It is our intention to remain closed until Fort Belvoir goes to HPCON ALPHA.
We will not be accepting donations until we re-open. Please do NOT leave items anywhere on the property.
We understand that this is a difficult time for all of us and appreciate your understanding and cooperation.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The re-opening of the Belvoir Thrift shop is condition dependent. There is no set date. We appreciate your continued interest and support. Any information that we have to share will be posted here. This year is our 70th year of operation on Fort Belvoir and we continue to be "Proud to serve those who serve our country"!
NO DONATIONS UNTIL WE RE-OPEN.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Moving forward, the Thrift Shop has some changes that we are going to need to implement when we re-open (and we currently have no idea when that will be).
WE WILL NO LONGER BE TAKING CONSIGNMENTS
- we are going to be a donation only facility. There are many factors that we have taken into consideration prior to making this decision. It is the fiscally responsible thing for our organization and the timing was thrust on us by the pandemic. The consignment area will no longer be open to the public. We will have to turn that into a second sorting room to be able to social distance our employees. This is a permanent change. We have been discussing doing this for years and now is an opportune time. In addition, our operating hours will change: 10 AM – 2:30 PM Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday as well as the first and third Saturday of each month.
From the day we re-open, you will have 2 weeks to withdraw (without paying a withdrawal fee) anything that expired March 17 or later. Anything that expired prior to March 17th is already ours. Anything left at the shop after the two weeks is up is ours.
Exceptional circumstances have dictated that we implement exceptional measures to cope. We ask for your cooperation and understanding.
