Just want to give a big thanks to our local hardware store "Ideal lumber and Hardware" and their staff and crew for always being there, through covid, through the heatwave, through the terrible winters you can always count on them being there and having what you need and if they dont have it they will help you find it, even if it is not at their store!, now that is customer service, and best of all they always have someone ready and able to help you in the store, no wandering around lost, even if I have to pay a higher price I will keep on giving my business to Ideal instead of driving to he "Big" hardware stores in Yakima.

Never had a bad experience. Always helpful, courteous and friendly. I've been in quite a few times lately not having a clue what the part I was looking for was called, the gentlmen knew exactly what I was looking for and returned with exactly what I needed. Can't beat patience like that. These last few times, they actually cut the pieces to the. exact size I wanted. Now, that's how business should be done.

There are a few companies/businesses who could learn ALOT from the folks at IDEAL, I'm in the process of starting a business, believe me I am taking notes and little do they know they are helping me in more ways than one to get going.

A long-time family owned business this one stop shop serves the town of Toppenish and surrounding area. As the name implies, it is a lumber provider, an Ace hardware, and even somewhat of a farm supply store all rolled into one. You can get your lumber supplies, hardware, propane, little baby chicks, and even update your wardrobe with the latest Toppenish High gear. The staff and owners are friendly, helpful, and are involved in the community. It's a hub of activity and a Toppenish landmark.
