With just a brief flash of my lightbulb, a staff member at the counter pointed me to the wall of lightbulbs to replace it in the next room.

Looking around the store, there is probably something you will need in there not now, but maybe in the future. When the time comes, a friendly staff member will likely be there to help you navigate the shelves and find it. We have come here on other occasions for paint and screws. True Value is conveniently located in a street with many well loved businesses in Dupont Circle. Maybe get dinner with a side of hardware store? There is a bus stop a couple blocks down and it's a 10 minute walk from the circle.

We had our house painted recently, but we wanted to change the colors for two of the rooms. We…read morefigured that we would just do it ourselves as a family fun project. So I came here first thing this morning and surprisingly, I was the only customer in the store. That being said, I was helped immediately. They have so many different types of paints here, I really wasn't sure about which type to get. We needed something good that would be able to be cleaned easily, so the nice employee suggested the Duration paint with a matte type of finish. He said it was the second best paint that they offer behind Emerald. I purchased two gallons with two completely different colors, which would be more than enough paint for the two rooms. Now will come the fun part as we try to get paint on the walls, and not over everything else!

I still am not thrilled with my earlier experience where DC Sherwin Williams were out of paint…read moresamples, but this location helped me dispose of paint easily which I really appreciated. DC has some PaintCare program where local paint supply companies will accept your paint to dispose of instead of you having to go to Fort Totten trash site on Thursdays or Saturdays - and all Sherwin Williams locations seem to participate. Someone at another location said they're only supposed to accept 5 gallons of paint - although I didn't see that anywhere on the PaintCare site - but this location rolled out a cart to my car and helped me dispose of about 10 old cans of paint!
