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. Even as I was trying to figure out what to get, I could hear her helping the next customer with his own home item question. 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!

I recently purchased two large bags of organic potting soil for $15 each and I thought that was a good deal. The staff is attentive and helpful. One young man helps customers transport large items to their vehicles. They also let you borrow trolleys to get things to your car. I usually get my rock salt here in the winter and garden supplies here in the summer. All departments are helpful. I was in the plumbing department recently and was looking for something very small that I located immediately and the person working downstairs greeted me and asked if I needed assistance. I will continue to shop here first!

The store itself is always super clean, well-organized, and fully stocked with a great range of options for whatever you might need. Bonus points for parking too even though it's street parking only, I've never had trouble finding a spot! That said, I did run into an issue when I came in to have a key fob copied. Unfortunately, not only was the fob unable to be duplicated, but it was also accidentally deactivated during the process. Since it happened on a Friday evening, I wasn't able to reach my apartment management for a replacement, and ended up being without access for over two weeks. Despite that frustrating experience, I want to emphasize how great the team is overall. Everyone I've interacted with has been kind and helpful, and I truly enjoy shopping at this location. I just hope that, moving forward, there's a bit more caution with items like key fobs to prevent similar issues.
