Find Beautiful Secondhand Furniture on Maui — Without the Showroom Markup
Furnishing a home on Maui comes with a unique set of challenges. Retail showrooms are limited. Shipping a sofa or dining table from the mainland can cost as much as the piece itself. And the big-box options that work fine on the continent often feel out of place in a space that deserves something with a little more character.
That's where Encore Furnishings comes in. We're a Maui-based furniture consignment shop — and we've made it easy to browse, buy, and pick up quality secondhand pieces without leaving the island or paying inflated showroom prices. Whether you're setting up a new home in Kihei, refreshing a vacation rental in Wailea, or looking for a statement piece for your Lahaina office, we probably have something worth a look.
Why Buying Consignment Furniture Makes Sense on Maui
On the mainland, buying used furniture is often about saving money. On Maui, it's genuinely the smarter choice for a few reasons that go beyond the price tag.
Island shipping costs are real. Getting a new sofa shipped to Maui from a mainland retailer can add $400–$1,000 in freight fees — sometimes more. When you buy consignment locally, that furniture is already here. No container fees, no customs headaches, no waiting six weeks for delivery.
You'll find pieces you won't see in a showroom. Maui attracts people with genuinely good taste — architects, designers, second-home owners who've lived all over the world. When those homes turn over, stunning pieces come with them. Mid-century credenzas, solid koa accent furniture, designer sofas still in excellent condition, hand-selected tile and stone — these aren't things you'll find at a furniture chain.
It's the sustainable choice. Buying secondhand means one less piece gets manufactured, one less shipment crosses the ocean. For a community that cares about the land and the water, consignment is a quiet way to make your home a reflection of those values.
What We Carry
Encore Furnishings isn't a single-category thrift store. Our inventory spans three distinct areas:
Residential Furniture
Sofas, dining sets, bedroom furniture, accent pieces, shelving, and more. We curate what we accept, so you'll find quality pieces that have been cared for, not just anything that came through the door.
Office Furniture
Desks, conference tables, ergonomic chairs, filing systems, and reception furniture. Great for small businesses, home offices, and commercial spaces on the island that need to outfit a space without paying retail prices for everything.
Luxury Building Materials
This is the category that surprises most people. We carry high-end tile, natural stone, fixtures, and architectural materials that were sourced for projects and never used, or salvaged from renovations. If you're doing a kitchen or bathroom remodel, this section alone is worth browsing.

Who Shops With Us
We see a pretty wide range of buyers — which makes sense given how many different kinds of people call Maui home, even part-time.
Maui homeowners who want to furnish thoughtfully without overpaying. Vacation rental owners refreshing their properties for the next season — great furniture makes a real difference in reviews and nightly rates. Second-home buyers who are outfitting a place from scratch and want to move fast without shipping an entire household from the mainland. And interior designers who appreciate having access to unique, well-priced inventory for their clients' projects.
If you fall into any of those categories (or none of them, and you just want a beautiful couch), you're in the right place.
