Goodwill Hamilton donation drop-off & used bookstore to open in April

[Ciel]

Spec article indicated that store will be located at Upper Paradise & Stonechurch Rd. I'm assuming it will be in the plaza where the Rexall and No Frills stores are.

Good to know of the opening as locals using the clothing donation boxes in Ancaster also seem to be dropping off non-clothing items each week.

New article mentions the Upper Paradise store and possibly one in Ancaster. The last one in Ancaster closed 1-1/2yr ago-maybe the new location will be in the Meadowlands (more buses/people/cars) rather than on Wilson St. W. (not as much of the three).

Walked down Upper Paradise Rd today. There are no empty storefronts at 930 Upper Paradise (the one with Rexall and No Frills). But across the way, the other plaza at 919 has a tiny empty storefront between the denture clinic and Sol'Exotica. 15min parking lot signage, fyi. There's an M&M Meat Shoppe there too. I'm betting that the shop opens in the smaller plaza.

OK, I stand corrected-the store is at 930 Upper Paradise! I saw lime green paint being applied last Friday.
Two doors away from the Rexall (newly renovated) in the former fitness training storefront. Today, the job postings for the store are online:

Excellent HSR bus routes are in the area: 34-Upper Paradise and 43-Stonechurch. You can also take the 44-Rymal bus and walk north or transfer to the Upper Paradise bus.
