Habitat ReStore

Our ReStore opened on April 25th to a crowd of Habitat supporters.  Thanks to everyone who made the day a success!  We look forward to serving our community for many years to come.

The Williamsport Habitat ReStore is the eighth Habitat ReStore in Pennsylvania

Working in partnership with Greater Lycoming Habitat for Humanity, the Habitat ReStore provides a valuable source of cash flow through the sales of donated building materials                

The Habitat ReStore is located in Williamsport at 540 Lycoming Street at the former site of the R. J. Ertel Company.

Our goals are to:

• Generate cash flow to support Habitat’s home
                building program.

• Keep valuable materials out of our local landfills

• Provide the community with a source of low-cost
                building materials.

• Provide an opportunity to volunteer at the Habitat
                ReStore.

 
Here’s how it works:

The Habitat ReStore accepts donations of new and saleable, used building materials.  These materials are sold to the public at 50-75% off the retail price.  There are over 500 Habitat ReStores in the United States and Canada.  

The Habitat ReStore:

• Makes home improvements more affordable.

• Helps Habitat build more homes for families in the community.

• Prevents usable building materials from going to the landfill.  The Habitat ReStore will divert aproximately 80 tons of materials from the landfill in its first full year of operation.
