Goodwill Return Policy

Last verified: January 15, 2026

★★★2.7/5(50 shopper ratings)

Goodwill's return policy varies significantly by location since each chapter is independently operated. Most locations accept returns of clothing and electronics only within 7 days of purchase, with receipt and original tags attached. Store credit or exchange is typically offered — cash refunds are rare. Furniture, housewares, and most other items are all-sales-final. Always check your local Goodwill's policy.
