PITTSFORD, N.Y. — A recent snowstorm has left Rochester with more than a foot of snow, and local hardware stores are working to meet the demand for winter supplies. News10NBC visited Hadlock’s Ace Hardware in Pittsford to check on their stock.
Terry Dacey, owner of Hadlock’s Ace Hardware, said, “We’ve gotten rock salt in probably about six times so far this winter. This last load came in last week,” he said, gesturing towards the pallet of rock salt bags. “There was 100 bags of this one and 60 bags of the larger size.”

Dacey explained that the store learned from last year’s rock salt shortage and stocked up to avoid similar issues. “Based on last year with the tremendous shortage of rock salt, we have stocked up, so that we won’t be in that position again,” he said.
While the store is well-stocked on rock salt and snowblowers, it is currently low on shovels and heaters. A shipment scheduled for Monday morning was delayed due to the snowstorm, but more supplies are expected on Tuesday morning.
“It always amazes me. What are they thinking when they don’t have one until it actually snows?” Dacey said, reflecting on the late-season demand for snow shovels.
Residents are advised to call their local hardware store to confirm the availability of supplies before heading out.
