Welcome to Town Hardware & General Store, an old-fashioned store featuring old-timey tools, toys and practical housewares. Visiting us is like taking a trip back in time -- to a time when going to the hardware store was a search for one item that turned into a leisurely discovery of an endless number of practical & hard-to-find items.

We invite you to explore a sampling of our offerings here online or to come visit us in person while enjoying the North Carolina mountains. Please call or write (snail or email) us to inquire about that special something you can't find anywhere (only a small number of our items are online). We may just have it!

We also carry thousands of everyday hardware items, from plumbing to paint to lawn and garden. Save time and gas: You can shop for - and order - most of these items 24 hours a day from Do It Best, our primary hardware supplier. You can pick up your order at the store with no freight charges (Ship to Shore program), or if it suits you better, have it delivered to you by UPS (freight charges apply).

Click here for Do It Best, the World's Largest Hardware Store.

Or simply call us during business hours and we will be happy to order most items for you (if we don't already have them in stock). Again, no freight charges if picked up at the store.
