CARH’S BROADCAST E-MAIL – Member Update

One of the many benefits of national CARH membership is the opportunity for companies to participate in CARH’s Preferred Buyers program. We have been able to combine the size and strength of our membership to negotiate national supplier agreements at preferred pricing with large national vendors:  HD Supply, ONLINE Rental Exchange, Sherwin-Williams, Staples, and USI Insurance Services. These Preferred Buyer companies provide CARH members and member properties with unprecedented services and savings!

In addition, every purchase you make through a linked account to national CARH, supports CARH’s mission to our members and residents in the affordable rural housing industry.

We are pleased to announce that we have just recently renewed our agreement with long-time Preferred Buyer, HD Supply. We encourage all of our members to view HD Supply when purchasing all of your maintenance and renovation supplies. Some of the benefits of using HD Supply include:

• Free next day delivery, on most orders to most areas.
• Coast-to-coast coverage from over 40 distribution centers within the HD Supply network.
• Fabricated Items, such as window screens, cut window blinds, drawer boxes, drawer fronts and cabinet doors.
• Installations Services through HD Supply for HVAC systems and Water Heaters, available in most areas.
• Complete Renovation Project Management and supplies. No matter what size the project, contact them for quotes to continue increasing our overall discount.
• Online order at hdsupplysolutions.com for the most efficient and accurate method of ordering. HD representatives can get you registered, provide a quick tutorial, and you can save frequent items for quick ordering.
• Invoice Gateway for electronic invoicing. This allows you to see any invoice at any time.
• Free bin boxes and labels upon request for ease in ordering and shop organization.
• Field Account and Inside Sales Representatives will partner with CARH members along with HD Supply’s Property Improvement Team and the dedicated National Account Manager, Bill Garrett, to assist in our growth and development.
