Star Supply is a best kept local secret. If your eccentric tinkering Dad could imagine a store to spend a couple of hours in... this is that daydream. Today, I saw butcher block countertop pieces there, wallets made from recycled rubber, anti-fatigue mats, and big bags of marbles... I bought 3/8 cotton cord for making a coiled rag rug (100 feet for 8$), and heavy washers for use as fabric weights in my sewing studio. I also found a heavy duty set of casters for my cutting table. But what makes this place 100% fantastic are the hilarious little signs over each unusual little pile of items... Dad will love it, so will Mom, Uncle Fester, Pugsly and Wednesday. Classic Youngstown!
Love shopping here! They always have a good selection of whatever nuts and bolts you need. Plus they are always getting different stuff in. Need vinyl lattice? How about a window or door for your house? Trim board? Expanded metal? Aluminum or steel angle, tube, plate? Tires for your mower? Pillows for your outdoor patio? Counter tops for your kitchen? Theyve got all that and much, much more! Even if you dont need anything (youll find something!) Stop and look around as you never know what youll find!
Love this place! Very eclectic. Need a countertop and wheels for you lawnmower? Done lol
Always a fun and interesting shopping experience. Highly recommended! 👍
Very friendly staff and very helpful
Loved it as always. Bought things I had uses for and things I had no idea what I am going to use them for!
One of the things I love about this place is the employees are ALWAYS friendly. Worth stopping anytime Im in Y-Town just to see whats new . Prices are creeping up, but I guess its happening everywhere.
Great store with fair prices. Got roughly 100 carriage bolts, washers & nuts. Paid by the pound
Cool place! Difficult hours for me to get there but we are in a pandemic.I am going back and loading up. My family thought the bowling pins were the coolest thing. Im getting a few of those.Yes they have bowling pins and everything in between.
I love going for something I want, but, moreover, for the thrill of finding unexpected things that change so often, its like shopping some place new. You never know what youll find.
Always fun to see whats new, never dissipated.
Not bad. It has a lot to look at. Ill definitely go back.
The employees were really helpful. Great prices
Love this place cheap windows odds and ends that you can create a new look in your home, patio, or garage
A lot of rare items, but not always in stock. Pricing is fair to good.
Good prices,,nice people
Had all the items I was looking for and at a great price
Everyone was very helpful. And cashier was knowledgeable. Very good prices
This place always has exactly what Im looking for!
Love this place, you never know what youll find!
Like their prices and things people are friendly
Great price for painting, wood stain windows and doors. No bath room items but kitchen cabinets. I gave them 5 star but be aware of no bathroom supply.
I love Star Supply. my husband and I and our adult children enjoy shopping here. we are like kids in a candy store. They always have odds and ends, you never know what you might find and you always leave with something no matter what.
Youngstowns best place for bargain tools, building materials and more! You never know what youll find.
Such a fun store! Even just going in to read the signs is worth the trip. Great prices is a bonus!
My new favorite place!!!
Service staff is always great. Helpful. Friendly. Knowledgeable. Current hours are not shopper friendly. Banks are open more hours!
Star Supply was very helpful. Very patient with me. And the atmosphere is very clean and organized. I enjoyed my purchase there.
OMG! Im in LOVE! THIS is an AWESOME store! Ive driven by many times, wanting to stop but never having the time to actually do it. I had time to kill so I stopped by, and Im sooooo glad I did! I was greeted at the door by several energetic employees... When I told them it was my first time there, they were all kinds of excited to give me good info. A plethora of items to behold... I SWEAR I got *whiplash* just looking around (astonished) at all they had to offer! The prices? FANTASTICAL!Seriously, though, visit this store. The employees are awesome, great selection of items, and VERY affordable prices! Give yourself at LEAST a half-hour to peruse the aisles and endcaps. I promise, you will NOT be disappointed!!!!
Its good store to visit if u are looking for things to make repairs on a house or other things they salvage left over items from other places stuff is cheaper if u can find it there I went there to have keys made they charge .90 cents to make a house key a car key was $1.40 they have big inventory so u have to go and look around
Great selection! Great prices!
Great place you can find just about anything you need freindly people great service
Always helpful. The price is right.
Always cool stuff here
Star Supply is my go to surplus store for those items that you dont know that you have to have until you see them. All jokes aside, you will find items that you didnt know existed that you can use in future projects. Plan a shopping trip to the store. You will enjoy it and return for more.
Always a great place to find a deal
We always find something useful at a great price when we take a trip up to Star Supply! Sometimes its completely random nothing you planned on grabbing and of course theyre always good for supplies you do need for a better price! The store is dusty and full of stuff and perfect for what it is!
Large selection of unique & every day construction items such as baseboards, trim & oak butcher blocks. All at great prices. My new craft room is grateful! Staff is extremely helpful!
This Place Is The Absolute best! Ill drive from Columbus to get stuff from them because the prices are so good and they have such unique selection. Its a really clean store and the staff is very friendly and helpful. Theres a hint of army surplus in a good way not in a do you want to by a black market MIG 15 kind of way. I always look down every aisle because have so many little hidden gems that you didnt know you need. I cant say enough nice things about this place. The world needs more stores like this.
They have so much stuff here. The person who makes signs has a sense of humor and can think of oddball things to do with the assortment of stuff they have. Before we begin any home-improvement projects we stop there to see if they have items in stock that will be able to be used for an incredibly reduced price. When I taught middle school and our children were building vehicles for a creativity competition, we would stop there because they had so many things that could be adapted. They had table tops and paneling and doors and hardware and cabinets and you name it.
Were redoing the laundry room. If this countertop works ( size) I will have saved over $100! Going home to measure. Also spied some cabinet doors that might work. Worth while to check them out if you like to D.I.Y. I bought two little toys for $2.00. I understand inventory changes, so we will be going back on and off to see what they have.
This is a fun place to come to look for hardware, construction, and craft odds and ends. Its a large surplus store and everything is well organized. If you are looking for something specific, they can usually help you find it or help you figure out where to get it.
Got keys made great price and fast. Reasonable prices on supplies for repairs or upgrades for your home. Got good deal on pillows for my couch. Bought a rake also for 10 bucks.
It was my first time actually going inside. Its a pretty cool place. They have a great selection of stuff. Definitely worth going there.
Love all the stuff they have there.
There is not a better hard wear store in a 100 miles. I dont travel to youngstown as often as i used to but i always try and stop when Im in the area just to see whats new. This is hands down one of the best places to buy windows if your looking for a replacement.
Purchased full set of kitchen cabinets and paid in full in advance and the cabinets arrived within a few days. We decided to purchase 3 more cabinets to put in an island, so two weeks ago tomorrow I purchased them, again paying in full in advance. When I ordered I asked about lead time and was told that it would take a week or two at the most. Tomorrow is 2 weeks, and no cabinets. I inquired by phone and first they told me point blank, we will call you when the cabinets are in without even getting my information. It was like they wanted to get me off the phone. Then I spoke with Carla who I was told is the manager and she explained that if I read their brochure orders can take a minimum of 10 days. I proceeded to try to explain that when I ordered them they said it would be within 2 weeks and that given their deliveries are on Tuesday and Thursday, and the granite supplier is coming out on Tuesday at 2 pm to measure, I wanted to know if they could find out exactly if the cabinets will be in on this coming Tuesday. Before I could finish explaining Carla interrupted me and said, You arent hearing what I am saying, and gave me an explanation of what business days are and how Saturday is not a business day. No kidding! I already know that. Point is I have been a customer of Star Supply for a long time and I have never been treated so condescendingly. Purchases from customers like me help pay Carlas salary and we should not be treated in that fashion. I asked if she could call and verify that our cabinets would be in on the Tuesday truck but she said that her boss Jodi, who was not in until Monday, would have to do that. Carla never offered to have Jodi call me, or take any message. I am very disappointed and I am sure they will lose a lot of business with this attitude.
The place to go for all building or craft needs. Great place. Worth a visit just to check out the inventory and prices. We bought our countertops there 10 years ago and we do a lot of cooking in our kitchen, and they still look brand new. They have almost everything here at great deals.
The only store of the this type i know of within 300 miles. you never know what you will find here, from random plastic mass produced throw aways, to trailer hitches. also a reliable supply of cheap cabinet - window - trim supplies.
They have everything you need
Great place to find unique items. Employees are friendly and knowledgeable. I can browse for hours!
Great for shipping supplies. Boxes, tape, cardboard, foam, etc. All very reasonable
All sorts of groovy things. I built up a picture window wall using argon- filled sealed-glass units @$20/ea. All sorts of industrial seconds, plus a major sense of wry humor by the owners. A Youngstown institution.
Have always loved this store. Not only does it sell an eclectic assortment of goods, but the humor connected to those goods keeps us coming back. Happy 50th!
Star Supply has a variety of materials. As an artist, there are plenty of buyout items to be used in a creative way. Suggestion: if you see it and like it purchase it because it may not be available on the second visit.
As a DIYer, I very much enjoy browsing the aisles at Star Supply. They have a bit of everything you can imagine from electric motors to counter tops. They have windows, doors, chairs, chains, tools, home decor, machinery, metal sheets, bars, nails, screws, lighting, surplus, overstock, closeouts, etc.... Some items they always have, many items are limited due to the nature of their business. I try to get back every couple weeks just to see what they have this week. Sometimes I find things I didnt know I needed until I see them. Some of the unique items I have personally bought are bowling pins, traffic light lenses, foam sheets, duct tape ( several colors ), grinder and sander accessories. Check out their ever changing stock and take the time to read the many comically satirical product description signs. Its worth the trip.
Love shopping here. The people are very friendly and helpful. They carry high quality products. Favorite store .
A comical place to shop. Just got a window for 98 dollars. 34 x 66 nice. Double hung cant pass that deal up.
Like the sign @ the door urges, feel free to browse, gawk & shop. This local hardware store has more to offer than nuts n bolts. Fascinating art & sculpture made from vacuum parts & odd materials haunt the store. Clear aisles. Marked prices. Helpful staff (Michelle a new hire was exceptionally friendly). SS is an indie place to swing by & grab goods on the cheap. Whether u need parts for yr class project (my 2nd grader making a 🎸) or wanna pickup handmade, recylced art from overseas (potholders to button photo frames) check out STAR SUPPLY!
Always a good time to shop with this staff. Very friendly and knowledgeable about products. I always get my additional keys cut here and if I have a problem they immediately address and resolve my issue without hesitation.
Very friendly staff, fantastic prices on and incredible inventory.
If the need arises for a weird piece of hardware at a really low price this is the place. Nice people. Great place to browse. Countertops to washers and faucet handles.
Looking for something you dont even know you need? Looking for cheap home improvement materials? Looking for totally random, old, antique, hipster like supplies for inspiration with your artwork or DIY crafts? Look no further friends, Star Supply is the place for you.
What an experience and a treasure this place is. I took my wife and kids in here because our old gas furnace needed a replacement blower, the belt-driven one had about died and I thought Id seen them here before. I snapped a pic of the electric motor placard and matched up the best I could on a newer-style direct drive blower, used for only $40. I was hesitant but I sorted out the wiring and wired it up and to my pleasant surprise it works even better than the old belt-drive unit and is so much quieter.My kids, of course, were interested in the toys that looked like surplus from something or other and lady, who appeared to be maybe an owner or manager, was over-the-top kind enough to give each of my kids a nice toy dump truck. They were excited for days afterward and it means a lot to me as a parent that someone would be kind enough to make a little gesture such as that for my kids instead of being upset that there are little kids touching all over the merchandise.Ill continue to go back here because more often than not I find things that I didnt even realize I needed!
Great prices and a lot of building supply selection. Staff are friendly and helpful.
Always a treat to wander through Star Supply. I often get s stuff for scenery or props for Kent State Trumbull
Great place to get wheels bearrings for tractors an all the odds an ends you cant get at tractor supply
If you need anything you just might find it here old ancient new or updated totally different been there forever and a day good prices
I can always find something when i go in here. Thats why i limit myself to twice a month.
Love this picture never know what you are going to find.
I love this store. Great place to find inspiration outside the box.
Star supply is legendary. Its basically the only reason why I would ever risk my life and step foot in youngstown. My mind explodes with future projects as soon as I walk in the door. Super cheap. AND I WILL NEVER GO ANYWHERE ELSE FOR COUNTERTTOPS. Or crown molding. Or base molding. Hopefully they never stop selling the stuff. Thank you STAR SUPPLY!!!!!
Convenient store, but one worker there needs a tune up on customer relation
They have weird off the wall items for home repairs and the price is right...
Definitely a cool hardware store. They dont have everything but ya dont know what you shall find. Neat recycled bags and nik naks 😸
Just check out Star Supply. There is standard stuff there for sure, but you never really know what you are going to find. Good prices, and the staff is customer oriented and friendly.
You never know what youll find in here Oddball selection of metals, good plastic drums or barrels and all sorts of supplies such as small wheels and paint. Pretty neat place!
Employees extremely helpful and knowledgeable about products in store. Lots to see and look through, including several hard to find items. Worth a trip to look around.
Be ready to send some time here. I usually end up with something that I didnt know I needed. Good people working here.
Great place to find ... whatever. We bought a used file cabinet for $49 as well as assorted other unplanned items.
They always have everything I need and stuff I didnt know I needed until I saw it there. Cashier is always friendly and helpful.
Any think you want they got, go check it out.
Very cool store with some crazy things to purchase
I was there the salesman didnt help me at the counter he said he didnt see me. I am a 6foot black woman and I was on a walking cane and weigh in at 234lbs. He claims he didnt me. I will not be back so sad you live in the neighborhood and go to this store often to bad I will inform the people who keeps this open 😟😟
All kinds of great household repair stuff! GREAT prices and assortments of kictchen counters! The person who called it a dump apparently dosent understand recycling and using GOOD left over items. You can find many interesting and unique items here! Worth the visit!
Never know what youll find here but the visit is always fun. I usually pick up something that I had no intentions of getting, along with a couple of their standard items, every time Im in there.
Neat place to check out for do it yourself types
This place is great. Bought a section of butcher block and used it for my breakfast bar. Also buy the surplus items to make halloween props
This place is great, everyday items, plus those hard to find ones. Nuts n bolts, to countertops, sheets of metal, etc. Get in there and find it!
Always a great place to find items to start a project !!
You never know what youll find here. Sometimes they never get the same thing twice, some things they always have. Good selection of upholstery fabrics very, very cheap.
This is the spot for unique stuff for an art project and home improvers save a ton of $ here. Everything from nuts and bolts to counter tops windows doors and more
Got countertop at half price of anywhere we had checked
Just amazing, its fun to let your imagination run while perusing all the unique items.
Needed riding lawnmower tire, place had a good variety of items for many different hard to find items.from tires to windows.
If youre a DIY kind of person this place is like xmas morning. One of a kind close outside and all kinds of metal for building things.A whole asle of screws and bolts of all kinds.
This place is awesome. I always seem to find something I can use.
