Opportunity Programs

Online Parts Program

PartScription gives customers access to over 8 million quality parts and accessories for the valuable items all around the home. Find parts and accessories for appliances, home electronics and lawn and garden needs.

Rental Program

Did you know that by adding a rental department to your hardware business, you’re tapping into an over $15 billion rental industry? Adding a rental department will help boost sales, as well as allow “project” add-on sales. It can increase customer frequency and provide a one-stop shop for light contractors and experienced DIY hobbyists.

Hardware retailers with rental departments attract new customers and improve cash flow while increasing sales of accessory and impulse items. Rental provides retailers who compete with big box stores and discounters a service-oriented niche that few chains offer. Ask your Blish-Mize sales representative for more information on the Trusty Helper Rental Program and other store opportunity programs.
