Common Questions Before you apply.

Is there a minimum spend to qualify?
No. We accept applications from any business or organization, regardless of spend volume. A property manager buying for one building gets the same account access as a facility team buying for 50 locations.
How long does approval take?
Most accounts are reviewed within 1–2 business days. Net 30 terms require a brief credit check, which can add 2–3 days. We'll let you know what's needed within 24 hours of receiving your application.
Do I need to pay anything to apply?
No. Pro accounts are free to apply for and free to maintain. You only pay for what you order, on your account terms.
Can I still place orders without Net 30 approval?
Yes. If you're not approved for Net 30 (or you don't apply for it), you can still order on a pro account using a card on file. You'll get account rep access, volume pricing, and tax-exempt setup — just not credit terms.
What about government agencies and military buyers?
We work with federal, state, local, and military buyers regularly. We keep Section 889 / NDAA compliance attestation, W-9, COI, and vendor registration docs on file. Indicate "Government / Military" on the application and we'll route you to the right onboarding flow.
What if I need a product you don't have listed?
We can usually source it. Our distribution network carries 100,000+ products beyond what's listed on the site. Send your product spec, brand preference, or competitor part number to your account rep and we'll source it and quote it — usually within one business day.

Their Counter
Try local first · we'll wait

The stores we send you to are local and independently run — often for generations, the kind of place where someone behind the counter knows the regulars. We don't own them. We just think they deserve the foot traffic. They can put most of what we sell on their next truck. Ask there before you check out here.

About our directory. National Hardware Group is an independent retailer and directory. The local stores we list and link to are separately owned and operated — we have no ownership stake in any of them, and most pay us nothing to be included. That includes plenty of stores flying a co-op banner that people don't realize are locally owned and run, not operated by a corporation. Store owners can choose to upgrade their listing for an enhanced presence or pickup features, but the base directory is free, and inclusion is never a paid endorsement.
