Save the Children Op Shop - Toowoomba
About the Business
Welcome to the Save the Children Op Shop in Toowoomba! Located on Ruthven Street, our op shop offers more than just retail therapy. As one of Save the Children's many op shops across Australia, we provide a unique shopping experience while making a difference in the lives of children both in Australia and overseas.
When you visit our op shop, you'll discover a wide range of recycled fashion pieces, toys, books, and even some vintage and modern day gems. Whether you're looking for a stylish outfit, a special gift, or a good read, our op shop has you covered. And the best part is, every purchase you make helps create better lives for children in need.
Our op shops are run by friendly volunteers who add to the warm and welcoming atmosphere. They are passionate about making a difference and are always ready to assist you in finding that perfect item. We couldn't operate without their dedication and support.
At Save the Children, we believe in sustainability and giving items a second chance. Through our partnership with SCRgroup, we ensure that even items that don't sell in our op shops have the opportunity for a new life. Clothing, handbags, manchester, and soft furnishings that can't be sold are either taken overseas to be re-homed or recycled into rags or biofuel. This way, we minimize waste and maximize impact.
Please note that we are unable to accept mattresses at our op shop. However, we appreciate all other donations and rely on them to keep our store stocked with amazing finds.
As our op shops rely on volunteers, our opening hours may change at short notice depending on their availability. We appreciate your understanding and encourage you to stay updated on our operating hours through our website or social media channels.
By shopping at the Save the Children Op Shop in Toowoomba, you are not only finding unique treasures but also joining us in creating a world where every child has a safe and happy childhood. Your support truly makes a difference.

"Nasty nasty woman works here. Abused two young ladies who came to shop, they entered the store and tried on items, and was screamed at by a short elderly woman working in store that came out from storage. The women were not wearing masks and the lady working came out and verbally attacked these two women about not wearing masks. Did not ask them if they were exempt, just screamed at them, both women stated they were infact exempt and did not feel comfortable divulging their medical information with such a hostile person. Both women were fully prepared to spend alot of money as they placed many items at the front counter. How is it they were allowed to enter, shop around for some time, be preparing to pay, and then it's deemed unethical they are unmasked??? For the record I was wearing a mask and I found this behaviour totally unacceptable. You won't be receiving my money aswell you rude little person, how dare you take the law into your own hands. The mandate is now lifted anyway you actual fool."
"One of the best op shops I've ever been to! Huge selection - everything is ordered by style, size AND colour - so it's super easy to navigate. Prices are amazing as well - $12 for three ladies tops. They also had a great designer & homewares section. Will definitely be back :)"
"Expansive, well set up store. Excellent bargains that change (e.g. $2 ladies pants or jeans). Plenty of designer items of clothing."
"My first visit to this store today. There is a huge range of Clothing at reasonable prices. The staff were amazing and super helpful. I was shopping with a toddler and they helped to entertain him so I could shop. After a poor experience at a different op shop last week - this was appreciated immensely! A little kindness can have a huge impact on someone's day. Thank you again!"
"Nice and clean. Clothes on racks in sizes and colour blocked. Prices are fair on most items."
