that place. Finally, the fitting room side is also very clean too which I can try the clothes or shoes out for a try.
Parking at Goodwill at L Street can be challenging to park. You can park it at the nearest surface street parking or the parking garage available. Otherwise, you can ride a bike, walk, or use public transportation without the hassles.
In the end, Goodwill at L Street is the finest antique and thrift store that I’ve ever visited! A well, worthy visit! My rating: 4 solid stars.

Outside; beware of sketchy neighborhood. Inside; one of the most clean, bright, and organized Goodwill I’ve been to in town.
They usually have a color-​sticker sale on Sundays where it is 50% off marked price. It is a great time to shop during these sales! There are things you would have not expect to find here :)
Also friendly customer service is a plus!

I thrift shop quite a bit, and this is by far, the most well organized and designed Goodwill I’ve visited. I found excellent pieces, great prices and the service was excellent!

I can say with certainty that this is the best Goodwill I have ever been to. I was told that they send some of their best products here and market it as a «boutique.» I have been here twice– recently for black friday where everything was 50% off! I found some great stuff and new items for cheap. They have a good selection of clothing and a nice DVD section too back in the home section. Must visit

This is a great place for deals and quality, slightly used things. Best Goodwill store in the area.

Wow! What a great store! Probably the best goodwill I’ve been to!
It’s like boutique store with gently used clothes.
I bought couple coats here and pants and I’m glad with the purchase.
Good job you guys! Totally recommend this place!

Kudos for having one of the nicer stores.
Downvotes for how overpriced some of their goods are. A fake Gucci purse was $ 20.00. I said «ebay has these for $ 9.99» and they said «Unless you can print it out and prove it to us, our pricing department is pretty right on.»
Major Downvotes and hissing sounds for what Rat Bastard neighbors they are. The drivers of their trucks are Number 2 on our Enemies List, right after Comcast, for how shabbily they treat their neighbors, who long, long, long pre-​dated them in this neighborhood. The trucks park right damn in the middle of the alley, blocking access to our tenant parking lot. They unload all their bins in the center of the alley instead of the side.
They can’t even pull forward enough to give us access to our parking lot because then they may have to wheel their storage carts another 10 feet, and that would be a pain the ass.
Showing up for your apartment with disabled plates or in a paratransit fan? Tough sh! t. Goodwill is busy right now. Seriously. They ignored us even when we asked if they could PLEASE just move forward another 10 feet. Nope. They are busy.
Mind you, this is rush hour at 5:15 pm when people are — shocker — coming home from work and using the one-​way alley which is the ingress into a tenant parking lot.
Can’t deliver inventory at any other time? Can’t hurry and move the bins? Can’t be bothered?
That’s Goodwill Drivers for you.
Emails to the regional manager helped at first, but as drivers come and go, and with ZERO help from store employees who just turn a blind eye, any requests to the drivers eventually fall on deaf ears.
Goodwill, indeed — unless you’re a neighbor.

A bit pricey, but all Sacramento goodwills are. Not much selection for guys, but it is good for pants shopping. don’t even think about finding t-​shirts here.

Man this Goodwill is legit! What am I saying of course it is, it’s in midtown.
First score of the day — an employee actually told me what my costume was! What’s that you say? Well you see I was going for schoolgirl, but then she was like «Britney Spears, right?» Sure why not! Britney it is.
Second score were some sexyass hot pink shoes for five bucks. Seriously look at these. I’ll wear them probably five times total so perfect.
Finally, I got season one of one of the best shows ever, That 70s Show. Six bucks. Okay this may not sound like much of a score but consider this: do you know how rare it is to find the first season of anything nowadays? You always have to start off with two, or three, or five. And then you buy all the other previous seasons for like ten bucks on Amazon plus shipping. And by the time they arrive you don’t even want them anymore. I’ve been looking for this show for a while too and there it was. Now I can finally put it on my shelf and never watch it but rest assured that it is indeed in my possession.
For a day that started off mildly shitty, then turned considerably shitty, after finding this place I can officially say it is «okay I guess».

I have to agree with my fellow tellers and say it is indeed the cleanest goodwill I’ve been too. It definitely has a mix vibe of a vintage and local bookstore shop. As soon as you enter, you can see the racks of Halloween costumes out on display. I didn’t find what I needed for my costume, but they had interesting set of costumes, wigs, and Halloween makeup. If you are looking for cheap wigs for Halloween, then this is the place for you. They don’t have a huge selection of regular clothes like the other Goodwills, but it is a smaller store.

THIS STORE IS SERIOUSLY THE CLEANEST AND FRESHEST SMELLING GOODWILL I’VE EVER STEPPED IN! I MEAN IT WHEN IT’S IN ALL CAPS LOL
I bought a pair of high top Coach sneakers because I needed high top shoes for spelunking (I know, why would I go trekking in muddy caves with Coach??) but it was only $ 14 and it was still in great condition: D
They even have fitting rooms here which is a plus because you never know if the cute stuff you find is even gonna fit. I was also surprised they had a good stock of packaged new items so you won’t be finding just used items.
I had the most pleasant visit and service here so if I’m in SacTown, you bet your booty I’m coming back! Lol!

layout/​vibe
When i walk in, i don’t feel like I’m in a good will, its more like a high end boutique! Great selections of brand name stuff and awesome good finds.
They always place the nice expensive brand name stuff inside the glass case. Also loose jewelry is inside the glass case as well.
Mens
On the left there is the mens section with clothes, shoes, ties, and hat, and about 4 rows of clothes. They do lack in the selection of mens clothes compared to else where.
Womens
On the right side of the store, is all the women’s selection of purses, clothes, and shoes, scarves and hats and etc.
Miscellaneous
In the very back of the store you will find a few rows of book shelfs with books, a few rows of CD, and the back shelves with lots of ceramic and glass decors, such as used plates or brand new vintage tea pots, and etc.
Fitting Rooms
I think the fitting rooms here are awesome. It is very roomy and great for trying on clothes and you don’t feel like your in a shoe box to do a quick change. Also clean inside the fitting rooms.
Restrooms
It is clean and near the entrance.
Overall they do have great brand name vintage or modern items if you catch it not he right time. I do agree the prices here are more and marked high, compared to other goodwills. I do have to say the stuff they sell here are in better condition and lightly worn or brand new with tags still on it. I love coming here often and checking in to see if i find a gem in here. Loves this place!

Was down here the other day and thought I would drop in to see what they had. After all, I’ve never been to a goodwill store before so I’m curious.
So, let me start out by saying that I am pretty big on shopping around so I know what certain stores prices should look like. While I was there I actually found a few used items that I could have actually got at the signature stores brand new for either the same price or cheaper. I saw a knock off LV for $ 24 and remember thinking to myself that I had seen the same bag in NYC brand new for $ 10. I can tell it’s a knock off because I own the real bag that I bought at the LV store 7 years ago and know what to look for in a knock off. I also spotted a few pair of Hollister shorts that I have seen on sale brand new at the store for the same price. There were some used sandles that were $ 12.99 and I remember thinking that I can go to marshals and pick up the same ones there for the same price too!
Why would I pay full price for anything used? If I were going to shop at a place like this, I would expect some sort of discount because it’s used. So, you won’t find me going to goodwill again.

As a downtown resident I was surprised to find I have been walking past this Goodwill for over a decade and had never explored inside.
It is much larger than you would expect from the small storefront outside. This goodwill is well organized and fits in with other clothing stores in the area.
Yesterday I found two nice summer shirts for eight and nine dollars each. my girlfriend found three blouses for similar prices.
My only complaint would be the same for most consignment stores, the men’s section is always five times smaller than the women’s section. But I guess most guys don’t go through as many clothes as most girls do.

I’ve only been to this location once but plan on coming back over and over. This is by far the nicest Goodwill I have been to and they have a huge selection. IT was very well organized and easy to find what we were looking for. We were there with a very specific need for a client but I enjoy thrift shopping for myself so I will be back for personal needs.

The cleanest and most well-​organized Goodwill I’ve ever been! Or because this one goes for the boutique style.
I visited Crossroad Trading the day before and was totally confused by the tags on the rack. Here, I got a way better experience and was able to start my hunt. Forget about your Goodwill-​impression, this location definitely serves tons of better quality (and also not your typical $ 1.50 cloth) items including women’s and men’s (only a few racks) cloth, shoes, accessories, home decors, DVD/​CD, records and books.
During my Sunday hunt, I got a few items that I couldn’t resist of not taking them home. A brand new pair of GAP stretchy pants with tag on (was $ 48) for $ 8.00! Also got a couple tops and loving the style & price. I’m a happy shopper. I went around 11AM and people started to flood in around 12PM. Cashiers were busy but still remain their friendly-​ness. I will def come back again for the next hunt (:

This is the cleanest and nicest Goodwill I have visited, as one of their «Boutique» destinations. Most of the clothes are priced higher than the regular Goodwills ($ 6.99 and up), but the quality is higher overall. The clothes also have those ink thingies on them that stop you from stealing them. Not that I would, but it was different than the normal Goodwill. :-) Also, no kid’s clothes, although there are some children’s books.
I found some really great clothes for myself and the selection for men here was WAY better than any other thrift store I’ve visited, so I also bought some work shirts for my husband as well. I dig it!

Clean, well-​organized Goodwill, set up as boutique. Prices are higher than a normal Goodwill, but im pretty Goodwills send their «good» stuff to this location. Mostly clothes, shoes, hangbags. Small (compared to other Goodwills) housewares, kitchen stuff. Pretty large book and DVD section.
Check out was a little annoying and moved slower than molasses. 6 – 7 people in line and one one register going, while other coworkers fussed about and didn’t offer to help at all. But Ill try to chalk that up to a one time thing.
I love thrift stores, and would more than likely visit this one again.

50% off all Halloween items right now! I just bought two costumes for a total of $ 25. Even when it wasn’t half off most costumes were around $ 20 compared to normal retail which is usually about $ 40 for a costumes.
Although this location is a bit small, it’s so much nicer and cleaner than the other Goodwills in Sacramento. Doesn’t smell and is well organized. However it’s a little more pricey and they don’t have a large selection of home items here. Probably because of the small space.
