Hardware Sales

Hands down the best hardware store I have been to. Huge selection, basically everything you could need, plus extremely friendly and helpful staff! Prices were fair for independent.

Another very pleased customer. I'm usually approached by staff who help me find what I need and offer sage wisdom a long the way. They always seem to have the odds and ends I need to complete a project and alternative ideas for me if they don't. It is such a solid, good experience.

Hardware Sales's part rep Curtis was able to purchase an item for me from a local distributor that was wholesale only, all while 5 minutes before they closed which fixed my furnace and gave me heat for the night. Thank you Curtis!

Mike Packard is the person to see at Hardware Sales if you need a knife sharpened. He did a terrific job of hand finishing a serrated bread knife that another sharpener had worked on with machine.

The best hardware store I’ve ever seen. Staff are extremely knowledgeable. Often go there for advice as much as tools or materials.

If I win the lottery, this is the first store I would go to. It’s also the only hardware store that I would ask advice from the staff and feel confident that they know what they are talking about.

You could send your wife in here with a random flange or bolt and tell her to ask someone to help her to find the pieces you are looking for and they will.

Seriously one of my favorite places to find new tools I probably don’t need or small things to finish the projects I’ve been working on for years.

After 6 years of shopping casually at Hardware Sales, today the team did an absolutely amazing job of customer service- and it's earned my business for life! I needed a new chainsaw, and the team went absolutely above and beyond to ensure I found the most correct tool for my property. Not only did they take their time with walking me through the various models, they made sure I understood starting, stopping, maintenance, and adjustment. HUGE thanks to the team at the lawn and garden department! The only thing worse than spending too much money is not spending enough... But perhaps a pushy sales person is worse? ZERO push from these guys, just a realistic look at what I would- and would not- need for my purposes. I ended up spending over $700 with them on a really nice tool, and I'm relieved to know I've got exactly the right tool. And these guys will be there when it's time for service. Thank you Hardware Sales!

The big box stores have not been helpful. Yesterday, I stopped by Hardware Sales. I was inquiring about a water valve for my dishwasher line and Davey in plumbing, quickly showed me exactly what I needed. From now on, because of this great employee service, I will always shop for hardware at Hardware Sales.

I can’t always afford to shop here, BUT if Lowes or HD don’t have it, they definitely will. I imagine they have nearly the same overhead as a box store (with a much higher employee to customer ratio) which leads to the prices being a bit higher, but when you need something you need it. If I am on a project and I am stalled out with little time to go hunting I just pay the convenience tax and go straight there. Unless it’s Sunday….and I forget they are closed…then it is brutal and I swear a little.

My one gripe with this place is that you really don’t know if you are going to get the “sweet helpful” person or the “gruff done it all I have things to do so here it is” person when you stop someone for help.

My favorite store in Bellingham as I could wander the aisles but their consistent tendency to help always sends me in the direction and support I need to handle an old or new (to me) task with the supplies required at a decent price.

A friend recommended me this store. She told me they have everything you can imagine/need. What I didn’t expect, aside from finding everything I needed, was just how great the service would be. Until that day I had not realized just how much I’ve missed having real honest to goodness “service”. Nowadays you go into a store and the staff point you in the direction of what you ask for and leave you there. They don’t care if you find it or not, or if it’s even the right thing. Not here. This will be my go-to hardware store from now on. Thank you for having what we need and helping us find it!

Amazing diversity of stock plus amazingly knowledgeable and helpful staff. I needed a specific bolt to repair grandchildren’s seesaw. Young lady kept looking for correct thread. Turned out it was metric and she figured that out! Far superior to the big box stores

Three things are true about Hardware Sales every time I visit:
1) I can never find what I'm looking for on my own.
2) But they do always have exactly what I need
3) And a sales associate will always be able to find it for me.

It may be a confusing maze (and I kind of love that... it's seriously fun to just wander if you're not in a hurry) but the inventory and customer service here is on a scale you just don't see elsewhere.

This is the go-to place for biz needs. They have an extensive inventory for all sorts of things you might need to run your biz: landscaping equipment, rentals (everything from ladders to heavy machinery), pressure washing, nuts and bolts and all the small misc pieces that keep your machinery running smoothly, absolutely anything you might / will need is here. They have excellent, knowledgeable customer service staff as well.

Truly appreciate the personal service. Always willing to help. The will call / pickup is really a blessing right now with COVID. Such nice, helpful staff! they have items we can't find at local big box stores. Don't plan on shopping anywhere else. Highly recommend!

Great place to get supplies and tools. They have lots of odds and ends. Staff are very helpful and the store is filled with them.

There's a building supply shop and they rent tools and ladders.

There's also a chainsaw repair shop.

I cannot say enough about this family owned hardware store. This is one of my favorite stores of all time. If you do home improvement you need to visit this store. You will be amazed of the amount of things this store has. If you can't find what you're looking for be sure to ask. The staff is knowledgeable and can provide ideas for whatever project you are working on. Many of the employees are ex tradesman with lots of experience. Go here before you go to any big box stores.

Although I have not shopped at this place very much because I am usually not the one doing the buying, I have been to this store on many occasions! This place also is reviewed all the time over the years by many of my grandpa's and uncles. Nobody has ever said anything bad about hardware sales. From what I have seen the customer service is always very informed and will help you get exactly what you need. They are prompt and they are very knowledgeable. I feel like as I am in there visiting that these people really have a good idea of what in the world you are actually doing. That is exceptional when most of the rest of the world has not a clue. If you have to ask me to rate the expertise in the quality of and knowledge of the service at hardware sales, I would say it is a 5 star service! Good job guys it seems to me you have an excellent understanding of what things are being sold for and not just a package. But the actual concept! Good job I am certain from what I hear you guys aren't hardware sales for NOTHING!

I love this place. Better selection than generic hardware stores, and the staff is actually knowledgeable. I was looking for an obscure valve for a pet project of mine, and a worker went out of his way to go checkout what was in the back and present me with a cheaper option that would do the job.

Highly recommend this store to everyone.

I moved to Bellingham for this place. I design a lot of things and needed a real old fashioned hardware store that carries everything that you can think of and more. And if they don't have it, they can order it. Staff is always very helpful and knowledgeable, able to answer any questions you may have or give suggestions and alternatives.

You have to love a hardware store that you have to wind your way through, and can get lost in. It's so Great a store
