Great home finds at great prices 🩷 I can understand how the hours may seem frustrating to some people but please check their Facebook and website instead of relying on Google. They always post it there! And also previews of what they will have which is helpful. This place has become a staple in decorating my home 🙂

They are excellent. Babe, Terry, and Quinn were here earlier than scheduled. The crew was professional, courteous and friendly. Babe took great care in explaining the process and coordinating the work. They were very careful in moving the inventory. They also were very expedtious, only took three hours from start to finish. We strongly recommend their services if you need to Empty the Nest. Bob and Diane

My family will forever be grateful to Kalynne, Cory and the whole team at Empty the Nest. They were caring and professional every step of the way. Their clean out service was done exceptionally well and we are grateful!

A great spot with a reduce-reuse-recycle cause I can fully support. We visited on a whim browsing for armchairs and instead found a dining table we loved. Staff were accommodating of our request to purchase the table without the set of chairs (we were happy to pay the price of the set for the table only), and putting it on hold for later pickup was easy. The movers were so helpful getting it loaded in our vehicle with care. Friendly, positive service, unique finds, and a great mission. Highly recommend and look forward to returning.

I absolutely LOVE this place!! The staff is always so nice and you can tell they love the place and what they do. They work hard to bring new treasures to the store each week and post them online which I love because I can scope out some vintage/collector items to purchase, furniture to buy and also furniture you can turn into your next DIY project all for an unbeatable price! All the cool finds go fast! They are constantly bringing in new items. Highly recommend a visit to this store!

Long time lover of this store. They always have the most unique finds for great prices! Last visit I got to meet the owners Hope & Joe. They are such kind people they stopped and talked to me and Hope helped me find what I needed! The lady working at the check out I cannot remember her name but she was wonderful as well! I cannot wait to book another reservation to visit soon.

I am so thrilled by this place! My friend and I didn’t know we needed to make an appointment but they were extremely accommodating and let us shop the store regardless. I found so many treasures that my arms hurt from carrying all of them. Amazing prices and the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. This is such a great thrift store and I will definitely be returning.

This place is the coolest. It's a bunch of estate sale stuff in one place. I love searching here. Sometimes i have to put things on hold I find so many things, other times I leave with nothing. I highly recommend empty the nest.
