What is a ReStore?

ReStores are retail outlets that accept donations of new and used building materials and home fixtures to sell at 50-75% off retail price. More than 500 HFH affiliates across the U.S. & Canada have established ReStores. They have gross incomes ranging from $30,000-$3.5 million as well as diverting 5,700 tons from going into landfills each year. HFHI's Environmental Initiative cites the statistic that for every million persons in a metropolitan area, more than 250 houses worth of usable building material is thrown away each month by home builders. This waste constitutes far more houses thrown away than HFH actually builds worldwide.
