About ReStores

 

What's in a ReStore?  Click here to see for yourself!

The Burnaby ReStore and Vancouver ReStore are owned and operated by Habitat for Humanity Greater Vancouver. ReStores sell a wide variety of donated new and used building supplies to the public at greatly reduced prices. We receive new items every day so it pays to visit often. These items have been generously donated by homeowners, contractors, retailers and manufacturers in your community. Learn more about making a donation.

Most of the material we receive was destined to be thrown away. By shopping at the ReStores you’re helping to divert hundreds of tonnes of material out of our landfill each year while helping to raise funds for a great cause. ReStores are committed to sustainability and maintain active metal and cardboard recycling programs in each store.

Money raised from the sale of items fund local Habitat for Humanity operations and builds. By funding our operating cost this way we can ensure that every dollar Habitat for Humanity Greater Vancouver fundraises goes directly towards the building of homes for families in need.

ReStores are staffed primarily by a group of hardworking and committed volunteers who help with everything from cashiering to carpentry, product assembly and customer service. To learn more about volunteer opportunities at the ReStore visit our Volunteer page.
