Eldredge Lumber & Hardware

Eldredge Lumber & Hardware sells lumber and building materials, windows and doors, paint and decorating supplies, hardware and housewares, and organic gardening supplies. Its contractor service center handles larger orders and lumber deliveries, and the company also rents tools and runs roll-off dumpsters for cleanouts and renovations.

The business has been run by the Eldredge family since 1937, and its stores are staffed by employees, some of whom have been there more than 20 years, who help customers find what they need. Contractors can request on-site estimates and millwork. Hours differ from store to store, so check the schedule for the location you plan to visit.
