What Are Goodwill Bins?
Goodwill Bins are Goodwill Outlet stores. Merchandise goes into large rolling bins instead of being displayed like it is in a regular thrift store.
Many items are sold by weight. Some categories may still be priced one by one.
Inventory, rates, and store rules vary by regional Goodwill organization.
Are Goodwill Bins the Same as Goodwill Outlets? Yes.
"Goodwill Bins" is the common name shoppers use for Goodwill Outlet stores. They are different from independent liquidation bin stores, which usually sell retailer returns and overstock with a daily markdown model. See our Goodwill Outlet vs. bin store comparison for a detailed breakdown.
