This is the warehouse used for the sale.<\/p>\n The main building I believe is 50’x100′. Towards the back is a shipping container used to store larger pieces of furniture. They have another on the left side of the building.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The Knights have many volunteers that help with the sales. On the day we visited Rose was organizing and pricing. She took some time to show us around. Notice they have dedicated sections for various types of merchandise and that seasonal items are grouped together.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Several of the Volunteers are computer savvy. They sell computers and other electronics.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n According to Rose, one of the women who volunteers runs an antique\/art store. She has her own section were items that she considers valuable are displayed.<\/p>\n A very nice donated display case is used to show off jewelry.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Lighting fixtures are hung overhead. Good use of space.<\/p>\n Kitchen appliances have been cleaned and displayed neatly on shelves.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n They have set aside an area to repair salable items.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n A few pictures to show how the building and shelves are put together. There are no interior columns. Notice how the rows of shelves are tied together with 2x4s to prevent them from toppling.<\/p>\n The warehouse is heated and air conditioned.<\/p>\n A stack of plywood tables they use to display items outside.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The Knights’ hall. It is used on the sale days to display the “nice” furniture stored in the shipping containers. The Knights’ sale also benefits from the good relationship they have with the Elks lodge next door. Plenty of overflow parking is available.<\/p>\n One of the volunteers told to me that after a sale very little is thrown out. The local Habitat for Humanity Restore and other organizations take some of the unsold items. The rest is left out for the public to take away for free.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" My father was a member of this K of C assembly New Bern, NC.
