The Scrap Exchange is a treasured Durham institution touted as the largest creative reuse center in the country where you can find odds an ends, craft materials, building supplies and so much more. Its sister store across the street within the Lakewood Shopping Center is an equally impressive shop filled with clothing, housewares and accessories.

Bathroom is better here! No odors! A lot of variety here for everyone from kitchen stuff, bedding, bathroom decor, clothing, light fixtures, picture frames, wall art, shoes, chairs and much more.

Lots of books to choose from. The book selection was the better area since the music wasn’t blasting back there. The music was absurdly loud, and not very good music either.

Huge thrift store with a variety of items. The books section alone is worth the visit, and they are organized by genre so it’s easy to browse through. They have a clean bathroom and weren’t too busy when I went. Definitely my favorite thrift store in Durham.

A good thrifting spot! I’m sure the selections change frequently, but I scored some great finds during my recent visit (mirror, plates, books, clothes). Pricing is pretty good on most inventory; some items are a bit overpriced for condition/value. The team are very nice and friendly. Bonus points for the shopping soundtrack (Ethiopian jazz, Hermanos Gutiérrez, and other chill music)! I will definitely return!

Can easily spend hours looking through all the stock, which is for everyone's wardrobe, hobbies, or decorations. Staff were friendly and the only thing was the noise & music which frankly are par for the course in these spots. Will 100% return!

Would have had a good dinner with my lady friend. But Alpaca messed up our orders but we ended up sharing, I gave my dinner to her, instead, I ended up with a wing?? I always give and get screwed, but my Jesus Christ will make the sinning people pay for every sin by giving the plagues from the Holy Bible on them at my word by God's word itself...Prophisied all my life, and only one friend in this world. Then she went home...
