'It’s not Home Depot, but it’s close'
By Jody Conrad | Special to the Press Gazette
For those who live in East Milton, a trip to one of the big box stores of Pace for an item or two can be an odious experience, battling traffic and spending the time getting there and back.
Fortunately, there’s an alternative in East Milton: HBM Tools, Equipment & Supplies for Home and Business.
“We’re a small Home Depot,” said owner Bob Hunley. “If it’s at Home Depot, we probably have it here.”
Located at 8013 Highway 90, Hunley opened his store in November of 2019. Many of the items he stocks are what consumers head to the big box stores for, like generators, water heaters, household appliances, vacuum cleaners, painting and plumbing supplies, and garden tools.
