Bud’s Warehouse recycles and sells usable building materials to the public. Bud’s offers kitchen cabinets, appliances, carpet, hardware, light fixtures, windows, doors, bathtubs, sinks, cabinet doors, furniture, and many other building materials, all donated by Denver-area home owners, builders, re-modelers, and suppliers.

All of our program employees at Bud’s Warehouse are facing significant barriers to finding work, including criminal backgrounds, substance abuse or unstable housing situations. Bud’s employees receive vocational and soft-skills trainings while on the job for six months to a year and then after successfully completing the program transition to employment in the community.

Besides supporting employment and job training, extra revenues from Bud’s Warehouse go to the creation of new ventures that employ individuals rebuilding lives. Through Belay Enterprises, Bud’s has been instrumental in the creation and incubation of several other faith venture businesses including Second Chances Thrift Store, Freedom Cleaning Services, Good Neighbor Garage and most recently New Beginnings Custom Woodwork.

For more information or to donate tax deductible building supplies, call (303) 296-3990. Bud’s Warehouse is open Monday though Friday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m and 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday.

Aside from diverting items from the landfill and offering great deals on building supplies, the staff at Bud’s work hard to create employment opportunities for people rebuilding lives from prison, addictions and homelessness.

As a program of Belay Enterprises, Bud’s hires and trains individuals who are unable to find employment due to significant barriers from the job market. Employees stay with Bud’s for 6-12 months and receive classroom and on-the-job training during their tenure. By the time someone leaves Bud’s for another job in the community, they have trained in areas including computers, personal finances, sales, customer service, received their forklift certification and much more.

Donating and shopping at Bud’s Warehouse directly funds the job-training program and helps create other employment opportunities such as New Beginnings Custom Woodworking and the Good Neighbor Garage.

Next time you shop at Bud’s Warehouse you can feel good knowing the great deal you found also helped support someone who is embarking on a new direction in life. You can support Bud’s by donating too, find out more here.

We are very excited to announce the newest opportunity to provide needed job-training to individuals recovering from prison, addictions and homelessness: mattress recycling!

Mattresses can be difficult to dispose of and they’re terrible for the landfill, but 95% of the material in mattresses is recyclable!

Beginning today, you can bring your old mattress into Bud’s and drop it off for only $15 each or we’ll come pick it up for $25. We’ll then take your mattress to our recycling facility and tear it apart for all the recyclable pieces:

• Metal springs can be recycled and the steel reused.
• Polyurethane foam can be shredded and used for carpet pads and insulation.
• Wood in foundations can be processed by wood chippers used for fuel or mulch.

By keeping your mattress out of the landfill and providing jobs for people rebuilding lives, you’ll be able to sleep better on your new mattress.

For more information or to donate tax deductible building supplies, call (303) 296-3990. Bud’s Warehouse is open Monday though Friday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m and 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday.

All of our program employees at Bud’s Warehouse are facing significant barriers to finding work, including criminal backgrounds, substance abuse or unstable housing situations. Bud’s employees receive vocational and soft-skills trainings while on the job for six months to a year and then after successfully completing the program transition to employment in the community.

Before the store opens in the morning the staff attends training sessions on a variety of different skill building topics including customer service, workplace skills, computer education and job readiness development. Employees are also assisted with resume preparation, job search skills and interviewing tips. Our goal is that every Bud’s Warehouse employee is qualified to transition into full-time, long-term employment at a living wage. This reduces the need for community assistance while also decreasing the likelihood of a return to prison.

Some of our employees are hired directly by Bud’s and others come from a variety of sources. We partner with several county job training programs, transitional housing organizations, and many TANF and community service programs.

Besides supporting employment and job training, extra revenues from Bud’s Warehouse go to the creation of new ventures that employ individuals rebuilding lives.
