Eco Thrift Hayward — Local services in Hayward

I recently had the pleasure of visiting this thrift store, and it was an amazing experience! From the moment I walked in, I was impressed by how clean, organized, and inviting the space was. Unlike some thrift stores where items are scattered or overwhelming, everything here was thoughtfully arranged, making it easy to browse and find exactly what I was looking for.

The selection of items was fantastic. Whether you’re on the hunt for clothing, home decor, furniture, or unique treasures, this place has something for everyone. I found some great name-brand clothing in excellent condition at unbeatable prices. The home goods section was also a highlight—so many stylish pieces that you’d pay a fortune for in a traditional store. I couldn’t resist picking up a beautiful vintage mirror and a cozy throw blanket that fits perfectly in my home.

One thing that stood out was the staff. They were friendly, helpful, and clearly passionate about creating a positive shopping experience. They took the time to answer my questions and even offered tips on finding hidden gems in the store. Their enthusiasm made the visit even more enjoyable.

What I loved most was the sense of community this thrift store fosters. Shopping here feels like more than just finding great deals—it feels like supporting something meaningful. Whether it’s giving items a second life or contributing to the store’s cause (if they have one), it’s a win-win.

If you’re a thrifting enthusiast or even just looking for a fun place to shop, I highly recommend checking this place out. You’ll walk out with unique finds, great deals, and the satisfaction of knowing you supported a wonderful local business. I can’t wait to...

Echo is a great place for the community! The prices are for the most part are good but sometimes things are over priced borderline rediculous. The staff is great and friendly but management seems to be a bit on edge when dealing with customers, i understand the stress when in a management position because i am in one as well, but c'mon, put on a smile and be more friendlier! I'm a regular here, coming in at least 3 times a week for retail therapy and give kudos to the employees for the great job they are doing on the floor, organizing, refolding,putting items back to correct places when in the wrong places and not leaving it a shambles! Hayward is not San Ramon and definitely isn't the wealthiest of communities, so I think it's a great store for Hayward's residents to come and find affordability especially during a pandemic that has taken away so many jobs! The only thing i think should change is the sometimes high prices on toys because when i see parents or grand parents try to buy one but tell their child they can't afford it (sometimes rightfully so) it saddens me. I also see the elderly who are on fixed incomes come in not being able to afford items so a senior discount on perhaps a certain day would be a helpful gesture to our aging community. The children and the elderly are our future leaders and the very people who brought them into our world so let's accomodate them a bit 🤗Good job Echo!!! Love your store and would be so sad if...

Another man's/woman's donation is another man's/woman's treasure. This thrift store is GIGANTIC and I'm not even playing! It is like the size of a Walmart!!Many thrift stores are fine with just having some couple rows and that's it. This place has about 20 plus aisles of clothing, electronics, shoes. While most of the men clothing I just eh, you'll find some good clothes here once in a while. The women's clothing is massive and you're always guaranteed to find something you love! The aisles are sorted by style and size and color so you don't have to spend extra time on a treasure hunt. Be aware that the dressing rooms have a six piece limit so when you go in here make sure you have plenty of time to try on the clothes. Make sure you try them on before 30 minutes before closing because that's when they close the fitting rooms. Behind the counter is where they have more expensive electronics which you will need help looking at. Don't freak out when you don't find the other shoe in a pair because they have the more expensive ones up front! The best part about all of this is that there are colored tags which specify how much more percent off you will get which comes to 25,50 or 75% depending on the tag. Make sure you take care of the clothes tag because if it is out, they will not sell it and put it out the next day! This is probably the best thrift store in the Bay Area that...
