The Habitat ReStore
Habitat for Humanity of Sangamon County’s ReStore is the place to shop for new and used home goods and building materials at affordable prices! Some items available for purchase - small & large appliances (new & used), furniture, antiques, flooring, home décor, cabinets, outdoor tools (lawnmowers, snowblowers, trimmers, etc.), windows and doors, bathroom & kitchen fixtures, tables and chairs.
The ReStore also accepts donations, subject to customer demand, from contractors, suppliers, individuals and organizations. All items for acceptance are subject to ReStore staff discretion.
The ReStore then sells these goods to the general public to help fund the construction of new Habitat houses within the local community. The ReStore performs a valuable community service by diverting large amounts of reusable materials from landfills and providing these products to the public at affordable prices.

If you like pallets, projects and being creative join us in the ReStore. Adult volunteers, 18 years and older, not only have fun, but are improving Sangamon County by helping Habitat For Humanity end poverty housing. Whether you paint, build or something in between, there’s always a new project to work on and plenty of ideas to share. Space is limited - closed-toe shoes and advanced registration are required.
