A Second Life for Household Items
Your Habitat ReStore is dedicated to being the donation center of choice for many new and gently used products deserving a second useful life rather than contributing to the local landfill.
The Habitat ReStore in Carver provides direct support for Habitat for Humanity of Greater Plymouth, with all proceeds benefiting HFHGP in our work to reduce substandard housing locally. Sales of your donated items help us partner with local families to build, rehabilitate and repair homes right here in our region.
If your household items have good life left in them, your satisfaction rewards from donating them will triple!
- Help local families by supporting affordable home construction
- Help the environment by keeping perfectly good items from ending up in the landfill
- All donations are tax-deductible
And, we offer free pick-ups! See below for more details

Cabinet Removal Program
Are you planning to remodel your kitchen or bathroom? We have a perfect way for you to donate your quality cabinets to Habitat and keep them from being broken up and tossed in a dumpster! Our trained and experienced team of volunteers, led by our staff member with extensive experience in cabinetry, will come to your home and remove them from the walls/floor and transport them to the ReStore -- all at no cost to you! It's stomach-turning to see perfectly good cabinets sledge-hammered to pieces and thrown away when a homeowner wants to freshen up their space -- now you can donate them to HFHGP to be re-sold at deep discount at the ReStore. As always, proceeds all support our mission of building affordable homes. It's a win-win!

We Offer Free Pick-Ups!
We pick up all of the items on our accepted items list. However, we reserve the truck for pickups that meet the following requirements:
- You have a large quantity of items; or
- The items are large and require a truck to move; and
- You are able to have your donation located in a garage or on the first floor on day of pick up
Due to the cost of transportation, the staff required, and our goal of being diligent in how we use our resources to raise funds to support Habitat’s building projects, we must limit our donation pickups to items that meet these criteria.
Please email photos of the items you would like to donate - this will help expedite the process. You can send photos to ReStore@hfhplymouth.org, please include in your email your name, address and contact phone number.
Our ReStore Manager or on-site Donation Ambassador reserves the right to decline any donation that might be unsuitable for the ReStore or may pose a safety risk to our donation pick up team. Important: Please call us prior to dropping your donation at the ReStore to ensure that we can accept your offer. An e-mail to ReStore@hfhplymouth.org with your name, address and phone number, description of the items, and photos will expedite our response. All donations to be picked up must be easily accessible to the Donation Ambassador(s). We reserve the right to accept the offered donation in whole or in part and we may selectively accept an assorted offer, leaving that which is not considered usable in the offered condition or does not fit the store’s sales criteria.
To submit donation details, please complete and submit a ReStore Contact Form, or email pictures and your contact info to ReStore@hfhplymouth.org. For questions, please call 508-866-4199.
