Find home improvement products, furniture, appliances and special treasures at the HabiStore, a special resale store that benefits Habitat for Humanity Tucson!
Did you know that about 80% of what Americans throw away is recyclable, yet our recycling rate is only 28%?
Before you toss out that sofa, appliance or porch light, give Habitat for Humanity’s HabiStore a call. Your unwanted item may be just what someone else is looking for and, by donating it, you benefit as well.
Items are sold at below cost prices and you never know what you might find! A stroll through the store may uncover cabinets, appliances, couches, hardware, paint supplies, toilets, housewares, tables, framed pictures, bed frames, bookcases….maybe even a popcorn machine or old stereo. The inventory changes every day. Staff and volunteers can also offer ideas about re-purposing an item in ways you never imagined.

Don’t let the construction on Grant Road discourage you from stopping by – it is not impacting access and there is plenty of parking.
The HabiStore is located on the south side of the street.

The HabiStore is also the site for the Green Living Fair every fall. The public is invited to come and see the latest in green vehicles, meet local vendors selling solar bikes, lighting and panels, learn how to make compost, recycle water and grow organic fruits and vegetables. Mrs. Green is always on hand to offer advice and give away items that make life more green (and fun!). Click here to see photos from the 2012 event.
