About Us

The legacy of this 3rd generation family owned business began in 1947 when Matthew A. Noonan Jr and Audrey E. Noonan first opened their doors for business in Springfield IL.

In 1950, the company began offering hardware products offered through a co-op company that is now known as True Value.

Historical Storefront

In 1972, after serving three and a half years in the U.S. Army, Matthew A. Noonan III joined the business.

In 1994 Just Ask Rental was introduced to the retail store. Three years later, in 1997 the company expanded into a commercial supply business. Noonan Commercial Supply began with the addition of Matthew A. Noonan IV as the outside salesman.

A second location offering rental products was established in 2000, and a third in 2001. The present day Grand Rental was introduced in April 2008. Today, the family business continues to grow into the future.
