Thrift storeGoodwill is a thrift store in Mountain View, CA. You’ll find it at 855 East El Camino Real, Mountain View, CA 94040. It’s one of 2 secondhand and resale shops we track in Mountain View.
The store keeps hours seven days a week, including Sunday, staying open as late as 9 PM on its longest days. Thrift hours change seasonally and around holidays, so a quick call before a long drive is worth it.
