    Found Riverside Lumber when I was continually getting frustrated shopping for ply goods at the big box stores. Lowe's and Home Depot are such a pain in terms of finding what you want and getting it cut. So Riverside Lumber is certainly off the beaten path for me. But All things considered, I save time going here. They have tons of options for both sheet goods and hardwoods. It's easy to find someone to help you and in fact, you probably wouldn't make it far without someone finding you to help. They have two different warehouses and then a little trailer (think double wide). The warehouses keep the wood and equipment. Once you make your selections, the guys in the warehouse will get you loaded up. Someone will give you a slip of paper with your order, and you take that to the trailer for payment. These guys sell lots of different hardwoods including exotics. If interested, check out their Instagram. Sales guy told me that post new cool arrivals on IG. For the plywood's I purchased, they cut the sheet in half for me. There is a surcharge for this. It was $5. It takes me like 20-25 minutes to get to Riverside Lumber, but I much prefer these guys over the big box stores. It can be a little intimidating at first, but just be reassured they sell to hobbyists. I'm a total beginner and was just buying 2 sheets of plywood. They were good to work with.

    This review reflects the boards members and the manager, Jasmine of The Green Project. On a…read moreSaturday of February 28, I visited The Green Project, a salvage store facility in New Orleans where all items are donated. I've been a customer for over 5-years and have made many donations as well as many purchases. I intended to buy a pallet of flooring; I gave my credit card to the cashier to pay for the flooring; I made a hasty decision because I was leaving town in a few days, then I changed my mind. On Sunday, the following day the stored was closed, I made contact with one of the stores workers by the name of Jerome. I told him I decided not to buy the flooring and requested my credit card be credited back to me for the $1980. On Monday I called and asked if I needed to bring my card to the store for the 1980 refund. I spoke to the Manager by the name of Jasmine; she informed me that they don't give refunds. Of course, I thought that was ridicules because I hadn't even removed anything from the store and proceeded to call the credit card company and file a claim for the $1980 to be refunded. Credit One gave me a temporary refund, I left town a few days later, when I returned, I still didn't think there was a problem until May 6, 2026, the day my bank reversed the credit claim, and I owed my creditor $1980. Since then, I've made attempt after another trying to recover those funds and I have not been successful. At this time my credit account is past due, and I refuse to pay for something I did not receive. The Green project sold the flooring to someone else. The manager Jasmine told my creditor that I had picked up the flooring and also told them there was a large, posted sign stating, "no refund policy", but this is not true, there was no sign at all posted. The Green Project knows very well I did not pick up the flooring, and they should've simply refunded my card. Basically, this is theft.

    The Green project is a must for any DIY, creative maker, home improvement peoples or…read morevintage/historic home owner. This multiroom warehouse offers a plethora of bits and bobs from donated and gathered home improvement wares. One time I picked up an old door, an old timey facet head and some hinges. From these super economical finds, I was able to fabricate a garden gate, using the faucet as a creative spin on a traditional doorknob or latch. I love it. Recently, I eye spied, a partially used tub of tile adhesive and several random tiles. They'd be the perfect solution with someone with a tiny bathroom or counter top that needed sprucing up. You can find doors, windows, screen, light fixtures, tiles, wood, paint, and a whole host of parts that you can't pick up at any big box store. Think of the green project like a thrift store for your house or creative endeavor. Be patient and diligent, as it can be hit or miss.
