What is ReStore?
The Iowa City ReStore is a 10,000-square-foot treasure chest filled with new and gently used building materials and home goods. Anyone, regardless of income, can purchase materials (anything from paint and nails to cabinets, appliances, and furniture) at affordable prices. Maybe someone else has donated just what you need to complete the project you’re working on now. All you need to do is come in and look around. With this service, our community benefits in several ways. One, ReStore’s proceeds support Iowa Valley Habitat for Humanity. Two, with a little carpentry skill, everyone can have a home or business to admire. And three, our services divert reusable household items and building materials from our local landfills. See our latest additions, special sales, and sneak peeks of our inventory on our Facebook page. |

Donate to ReStore
Remodeling, cleaning, down-sizing, or just getting organized? Whatever your project, don't let the items you no longer need end up in the landfill. Donations to the Iowa City ReStore are tax-deductible, and 100% of the proceeds support Iowa Valley Habitat for Humanity's mission. The Iowa City ReStore staff and volunteers make the donation process as simple as possible. If your item is not sellable or useable, it costs our small organization time and money. Be sure to review our donation list of items that we do and do not accept. Thank you! |
