The Salvation Army
Thrift store4.3(50 Google reviews)The Salvation Army is a thrift store in Hartford, CT. You’ll find it at 100 Nelson Street, Hartford, CT 06120. It’s one of 2 secondhand and resale shops we track in Hartford.
The store keeps hours 5 days a week and is closed on Sunday, staying open as late as 4 PM on its longest days. Thrift hours change seasonally and around holidays, so a quick call before a long drive is worth it.
As a thrift store, its inventory is donated and priced for fast turnover: stock changes daily, sizes and styles are unpredictable, and the best finds go to shoppers who come back often rather than those who come once.
