Goodwill Industries of Upstate/Midlands South Carolina (GIUMSC) has announced the temporary closure of its retail location at 412 Sulphur Springs Road in Greenville, SC on November 23, 2024. The closure will allow for a comprehensive renovation, transforming the site into the new Upstate Clearance Center, expected to open in mid-December.

The change is part of a broader reorganization within Goodwill’s Upstate retail operations. The current Upstate Clearance Center, located on Haywood Road, will move to the newly renovated Sulphur Springs location. This transition makes room for a fresh retail experience at Goodwill’s Upstate administrative offices on Haywood Road, further enhancing the organization’s mission to provide life-changing career services fueled by a quality, fun thrift shopping experience.

To celebrate the final week of operation at Sulphur Springs, Goodwill is extending substantial discounts to customers as they shop for gently used goods. The Sulphur Springs location sales schedule is:

• November 17-19: 75% off all items
• November 20-21: All items priced at $.50
• November 22-23: All items priced at $.25

The final day of operation will be Saturday, November 23, 2024. When the newly remodeled Clearance Center opens in December, the hours will be 9am – 8pm, Monday-Saturday and 10am - 7pm, Sunday.

“Relocating our Upstate Clearance Center is the first step in our plan to deliver more unique, exciting thrift shopping experiences in the Upstate,” said Pat Michaels, President and CEO of GIUMSC. “Over the past two years, we have broadened the type of thrift journeys we give shoppers, to include three boutiques and even a bookstore. Moving our Clearance Center to Sulphur Springs will not only provide our customers with increased space for shopping, but offers Goodwill the opportunity to continue to meet the community’s needs and help our participants improve their lives.”

GIUMSC thanks its loyal shoppers and donors for their ongoing support and looks forward to welcoming them at the new Clearance Center in December. For more updates, visit goodwillsc.org or follow GIUMSC on social media.
