Goodwill Outlets In North Carolina

There are a total of five Goodwill Outlets, or Goodwill Bins, scattered across North Carolina.

For newcomers to Goodwill Outlets, picture a warehouse filled with numerous large blue bins overflowing with unsorted clothes. Everything here is priced by weight, creating a haven for thrifty shoppers. Each Goodwill Bins location operates differently, but throughout the day, new bins are rotated in, offering the best chances to uncover name-brand treasures at bargain prices—keep an eye out for items that are still brand new with tags.

If you’re shopping casually for yourself and prefer to avoid the hustle of competitive shoppers, consider visiting a few hours after opening. This allows you to browse through items at a more relaxed pace with less competition.

Given the rising numbers of resellers and vintage enthusiasts, it’s wise to arrive early in the morning armed with gloves and a spacious shopping bag, as the Goodwill carts tend to be in high demand. Depending on the outlet, expect some friendly competition among shoppers—it’s all part of the experience. Keep in mind, some people make a living from this.

If your initial visit doesn’t yield any treasures, remember that new bins of items are rotated daily. Stay persistent, and with a mix of dedication and luck, you’ll hone your thrifting skills and uncover some gems before you know it. Best of luck!

This was the first time I visited Goodwill outlet store. Large size, plenty of selection, and I enjoyed the price the best. This was an amazing experience because they are willing to work with you on prices to make things extraordinarily cheaper than cheap! Great deal, great organization, I'll be back!

There are better outlets in NC. This one is a good size and wasn’t too too crowded but the resellers were particularly aggressive. Pushing and shoving, some just would mass pick up clothes and put them into rubbermaids without even looking at anything at the restock.. sort of creating their own separate “bins”. Takes out the fun and takes up space. I don’t think that should be allowed. I prefer my local bins

Zero cell service. No air conditioning. They only rotate 4 small bins at a time so everyone is jammed together for the new bins. Definitely makes the environment much more aggressive. Rotate way more bins at once to disperse people! Won't go back. They should be rotating 10 to 15 bins at a time. Very disappointing.

This is a bins store. Nothing is hung up. Everything is on the tables to search through. $1,49 / lb. If you are into thrifting this way then I can say you will always find something to use or flip. Bring your gloves and mask. The smell can be unpleasant. There is a regular GW next door if you prefer

Checked nearly 40 of these bin stores throughout USA, this about top 8 to 12. Not a huge store. Tables change regularly. Nice mix of gadgets and clothes. Not too much media. All manners are bad at bins, this one is a bit better than most.

I love going. It is like a treasure hunt and I have found some treasures. However, there are a few greedy people who are there every day and swarm the bins to grab the best items then hoard them til end of day when they make selections of what they really want to keep. Depriving others of the choices

I am a fiber Artist and totally love textiles. I love to check for treasures at the outlet. Some days I find a "gold nugget" that I can get to up cycle into art, other visits not so lucky. The downside at this location are the lurkers who come for the entire day and grab everything in site for resale at much higher prices. I have witnessed them crowding older people who are shopping because of need, not greed. I have also witnessed employees giving these lurkers a heads up when they are bringing something special out. It would be wonderful if everyone was treated fairly. 09-10-2019 I stopped by the outlet today and the " lurkers" were still there crowding people and snatching the merchandise. Again people who looked as if they were in need being crowded out by greedy individuals who brag about how much money they make when they resell the items.

The pound of clothes is 1.50 and with patience and searching you can find clothes in very good condition😉

One of the worst Goodwill Outlet locations I’ve ever been to. You’re lucky if you get a cart, people take 2-3 carts each and then block the aisles so you can’t look at the clothing. When they bring out new bins you’re not supposed to shop until all of the bins are out and the employees say you can start shopping, but people wait for the employees to turn their backs and grab handfuls of clothing without looking at them so you don’t get a chance. And there are so many unsupervised children, I’ve seen people stick their kids inside the bins or in strollers and then leave them unattended. Earlier this week I watched a toddler almost get hit by a bin rolling out, the employees asked for someone to grab their kid and no one wanted to claim their kid and make sure they were safely out of the way, CPS would have a field day here. Management needs to start taking action.

It was a bit overwhelming, we went on a Saturday, so that aided the overwhelm a bit. Sorting through bins was a bit taxing, trying to push by everyone else, but also exciting! My son found some stuff he really seemed to like, and the pricing is way better than other thrift shops around. The bathroom only had two stalls for the ladies room, definitely not enough! I will probably make my way back on a weekday morning next time.

If I could give zero stars I would. I have never in my entire life seen a group of grown adults go absolutely rabid over a pile of clothes until I stepped foot into this store. On top of that I was verbally berated by a worker who acted like he was purposely going to run into me for “standing in the way” (aka me standing behind a pole) as they were bringing out new bins. People were standing on top of each other, ripping things out of other peoples hands just to get their hands on unwashed bed sheets, sad looking kids clothing and ripped t-shirts with questionable stains. I love thrifting and taking the time to dig through piles is fun but, this place is on a whole other level of NO for me. Ridiculous behavior from staff and the people who go here. No one respects anyone. Sad to see at such a nice looking Goodwill.

For clothing pickers only. Disappointment. Checked nearly 40 of these bin stores throughout USA, this ranks nearly last. 3 short visits, did not buy 1 thing. Very small, yet very clean. No deals on hard goods, electronics or media. Not worth the frustration, and bad customer manners (typical for bins). The other BINS in NC ,SC have more of a selection, more space to browse.

Digging through the bins to find what you are looking for and shopping quick before someone else gets the item is addictive please be warned…lol The clothes are purchased by the pound so what you’d pay for a small bag of clothings at the Retail Goodwill you’ll be able to stuff 2 or 3 giant bags at the outlet. It was our first time to visit the goodwill outlet and it didn’t disappoint. First off nothing is organized so it’s first come first serve and everything are in huge bins side by side. Every little bin the staff will wheel out a few of the empty bins and wheel in a few new packed ones. This is where it gets a big crazy (see photo about the rules while in the store) cause everyone just dives in sorting through the bins and stacking their carts high or passing stuff off to their family/friend standing by to hold.

The quality of the stuff has gone down. Used to come daily and spend a good amount of money. Now I'm lucky if I find anything and usually walk out empty handed

Love this place, but you have to be ready for a bit of a hunt for goodies in a disorganized mess while racing others to the good stuff type situation- today paid $1.25 for a $400 down sleeping bag- was my 5th trip to this location today & ive gotten fantastic deals everytime.

Very nice, helpful, and polite staff on the "Bins" section. Found lots of books for our daughter's elementary class. Lots of clothes, not many shoes or purses. Overall good, clean as can be expected for a thrift store. Good shopping visit.

I am very disappointed with Goodwill Bins, this location has a few issues: -They have no rules with the bins so people will attack a bin before the worker can even get the bin back in place. ---(My biggest issue) If you find an unopened computer game, they will open it cause they want to know how many discs and/books are inside to charge you for each book and disc. They do the same for movies or games that have multiple disc's inside. It's just frustrating to see how low Goodwill will go to make a buck...

This is an OK outlet but, at least when I visited, no great finds. Lots of inventory but much of it was in poor condition and mostly big box store brands or old, out of style pieces. I stayed for several turns but still left without buying anything, which is really unusual for me. There were a few nice shoes but it seems like all the shoes at this outlet are unpaired and despite a lengthy search I could not find their matches.

Price is phenomenal if you have the time to literally dig through the huge bins of cluttered merchandise.. wish they had a better system for customers to see what is available for purchase.
