The file has all 3,174 locations across 52 states in one download. Building the same list by searching one area at a time tends to miss places, and a missed place looks like a gap in coverage that is not really there.

How we build and date every file: methodology.

Using ChatGPT, Claude or an API?

No setup needed. Ask ChatGPT or Claude your question about the Do It Best Locations and give it this page: it can open https://locationlists.com/find?dataset=do-it-best-stores with the filters you need and show you the count and price.

Using ChatGPT or Claude? Tell it to answer from locationlists.com/find — no account, no connector.

How assistants ask

No connector needed. Any AI assistant can answer from this site with a web link, no connector, no account: open https://locationlists.com/find with the question as query parameters.

If a question needs filtering, distance, drive time, combining lists or a price, open a /find link: either put the question itself in q=, or build the structured link. The answer does not need an API, a connector or an account.

Simplest, the question itself: https://locationlists.com/find?q=<the question in plain words>

Or set the parts yourself: https://locationlists.com/find?dataset=<slug>&state=<ST>&city=<city>&county=<county>&zip=<zip>&near=<place or zip>&radius=<miles>&drive=<minutes>&where=<column>:<op>:<value>&total=<rows>

Leave out what the question does not need. Use radius for straight-line miles or drive for minutes of driving (5 to 60), not both; near can name several places separated by | to reach from any of them. To ask about several lists at once, use datasets with two or more names, or category with a kind of business. To compare two lists, add relate=nearest and the other list with b. in front of its parameters. To count by area, use areas=county (or zip, state, metro). To keep only places whose county, ZIP code, metro area or state meets a Census figure, add area_where (for example county:population>1000000); with areas, per=100000 gives counts per 100,000 residents.

Links an assistant can open, each showing how many rows match, a few preview rows and the price for just that part:

Optional: connect for repeat use or wallet payments:

Read https://locationlists.com/skill.md and follow the instructions to connect LocationLists. Then show me the Do It Best Locations list.

Your assistant will walk you through setup and show you the price before you pay.

?Frequently Asked Questions

What's included in the Do It Best store data CSV?

File built on October 11, 2026. Rebuilt weekly on an automatic schedule. The date on this page is the date of the file you would download.

We're a lumber manufacturer looking for independent hardware and building supply dealers. Is Do It Best the right network to target?

Do It Best's 3,174 member stores include a significant number of lumber yards and building material dealers — it's one of the most lumber-focused cooperatives in the US. The dataset gives you every member's name, phone, and address for direct outreach. Filter by states where new construction activity is highest and you'll have a focused prospect list of independent dealers who are already buying lumber through the cooperative.

How does Do It Best's geographic coverage compare to Ace Hardware?

Do It Best has 3,174 stores versus Ace's 4,000, but the overlap isn't as heavy as you'd expect — each cooperative has strength in different regions and store types. We can deliver a detailed overlap analysis showing shared neighborhoods, exclusive territories, and the combined independent hardware footprint. That intelligence is essential for any brand trying to maximize its reach through independent hardware retail.

We sell to independent hardware stores and need to redesign our field sales territories after switching from Ace to Do It Best. Can you help?

Switching cooperatives means your dealer map just changed dramatically. The 3,174 Do It Best locations give you the foundation for new territories. Our territory optimization consulting takes your rep count, the new store locations, and drive-time constraints to produce balanced territories. We've helped several building materials brands redesign territories around cooperative networks — the key is ensuring each rep has enough volume in their territory to justify the coverage.
