• Donate to make an impact

The Weaverville ReStore has reopened for our regular business hours:

Tuesday through Saturday

10:00 AM – 6:00 PM

Our Administrative Office and the Asheville ReStore remain closed until further notice.

Donate to the ReStore

Thanks to generous support from our community, Asheville Habitat boasts one of the highest ranked Habitat ReStores in the country (out of nearly 900 stores).

This is a testament to the residents of Buncombe County who value local non-profits, re-using materials, and supporting a store where they can find the best deals around! When you donate to Asheville Habitat’s ReStores (in Asheville and Weaverville), you help generate funding for Habitat’s building and repair programs while keeping usable goods out of the landfill. 

How to Donate

We will gladly pick up donated items anywhere in Buncombe County. Pick-up service is available Monday through Saturday. To schedule a pick up, call 828-254-6706 to make arrangements.

Or, drop your items off at the ReStores during normal business hours:

Asheville: 31 Meadow Road, Tuesday – Saturday from 9am to 6pm
Weaverville: 61 Weaver Blvd, Tuesday – Saturday from 10am to 6pm

If you are a business and have excess inventory, clearance, or bulk items you’d like to donate, please email or call 828-254-6706.

Because of the high cost of disposal, as of May 25, 2021, the Asheville and Weaverville ReStores are no longer accepting TV donations of any kind. Thank you for understanding.
