rinity United Methodist Church Thrift Shop has
long been a presence on Main Street,
Hackettstown, but when Maureen Storey was hired
as director she brought some welcome changes.
Some 41 years ago, Trinity had a rummage sale and
had lots of things left over, so someone got the idea to start
a thrift shop. At first in the basement of one of the churchs
buildings and only open a few hours a week, the shop is
now in a bright store front next to the church offices.
When Storey arrived in July 2013, she determined a
few changes had to be made. First, all items had to be
priced. Second the thrift shop smell had to go. Moving
items around opened up the space, so it is now a bright little shop.
Trinity gets so many donations a stable of volunteers
could work around the clock to sort them. Items not
deemed good enough to sell at the shop are donated to a
secondary sorter that ships clothing to the needy based on
climate. Bedding and towels that wont sell go to Eleventh
Hour rescue and other animal protection groups.
Storey and the volunteers have a good idea what will
stay on the racks forever, Anything with shoulder pads is
out, she said.
We dont take some electronics, Storey said indicating with her hands giant CRT television sets. Other items,
if they dont work, are donated to the workshop at
Abilities to be repaired if possible. Books that dont sell
are donated to an on-line bookseller who returns a percentage to the thrift shop. Certain metal items are recycled.
We cant take baby items here, they are too big and we
cant sanitize them, she said, adding federal guidelines
rapidly change so the shop would have to keep up with
recalls, but they do work with pregnancy centers.
An affiliation with Haiti includes sending items that
can be repaired and resold. Yarn donated to the shop is
given to the Prayer Shawl ministry. Shawls are given to
people who need prayers. Occasionally they get a call
from the battered womens shelter and provide items
needed by the women who end up there.
Sometimes people donate items good enough to sell on
eBay, including gold, diamonds, fur coats and vintage
clothing and linens.
We get collectable dolls, good china, she said. Now
we have limited edition Wedgewood. We get vintage hats
and luggage, those always sell.
