Price Match Guarantee

Builders

Price Match Guarantee

If you find a lower price on an identical item, Builders will match it – just bring us the competitor’s current ad or printed price, or we will call to verify the item price and availability.

EXCLUSIONS

The Price Match Guarantee applies only to cash and carry purchases (no in-store charge accounts). Closeout, special order, discontinued, clearance, liquidation, and damaged items are excluded. The competitor must have the item in stock. Rebate, gift card, or store credit offers or those requiring other conditions may also be excluded. On percent-off sales, Builders will match the competitor’s percent-off offer. This guarantee is limited to reasonable quantities for homeowner and one-house order quantities for contractors.  Again, note that purchases must be cash, check or credit card to qualify. Delivery, labor, or other service charges are excluded. Builders reserves the right to reject any price match that cannot be verified.

Kearney Drive Thru

Kearney Drive-Through

For lumber and building materials purchases, the Drive-Through lumberyard is certainly at the top for convenience and speed.

Whether you pay in the store and then come load, or if you come only to the DriveThru to pay,  our team will direct you to the product.  They will help you load it, or if you wish to be selective and load yourself you are certainly welcome to.

Products are carefully placed so that specific items are grouped together by project, and they are situated with bulky, heavy items first and lighter, easily-damaged items are near the exit.

Our customers, both pros and do-it-yourselfers, rave over the speed, convenience, and ease of loading materials out of the weather and never having to get out of their vehicle.

Corp- More History

Our History

The company was started in 1977 in Kearney, Nebraska as Payless Building Center. It was a 2,000 sq. ft. retail/office space with an 8,000 sq. ft. delivery yard, and only four employees. In 1985, the company outgrew its facility and moved to 2nd Ave where the store resides today. A few years later the business becomes Builders Warehouse. Fourteen years later Builders acquired Spelts Shultz countertop manufacturing in Kearney, Nebraska. As the years moved on Builders became a member of Do it Best Corp., a worldwide buying group. The doors opened at our Grand Island, Nebraska Builders in 1995, in conjunction with acquiring the Spelts Schultz truss manufacturing plant also in Grand Island. In 2008 Builders crossed state borders to expand the business and opened it’s Colorado location operating as a professional lumberyard and a truss and wall panel manufacturing plant. In 2016, the Colorado location was outgrowing their facility and moved to Aurora, Colorado. Builders and Spelts Schultz manufacturing has a strong outlook and plan for growth in the upcoming years.

2004 Builders Kearney store update and addition of the Drive Thru lumberyard.

Company Timeline

Myron

Our Founder

Born and raised in Central Nebraska, Myron Andersen had a dream to open a lumber yard in Kearney, Nebraska in efforts to increase efficiencies in having building materials readily available for all contractors in the region. In 1977, Myron did just that. With a young family, great determination, and lofty goals, Myron opened “Payless Building Center” on 30th Ave. Fortunately for us all, Myron had the drive to continue to grow the business and make what is now Builders, who we are today! It wasn’t always easy as Myron will often say. Our industry has fallen upon several dark times making it very difficult to succeed. However he always directs the success of the business to the people who made this company.

Words fail to express the appreciation of your support for our company.”
