If you’re in Nogales and into thrift shopping, the Goodwill Outlet Store and Donation Center is a spot worth checking out. This Nogales thrift store is part of the larger Goodwill network, known nationwide for offering a steady stream of used clothing, household goods, and occasionally some vintage pieces. People often come here looking for affordable secondhand items, and it’s pretty easy to spend a good amount of time digging through the racks and shelves.
Goodwill stores have that familiar vibe where you can find everything from furniture to books, kitchen gadgets, and even décor items alongside bins of used clothing. The Nogales location doubles as a donation center, so the inventory can be a little unpredictable, but that’s part of the charm. One day you might find a mid-century lamp or a stack of classic novels, and another day there could be a fresh batch of jeans or jackets that are perfect for layering.
Shopping here feels different than your typical thrift store because it’s an outlet style, meaning prices often reflect the bulk buying nature of the store. It’s a place to really hunt through items, whether you’re after vintage finds or just practical used clothing and housewares. For locals and visitors who enjoy thrifting in Nogales, the Goodwill Outlet Store adds a solid option to explore beyond the usual spots. It’s casual, community-focused, and the kind of place that rewards patience and curiosity. Give it a look when you’re in town and want to sift through a variety of secondhand goods.

I enjoy shopping and looking for random stuff. The employees are friendly and the manager with the cool braids is nice and helpful.
I go to this store all the time. I'm looking for basic household stuff, as I recently moved into an apartment up the street. The problem lately has been with electronic devices. The customer can't plug them in to see if they power on, and you can't return them after buying them. Instead of spending twenty dollars on something that I need, I have to put it back on the table because it's not worth the risk. Other than that, I have gotten a lot of good things and saved a lot of money. So thanks.
It was not bad for the first experience at a Goodwill outlet store but I didn't enjoy looking through the plastic bins. The things I saw towards the top of the bins is what I looked at. I also was surprised that they were open. Their store hours were not correct on Google and I have since corrected them. They are open 7 days a week from 8 am to 4 pm. I ended up purchasing a couple of small items for my kids. It would be nice if the bins were at least labeled with the types of things inside them such as kid's clothes, toys, women's clothes or housewares, etc. so I can skip the unnecessary. I may go back to look when I have more time to spend.
This should be called the outlet to outlet stores. Bad selections... extremely bad selections... or no real selection aat all. But in all fairness, one must take the demographics in consideration to the very, very poor that flux from our border neighbor to the south. Those who are used to the stores in metropolitan cities this is not worth the visit.
Don't believe the pictures you've seen online. They depict a well-kept store with clothes tagged and neatly arranged on carousels. However, the reality is that everything is dumped into plastic troughs, and you're expected to dig through them to find what you want. Items are dirty and often broken. The store is badly understaffed... cashiers barely have time to breathe, let alone offer assistance. I've been to many a Goodwill in my time, and this is easily the sorriest of the bunch.
