Thrift Store



Bend's Community Thriftstore (BCT) is located at
184 NE Franklin Avenue and it provides several important
benefits to the community.



  1. It's a great place to find affordable items - clothing, houseware (dishes, linens, etc.), furniture, appliances, sporting goods, books, records and children's items. With close to 7,000 sq ft of showroom space, it's the largest thriftstore in town.

  2. The BCC thriftstore is the primary location for our job training program - providing valuable work experience and skills development for over 25 people in a wide range of activities (e.g. customer service, learning how to operate the cash register and credit card machine, sorting, repairing and displaying thriftstore items, ebay sales, etc.) There is a computer training center upstairs and and a bike repair shop in the back!

  3. Through a voucher program, the BCC thriftstore provides free clothing and other basic amenities to clients of many social service agencies including churches and FAN (Family Access Network).

  4. Proceeds from the thriftstore go to support Feed the Hungry and other BCC programs.


Hours Open to the public:
Monday - Saturday from 10:00 am - 5:30 pm
Sunday from 11:00 am - 4:00 pm

Donations are gladly accepted:
We need gently used clothing, books, household items and furniture. Higher end items are also gladly welcomed as we can sell them on ebay.

Please call (541) 312-2069 if you have any questions.
