Thrift Stores Closed Indefinitely
Per Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear’s order that all nonessential retail businesses are to close by 8 pm on March 23, all three St. Vincent de Paul Louisville Thrift Stores will be closed indefinitely. Additionally, drop-off donations will not be accepted. We ask that you do not drop off donations at our thrift stores as there will be no one to collect them.
If you have a donation pick up scheduled, Wanda will contact you with any updates.
Vehicle donations will still be accepted, but vehicle drop-offs are not permitted. As such, any donated vehicle dropped off at our offices will be towed at the owner’s expense. Once our staff is permitted to return to work, we will resume accepting drop off vehicle donations. Please call Wanda at (502) 589-7837 to arrange for pick up of your donated vehicle.
We apologize for the inconvenience, but the health and safety of our donors, customers, and staff is our top priority now. To stay up to date with our Thrift Stores and other programs at St. Vincent de Paul Louisville, sign up for The Good Samaritan newsletter.
Proceeds from sales at our thrift stores directly fund our mission at St. Vincent de Paul Louisville. Closing stores and postponing fundraising events will have a long-term impact on the services we provide and the health of our organization. Please consider supporting our mission with a donation today.
We hope to maximize the value of every donation. Please help us do that by following some general guidelines listed here.
Please be sure all items are clean and gently used. We must dispose of dirty, too-worn, non-working, or wet items. Please box or bag all items you are donating. Do not donate clothing on hangers. This minimizes damage while moving from one location to another. We will accept refrigerators and freezers that we can verify to be in working order and good condition. We cannot accept any items that require installation, plumbing, construction or assembly.
