The Habitat Store


    GreenMatters is a two-year series of workshops
    designed to help educate and inform the public on a
    variety of green building and design principles.  All
    workshops are free and open to the public.




The Habitat Store supports Habitat for Humanity of Greater Charlottesville by selling new and salvaged building materials and home furnishings to the public at discount prices.

All proceeds from the Habitat Store contribute to the construction of new Habitat homes locally.

The Habitat Store participates in Habitat for Humanity International’s overall environmental initiative by diverting usable materials from the waste stream while promoting the responsible stewardship of natural resources.

About Us

The Habitat Store, a retail sales store, was established in May of 2003 to provide a self-sustaining funding source to HFHGC. We also seek to extend Habitat's mission by making home maintenance more affordable. A secondary, yet significant, benefit of the store is the recycling and reuse of surplus new and used building materials, thereby reducing the flow of materials in the waste stream.

Four full-time employees and a team of dedicated volunteers contribute to the daily operations of the store. Our hours of operation are Tuesday through Friday from 10:00am-6:00pm and Saturday from 9:00am-5:00pm. We are closed Sunday and Monday!

We accept donations of new and used residential building materials, as well as some types of wood furniture, to be resold to the general public at discount prices. We receive donations on a daily basis and our store inventory is constantly changing. All donations are tax-deductible to the fullest extent of the law. Whether you are a general contractor, do-it-yourselfer, antique lover, or artist—you will find items to suit your style and budget.

Please come visit the Habitat Store and see what all the excitement is about. Help us divert valuable materials away from the landfill and back into the local community, while also helping to build more affordable housing in the Greater Charlottesville area.
