Goodwill Bins in Kansas City

"This is a very unique Goodwill I've never been to one that had this setup. Things are sold here by the pound. This is the Liquidation Center I'm assuming for all the Goodwills in eastern Kansas and Western missouri. Kind of a last chance sale place and that's why things are sold by the pound. It took me a minute to get used to this setup the bins are always changing too I think every hour so these bins move around and constantly have fresh merchandise. Read the signs in my posted pictures and explains how everything is sold bought a couple of things here by the pounds. Unique setup for Goodwill I've never been in contact with one like this nice little it's hidden in Metro Kansas City so if you don't find it on the map you're not aware of it too much. But it is a nice little store for what it is. If you willing to dig through the bins you can find yourself some bargains! Recommended highly if you have some time to rummage around the bins. You might find a really good bargain!"

"I used to LOVE going to the bins- it has went downhill since moving to Bannister. Allowing children is their biggest mistake, between it being unsafe, unclean and parents not paying attention to their kids running around…it’s ridiculous. Today a kid kept hitting a button on an electronic toy making the same sound for at least 30 minutes (I left so he’s probably still doing it). Customers are supposed to stand in line to get in but people just run and cut in front once the doors open. Carts are now allowed down the aisles and people block paths with them. Prices have gone up. Now they don’t do rotations while customers are shopping which makes the trip hardly worth it. Stuff is much more picked through now so I feel it’s safe to assume they’re keeping the good stuff to put online. One time I left my bag of stuff by the carts that were parked on the side so I could use the restroom and an employee dumped it out in the bin. Used to be 5 stars for me. Really unfortunate."

"Drove clear across the state. Online hours said open from 8am-6pm. Was told to get out once we walked in at 1pm. They close at 1pm, and reopen at 3pm. We gave up and just left with no plans to return anytime soon. Wasn’t the same fun experience when we last visited at their old location. Hopefully things change in the future, or they at least update their hours. It looked smaller and more cramp inside, but better parking. Goodwill has potential with the bin stores concept. Hoping things improve in the future."

"This place is absolutely the last place to go for anything. Everything is in troths for people to "dig" through. And is disorganized, buckets or bin can contain anuthing from broken glass to bugs. How can u know? It was absolutely the worst, there are signs that say the section your in, but guess what... mystery bin is the whole store. There where so many people, it felt like a feeding frenzy on 90s show ~ living single at the le bargin hut. I am all for deals, steals and repurposing but not from here. I dont care if it is .99 a lb. If you are brave... go for it. Obscured faces to protect the thrifty."
