Society of St. Vincent de Paul Thrift Store - Lemay Ferry — Local services in Mehlville

Absolutely done with this place. The last FOUR times I have donated or attempted to donate there has been an issue. The first time they were so incredibly rude to my husband that he came home infuriated, he hasn't shopped there since. Then I tried to donate again, THEY dropped the very nice night stand that I donated and then tried to put it back in my car. When I said I'm not taking it, they then said "you can find a dumpster to throw it in..." I said no YOU can find a dumpster to throw it in, YOU destroyed a beautiful night stand then they rolled their eyes at me. The rudeness is INSANE. I take time out of my day to nicely box donations to donate and they just dump it out. I can hear glass breaking. It's wasteful and the attitudes are disgusting. The most recent time which finally led me to making this post was the rudeness I was just shown. A lady shaking her head 'no' at me while pulling up and telling me that she has too much to clean up to receive a donation. Time before that when I was shopping I had to track down an employee to check us out. There was a line of about 10 people just standing there for over 7 minutes .. absolutely no one on the floor. I called the store, knocked on the office, I finally had to walk into the back sorting area to find an employee where SHE ended up being rude. There were multiple senior citizens standing there holding their items waiting. Lucky we didn't just all walk out with our items. I have supported this store for YEARS and YEARS and I will not be going back. The attitudes are ridiculous, you don't want us to shop or donate there,...

Terrible experience donating at the Lemay location. Went around to the back and noticed an employee, I asked if this was the donation area. She seemed disgruntled but said yes, my husband got an end table out of our car and went to set it down. She barked at him to place it in the dock where a truck was parked. Rude, but since she looked older and weak we thought ok and did that for her. We went to leave and she then she started griping about our donation . She was opening and closing the drawer on the piece saying it wouldn’t come out?? We told her the drawer does not fully come out. That it’s not a defect. It’s a nice table we just did not have the room for it, nothing is broken or wrong with it. She told us to take it back. We were very confused at her anger and attitude. I offered to place it in the dumpster if she really thought our donation was trash. She said no and told us to take it back. After we lifted it onto the dock for her. We left the table there. I have been donating and shopping at this store for years but until this judgmental employee is gone I will...
