“Very well organized store. Employees I encountered were very friendly and knowledgeable. One of the best Ace Stores I’ve shopped in. Thanks you for a pleasant shopping experience.”
“Delivered MDF board and they unload pretty quick. Gates open around 630-645ish, once inside gate stay right and swing left to unloading area. Yard is small. Nice people who work here. No over night pkg available. T/S approx 5 miles from here.”
“They fixed my mower the same day with no hassle at all. I'll definitely be doing business with them again in the near future. They work on lawnmowers, chainsaws, ATVs, UTVs, etc. I'm impressed!”
“I loved it. The help wasn't very knowledgeable on its products, but they were very helpful. They are mostly kids but at least they have jobs. Selection was really good and neat”
“Top shelf service here at Harbor Freight in Waycross, Georgia. I recently had the opportunity to visit this location to purchase a Predator 9000 generator. I was driving from the metro-Charlotte, NC area with my brother to get the generator because I had procrastinated in getting one here locally. I was treated so kindly. My initial contact was with Susanne on Thursday, January 22nd 2026 around 10 AM or so. This gracious lady made sure to have one Predator 9000 held for me on my promise that I'd be there later that afternoon to get the item. On my word only. Susanne put the transaction in motion by holding it for me. I still have the little slip of note paper that was taped to the box! When my brother and I arrived at Harbor Freight #00738 there in Waycross, we were given the VIP treatment by the thoughtful and helpful employees of that store. I'm sorry now that I did not get each of your names but if you are reading this, you will know who you are. Thank you to all the good people of Harbor Freight in Waycross, Georgia for your help in my getting this generator. We here in Lancaster, SC, are potentially in harm's way with a bad storm bearing down on us. Best wishes to you all!”
“Christy and the guys were so nice and helpful. I really enjoyed looking around their establishment. There’s tons of things in there. If you need items for home repair or replacement, this is definitely a place to look first. Great prices too!!!”
“Great place to do business. The Team there will do what they can to meet your home and business needs on most things except pots and pans. Just go ahead and get the lowes card before you even show up. They’re going to ask you if you have one and it really does come in handy ( but honey I can pay it off over 12 months no interest).”
Lowe's is giving its loyalty program a makeover to better serve small and mid-sized professional contractors. The home improvement retailer has changed its MVPs Pro Rewards & Partnership Program into the new MyLowe's Pro Rewards. The updated program aims to make life easier for professionals while offering more benefits from their first purchase.
Ace Hardware is reimagining itself with a new store concept. The home improvement retailer plans to invest over $1 billion in the next five years to roll out "Elevate Ace" across new and existing locations. The revamped stores will feature brand showrooms, expanded product lines, and enhanced customer service. Some locations will even boast outdoor spaces with live plant displays. Ace gave retailers a sneak peek at the concept during its recent Chicago convention. While a few stores will debut the new look later this year, the full rollout begins in January.
Ace Hardware is hammering out an impressive growth story. The retailer-owned cooperative is celebrating its 100th anniversary with a bang, reaching 5,000 U.S. stores and planning to open 200 new locations in 2024. The company hit a milestone when it opened its 100th new store this year in Henderson, Nevada. Another newcomer, Fixit Ace Hardware in Roswell, Georgia, became the 5,000th domestic Ace store.
In the latest move of its growth plan, leading paint maker Dunn-Edwards just opened 17 new retail locations throughout Northern California. This expansion of physical stores boosts the company's footprint in the region by over 50%.
The expansion caps an exciting time for the nearly 100-year-old company. With its 100th anniversary in 2025, Dunn-Edwards is strengthening its market position through planned growth focused on better serving pros, homeowners and employees.
