Welcome to Wood Shed Lumber & Hardware Supply

Carrollton, Missouri has had a locally-family owned lumber and hardware store for over 67 years. The tradition continues with the Eiserer family purchasing Warren Lumber Yard in June 2016 and operating the business as WOOD SHED Lumber & Hardware Supply – Do It Best.

We are committed to providing top notch customer service and great products to the greater Carrollton area and the communities of Ray County, Livingston County, Saline County, La fayette County, Caldwell County, and Chariton County of Central Missouri.

We aim to provide the best electrical, plumbing, hardware, fasteners, hand and power tools, automotive, paint and sundries, gift and décor, gas and pellet grills, lumber and building materials. We don’t stop there, we help find solutions to help customers build, maintain, and entertain where they live and to impact and grow the communities we serve.

We offer over 67,000 items through our warehouse that can be shipped to your door, or to our store! Other services provided are UPS shipping and drop off location, key cutting, glass cutting, propane refills and delivery.

Growing Our Roots

The WOOD SHED Lumber & Hardware Supply has teamed up as a business partner with the local elementary classroom. The children and the team enjoy the classroom visits by sharing a great story and conversation. These amazing children bless us beyond measures by showering us with thoughtful thank you cards and artwork. We love being in the classroom!

The Eiserer Family

It's all hands on deck in the store or in the community. Our little family grew to five just after purchasing the business and couldn't be more excited to learn and grow together. For years Porter, Cecily and Novah assist in the family business by sharing our story on KMZU and KRLI radio, putting up the truck orders, and assisting customers. In 2021 the Eiserer family grew to six with a second son, Marlo.

Our Customers are the Best Customers

The WOOD SHED team enjoys entertaining our customers every chance we can. Fish Fry, Chilli & Cinnamon Rolls, Traeger grilled chicken, deer, or brisket. You never know when the Traeger grill just might be smokin'.

Without our customers, our growth as a business wouldn't be possible: thank you!

In 2021, Wood Shed expanded to Richmond and Concordia, MO with the purchase of the Derstler Lumber businesses. The growth allows for more opportunities of growth for its employees. It also opened the business up for better buying opportunities which helps better serve the communities.

In 2023, Wood Shed will be expanding to Cameron and Warrensburg, MO. The need to find more like minded home improvement folks to help serve our customers has arrived. What is it you are looking for in your next career move, because we believe we've got a good thing going on over at Wood Shed.
