    Clive, IA location: I generally love Menards, and have…read morealways found their staff to be both friendly and helpful. Not this time though. I was there at roughly 11 am on Tuesday, March 15, 2025. the problem involves a man and a woman, both of color and in late 20s or early 30s. This info is given just in case the manager of the garden center would like to start doing his/her job. I was loading 1.5 cu ft bags of soil into my cart when I noticed a skid 30 ft away. I rolled my cart less than 10 feet past the two employees described above who were leaning against shelving casually engaged in conversation. I had passed within just 3-4 feet of them. I started to unload the 4 bags from the cart onto the skid. When I looked up hoping that the guy would offer some help, I saw that he had turned his back to a 74 year old customer who was visibly huffing and puffing as he continued his conversation. That done, I went back to the soil location and added another 2 bags to the skid. After leaving the check-out I approached a managerial-looking woman who said that she was the front of store manager. I told her about it and she walked away and said nothing. So now I went out to my suv and loaded the 6 bags of soil into it. I drove to the outside of the garden center and stopped the car. That same guy was in a different location but within my view again leaning against shelving and casually chatting to someone (I couldn't see if it was the same woman).

    This is one giant warehouse where you can find any and everything. During a time of the Pandemic…read morewhen much was out of stock for your household updates -- this place normally had overstocked items. The items in need usually is here all except for enough tile where I had to turn to another store that specialized in just tile. Not to worry, because the door, paint, hardware and other odds and ends were in stock. Ordering online was easy and so was the pickup using your coded sheet sent to you when your order is ready for pickup. I've only had a few hiccups when trying to locate my items, but going to the service desk saved the day. My new Larson Door, with Schlage Hardware and kitchen flush mound light is perfect!

I didn't want to pay the $$$ get the dealer replacement. I'd been to other hardware stores that had the right width of screw, but way too long. Anyway, I decided to give this store a try. I walked in and the person at the counter asked if I needed help. I told him what I was looking for. He directed me to the correct aisle, which end, and which side of the aisle. When I got there, there was already another employee there helping someone else. After he finished with the other customer, he asked if I needed help. I showed him my key fob and went to work to find something that would fit. Eventually, he found one and even screwed it in for me, which was great because I definitely don't have a hex wrench small enough for that screw. In the end, my bill was 99 cents plus tax. What a great deal, and great customer service!

That is above and beyond. Every time I go to the store I am greeted as I walk in and I am asked what they can help me find. Wow, I just love the size of the place too. You sometimes don't need those big box stores. I highly recommend this place for your hardware needs! You won't be disappointed!

    My regular (aka go to) Home Depot!…read more Now do I enjoy going to either Home Depot or Lowe's overall...? No. I work in IT...I'm not exactly a big hands on, do it yourself, home project guy... The things that make me like going to this Home Depot... 1. The app. If I don't choose to buy the item online and do a pick up the app tells me what aisle the item I'm looking for is in and what section of the aisle I can find it at. 2. They offer a veterans discount. Not much... But it pretty much covers the sales tax here in Iowa anyway... It's easy to sign up for and add to your app if you have ID.me setup. Once it's in your app you just scan the QR code for the discount when you check out. Like any other Home Depot or Lowe's no one is EVER around when you actually need them. And I've learned to deal with that... Lol Parking is easy. The lot is huge and the store is fully handcapped accessible. They do offer a special parking space for veterans as well (one spot). The store is clean and easy to navigate. When I do need to flag someone down for help they are usually personable enough...when you can finally locate someone. The big picture... It is what is is. A HUGE big box store, with affordable prices, housing every item you could need for a project...and then some!

    This Home Depot is great because they always have a great selection of things and sometimes have…read moresome good stuff at cheap prices. I've purchased plants and soil, cleaning supplies, flooring, paint, etc. I like that you can look up the item on your phone and it will tell you what aisle your item is located. I've even purchased products online and picked up the order here a few hours later at their storage lockers. Employees here are friendly and knowledgeable. They have bins where you can recycle batteries and Compact fluorescent light bulbs (CFL) for free. https://ecoactions.homedepot.com/blog/projects/recycle-compact-fluorescent-bulbs-the-home-depot/ Plus they are pet friendly!
