We thrive on donations!
We take most building materials such as doors, windows, carpeting, paint, lumber, hardware, cabinets, plumbing fittings & fixtures, electrical fittings & fixtures, tools, etc. While we love to get new donations, we also take many used items in usable condition. Before you donate, ask yourself, "Would someone be able to use this to improve their home?" If you're not sure, give us a call at 619-516-5267 and we'll be happy to answer your question!

3 Good Reasons to Donate:

  1. It's good for the environment ---Help promote recycling and reuse by keeping good materials out of our landfills!

  2. Families and neighborhoods need your help! --- All funds raised by the ReStore go directly toward building more houses for low-income families in San Diego County. Your donation can help a family achieve its goal of owning a home and help revitalize a neighborhood.

  3. It benefits you!--- Because Habitat is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, all donations are tax deductible! An itemized donation receipt will be provided.

Donations can be brought to the ReStore Monday 10:00am-3:00pm, Tuesday-Friday 9:30am-4:30pm and Saturday from 10:00am-3:30pm.

If your donation is too large for your car or truck, give us a call and we can arrange to pick up your items. We are asking a $20 donation now for all pickups. In short, donating to the ReStore benefits the environment, helps neighborhoods and homeowners, saves you money, and makes you look good!
