Salvage Secondhand Shoppe — Local services in Denton

I’ve been going to Salvage for a few years now—sometimes to shop, sometimes just to stop by for a chat. The owner is not only incredibly cool but has become one of my closest friends. Every visit is such a vibe: I’m browsing around, enjoying the music, and just genuinely having a great time.

She’s one of the hardest-working people I know, and I’ve seen firsthand all the effort she puts in behind the scenes. She has such an amazing eye for unique finds and a real talent for curating creative events. I’ve had the chance to help out and attend a few, and they’ve always been a blast.

What I love most is that she never puts anyone down for their style—instead, she encourages and helps people find pieces that truly fit them.

I’ll definitely keep coming back to Salvage whenever I can, and I hope others appreciate it as much as I do. And keep in mind, there’s so much more going on behind the scenes to make your experience special every...

Definitely check Salvage out! There's usually a curated rack up front too that's specific to whatever season or holiday is going on and I often love...

Visited and waited 5–7 minutes at the counter to buy stickers. The employee (long hair, hat,) was distracted talking to a tarot reader. Turns out that was the owners husband. He made eye contact with me waiting at the register more than twice. Service was delayed and inattentive. Prompt checkout would improve the experience.

Edit to add: The owner (only employee) saw us walk right past her into the store with no greeting and continued speaking with someone outside the entire time I was inside. You never once glanced at the counter to notice me waiting to be rung up. When customers are present, checking in periodically is essential—regardless...
