Welcome to ACO

Welcome to ACO, Michigan's largest hardware store chain. ACO was started in 1946 by the Traskos brothers. There have been a couple of name changes since the beginning but the ACO name came about in the late 1970's and continues on to this day.

If you have never been in an ACO Hardware store you are in for a surprise. ACO is not your typical hardware store. They offer many items, there is something for everyone. Toys for the kids at great prices - 60% off regular price this weekend. Into crafting, then look at the artificial flowers and vases, candles, and yarn and knitting accessories. Need and air conditioner to beat today's heat- look no farther. ACO has them at great prices.

The 4th of July at ACO means many things. The first is serving customer needs for the holiday weekend. Great place to get last minute items like charcoal, water, lighter fluid and more. There is a toy sale going on and a clearance sale with an extra 20% off green tag items. Chlorine for the pool is also on sale. July 4th is also time for the next step in your fertilizing schedule. This means that regular lawn fertilizer is needed or lawn fertilizer with insect killer in it. I, myself, would just go for Milorganite. Milorganite is a green type fertilizer and a non burning fertilizer, which means it won't burn your lawn even with the lack of good rain these past couple of weeks. Patio furniture is at a great deal especially if the store you are going to shop at is down to the display model. Also check out the great sidewalk sale deals, you might just find a deal on something you needed or wanted.

ACO also has some great deals on dry food goods. Next time you are near an ACO Hardware why not take a minute and stop and see what's in the store. The employees are friendly and most have been there a long time so they have the knowledge to help you, the atmosphere is peaceful, and I can guarantee this isn't your typical hardware store. You may find to your surprise that you like the place. I will try and feature some spotlight items of the week found at ACO and if you have any questions feel free to leave them in the comments and I will do my best to answer them. I am also quite knowledgeable on hardware products and have many tips and tricks to help guide your project along. Each week I will also try and do a theme type project help list.
