About This Store
Shopping at Austin Goodwill Stores
Goodwill Central Texas – Outlet South is one of the standout Austin Goodwill Stores where secondhand shopping turns into a rewarding experience. Located in Austin, this Goodwill outlet goes beyond the usual thrift store setup. It’s part of the well-known Goodwill chain recognized nationwide for supporting community programs through resale, so every purchase here feels like a small win for a good cause. If you’re into thrift shopping, you’ll appreciate the variety and volume of items they bring in daily.
At this outlet, you can expect to find a broad range of used clothing that covers everything from casual wear to some vintage pieces scattered throughout the racks. But it’s not just about clothes. The store has a diverse selection of furniture, housewares, and electronics that often appeal to bargain hunters looking to furnish or decorate on a budget. Books, toys, and seasonal items also show up regularly, giving plenty of options for anyone wanting to explore beyond the standard thrift store fare.
One of the perks of shopping at this Austin Goodwill Stores location is the outlet format itself. Instead of pre-priced items, many are sold by the pound, which can make digging through the bins feel more like a treasure hunt than a typical shopping trip. For those who enjoy the thrill of sorting through piles of goods, this method offers an incentive to sift through more, often leading to better finds and lower prices. It’s a different vibe from a typical retail thrift shop but one that truly embraces the spirit of secondhand shopping in Austin.

It was crazy in there, but it was fun to watch everybody. We did get some good deals. I suggest wearing latex gloves. Lots of interesting items. You do have to search through bins.

They sometimes have really great stuff. Sad thing there is no regulations, people run and don't give you personal space, hovering over you to dig right where you are. Management should really enforce no running unless they want a lawsuit if someone falls. Overall, the customers here are not the best, they are here from morning to night. They bring their kids and its so overstimulating when they are running around or crying. I know this is a source of income for some people but there is no courtesy.

Whoever had the bright idea to start pulling merchandise off the floor 30-40 mins BEFORE closing should be demoted or fired. You’ve cut your hours back which makes it harder for people to come in before or after work and raised the prices to compensate for that 2 hr loss. That’s understandable but pulling stock off the floor too is unacceptable. What other stores pull 1/2 their inventory off the floor BEFORE closing time?? Maybe a high end jewelry store or a place that sells Burken, Gucci or Louis V handbags but Goodwill you are none of those places.

Love this place I go several times a week. However this review is to voice my hatred of the new hours. 7pm is simply too early to close. I’ve been frequenting this spot for 10years and I miss the good old days of being able to peruse until 9:45pm. I love it, I just wish it was open later.

Dear Goodwill Management, I am writing to share my recent experience at the Goodwill Outlet in Austin, Texas, which stands in stark contrast to the positive encounters I have had at other Goodwill locations across North and South Carolina, as well as Florida. My visit to the Austin outlet initially seemed promising, given the abundant selection and the quality items I found. Unfortunately, my experience was marred by the behavior of the staff on duty that day. The employees exhibited an alarming level of discourtesy and aggression towards customers, which included yelling, and in my case, an unwarranted invasion of privacy. While I was taking a moment to rest, I noticed employees surreptitiously observing me from over my shoulder, scrutinizing the content I was viewing on my phone. They then confronted me in a highly aggressive manner, insisting I delete a photo I had taken. They remained by my side until I complied with their demand. Although I adhered to their instructions, the photo had already been backed up to my cloud storage, rendering their abrasive approach unnecessary. I understand the importance of adhering to store policies, including those regarding photography and videography. However, I firmly believe that a simple, kindly delivered reminder of such policies would have been sufficient and far more appropriate. The use of rude and aggressive tactics was unwarranted and detracted significantly from my shopping experience. I hope this feedback is received in the spirit of constructive criticism, with the aim of improving the customer service provided at your outlets. It is my belief that fostering an environment of respect and courtesy will greatly enhance the shopping experience for all Goodwill patrons. I will add that we went to the North outlet the next day & the employees there were extremely nice & chill unlike the multiple staff at this location.
