Lowe's is the second-largest hardware store chain not just in the United States but in the entire whole world. If you're a homeowner or enjoy DIY projects, chances are if you haven't been there yet, there's a trip to one of the North Carolina-based retailer's stores in your future. And if you don't already know how to get there or you're new in town, the Lowe's website makes it simple for you to find the nearest store in your community.

Go to Lowes.com

Start by visiting the store's website at Lowes.com. The homepage offers plenty of information, including current sales and deals, categories for online shopping, ways to connect with the company via email and social media and much more. Scroll to the bottom of the page to the blue portion where you'll find even more information, such as ways to contact the company, corporate information, available services and customer service information.

Select Find a Store

Among the options in blue on the bottom section of the page, you'll see one that says "Find a Store." Click on it, and it will take you to a new page where you can search for a store by city, state or zip code. Enter your information into the search field, and wait for the results to load.

View the Map and Results

Once you've entered your information, a map will pop up, along with a list of the five closest stores to your location. You can view them on the map to get a visual idea of how far they are from your location, or you can get an idea by reading the addresses of the store on the list. You can also click on one of the results on the list to highlight it on the map.

View the Store Details

When you decide which store is closest to you or which one near you is the one you want to shop at, highlight it on the map to see even more details. You'll see the address, phone number, corporate store number, the phone number to the ProServices Desk, the store's daily hours and how many miles the store is from your location. You can also click on "store details" which takes you to a page where you can learn even more about a specific store in your area.

See the Store Directory

If you don't know your city or zip code or you want to see a list of all Lowe's stores in a particular state, you can also view the store directory. You'll find it on the home page, at the bottom of the page in the blue section where you found the "Find a Store" option. Click on "Store Directory," and once the page loads, click on the state of your choice. You can then click on any store that interests you and visit its page to see more details.
