It was Sunday.... I needed a barrel with a cover for yardwork. Went to my town store and found the perfect big barrel but no cover. We looked high and low, but no cover could be found.....
duh duh duh...... My day was headed off the rails..... I had visions of wrestling with lawn bags trying to keep them open and not able to really pack them full. Fumbling and frustratingly pushing the weeds down into the bottom of that tall bag and grumbling a little that I can't really fill these up. I want my lawn bags packed full. So full they take up the round shape of the of so important big barrel. My

Friendly and very helpful staff. Zeffi helped me and was extremely engaged in finding a answer and solution to my problem. I need shelving and she was able to find the perfect thing for me. Everyone else around were eager to help and were doing everything they could. It was a overall great team effort.

Eldredge would be 5 star if aisles were a little wider. That is only thing needed. The staff is responsive and the store has enormous inventory. I never left empty handed.
