About Us

Rocket Reuse is a family-owned and operated shop in Alameda, California, built around a simple idea: buying secondhand should be just as easy and enjoyable as buying new. 

Everything in our shop is personally selected by us, so every shelf, rack, and bin reflects the things we love and the unexpected discoveries we hope you'll make.

Good for our community. Good for the planet.

Buying secondhand is about more than finding a good deal. It's about keeping things in circulation and supporting a more thoughtful way of shopping. We work hard behind the scenes to ensure that the items you sell to us find new homes and are loved again and again.

Money stays local.

We buy directly from our neighbors, putting thousands of dollars back into our local community every month.

Great things get a second life.

Every secondhand purchase helps keep usable items in circulation and reduces the need for new products and packaging.

 

Bigger and better!

Over the years, Rocket Reuse has grown up a lot, and our new space at 1424 Park Street is the next chapter in that story. We've created a place that reflects our vision for the shop: a space to browse, explore, and lose yourself in the simple pleasure of discovering something wonderful.

We're grateful to the community that has supported us since 2010 and made this journey possible. Every item that comes through our doors, every familiar face, and every new discovery is part of what makes Rocket Reuse what it is.

Come on in, stay awhile, and see what finds you.
