Welcome to Morgan Memorial Goodwill Industry’s May Insider’s Tips blog. We’ve renovated stores, expanded retail hours, and grown social media – just in time for the warm weather refresh season! With new gently used items appearing on our racks daily across our 14 retail stores – every day is a great day to shop at Goodwill. Scroll on for details.
Have You Missed Our Goodwill Outlet Store?
We’re beyond happy to announce our outlet at 1010 Harrison Avenue has reopened. Located inside our distribution center, these 3,000 square feet of bin madness are ready for all pickers. Whether you’re searching for a great deal on kids’ winter layers or are an artist envisioning multi-media creations, there’s no doubt it’s going to be a satisfying adventure.
By the way, we’d like to say thank you for your patience. The Harrison location is our only outlet store and it was closed for some time, but now it’s back better than ever. Open Monday – Saturday. Closed on Sunday.

Did you know every Goodwill store offers great finds?
Don’t overlook your neighborhood Goodwill for amazing clothes, home goods, and electronics. Across our 14 stores, every shopper has access to all the branded and exclusive products shared with us by our wonderful supporters.
How do we do it? We start by mixing the donations. Nearly all of our donated items are redistributed to centralized locations where our Goodwill employees and paid trainees prepare the goods for sale at our stores. They are then racked and shipped to our 14 retail stores, five days a week.
Sundays are Goodwill fun-days!
This Sunday enjoy spring at your local Goodwill. We’ve expanded store hours to include Sundays from noon to 6 p.m. for most of our locations.

Donate your clothes while visiting a local municipal recycling center.
Here’s a little-known fact. In addition to our attended donation sites, Goodwill enthusiasts may also drop off clothes and textiles while unloading recycling at their local recycling center. Participating towns include: Hanover, Hingham, Medfield, Southborough, Wellesley, Weston. Resident sticker required. Contact municipality for hours of operation. Please leave only clothes and textiles, though — other items not accepted by Goodwill at these locations.
Your donations make a difference.
At Goodwill we respect your generosity by being excellent stewards of your donations. Last year more than 88% of every Goodwill dollar went to programs that transform the lives of our participants. Through our retail stores and on-site training programs, we provide education, employment training, and job opportunities for individuals with barriers to self-sufficiency.
