Roscoe Center True Value & Just Ask Hardware

This is your friendly, local hardware store — with knowledgeable, helpful staff. Yes, it still exists.
Have gone to this store many times over the years. They can answer almost any question; they have almost every part.
They also have a huge rental shop in the back of the store. Check it out for that piece of equipment you need to use, but can’t justify purchasing.
There is also a small motor repair shop in the hardware store. They fix and maintain snow blowers, lawn mowers, etc.
Need keys made? Do not go to the big box store for that sloppy job. Come here — and the keys fit and work.
Finally, the hardware store also rents out UHaul trailers. They will help with hitch up if need be.
Can you tell? They have about everything you could need covered. This is truly your local hardware store.

Just the right location if you need just a few things. Customer service beats the big box stores. Paint roller dried out… they have it. Need 3-​in-​1 oil… right here. Lost the little nut somewhere… bring the bolt in and match it up quick. Need salt for the sidewalks… bags right near the door. Need to replace a key… they’ll cut a new one lickety split. Need an electrical dimmer… no problem. Want to replace your house numbers… several styles to choose from. Need lawn fertilizer… on a pallet outside. Need to rent a U-Haul…got it right in the lot. Need a scissor lift… right over by the fence. Need air filter and belts for your mower… in the back.
Point is that if you are looking for just 1 or a couple of things… its likely they have it and you save a trip to Home Depot, Lowe’s or Menards.
They don’t have major appliances, carpeting, lumber or major stuff for remodel and construction. They are the neighborhood «go to» when you need just this or that or a quick rental. Not really any fancy-​schmantzy upscale stuff, but just the right kind of stuff, you know, the «nuts and bolts», the basic hardware items.
The service associates and clerks are friendly and helpful. Store is pretty well stocked and organized.

Dig this place, not cheap but always seem to have what I need. The employees are always polite, hard to find nowadays… peace
