Goodwill
Thrift storeGoodwill is a thrift store in New Orleans, LA. You’ll find it at 5770 Read Blvd., New Orleans, LA 70127. It’s one of 16 secondhand and resale shops we track in New Orleans.
The store keeps hours seven days a week, including Sunday, staying open as late as 8 PM on its longest days. Thrift hours change seasonally and around holidays, so a quick call before a long drive is worth it.

Before you go
- Ask at the register which tag color is on sale this week and which is newest — the sale racks are cheap, the newest racks are where fresh donations land.

- Bring a tape measure and your key measurements — sizes vary wildly across eras and brands.
- Sunday hours are on file (10 AM – 6 PM), so it fits a weekend circuit.
- Donating? Use the donation door during posted hours and ask for a receipt — see our Goodwill guide for what this chain accepts.
The bins
This is a Goodwill Outlet
Outlets are Goodwill’s last stop: donations that did not sell in the retail stores arrive here in large rolling bins, unsorted, and you pay by the pound rather than per item, typically $1 to $2 per pound for clothing at a rate set by this regional Goodwill. Bring gloves, wait behind the line while staff roll out fresh bins, and check items closely; everything is sold as-is.
How the bins work: pricing, rotations, rules, and every Goodwill Outlet by state →Donating at Goodwill
Most locations accept clothing, shoes, books and media, housewares, small working electronics, and small furniture at drive-up donation doors during posted hours. Most regions do not take mattresses, cribs and car seats, CRT televisions, chemicals, or large appliances.
