The ReBuilding Center, Building materials store in North Portland, United States.
The ReBuilding Center is a shop in North Portland that sells reclaimed building materials salvaged from demolished or renovated buildings. The shelves hold doors, windows, bricks, flooring, fixtures, and other components taken from local construction projects.
The shop was founded by the organization Our United Villages to reduce material waste and make local building practices more sustainable. Since its opening, it has helped keep construction components out of landfills by finding them new owners and uses.
The center functions as an educational hub where community members learn about construction techniques, repairs, and the environmental impact of building material choices.
The store occupies a large building with multiple rooms organizing different material types, so plan to spend time browsing the entire space. Parking is available nearby and staff can help you locate specific components or answer questions about what you find.
The inventory is restocked every Friday with donated materials from homeowners and construction companies, meaning you find something completely different on each visit. This constantly changing selection makes every trip feel like a treasure hunt with unexpected discoveries.
