What Are Goodwill Bins?
Goodwill Bins are Goodwill Outlet stores where merchandise is placed in large rolling bins instead of being displayed like it is in a regular thrift store. Many items are sold by weight, while certain categories may be priced individually. Inventory, rates, and store rules vary among regional Goodwill organizations.
Are Goodwill Bins the Same as Goodwill Outlets?
Yes. “Goodwill Bins” is the common name shoppers use for Goodwill Outlet stores. They are different from independent liquidation bin stores, which usually sell retailer returns and overstock using a daily markdown model. See our Goodwill Outlet vs. bin store comparison for a detailed breakdown.
