Where Is the Nearest Lowe's to Athens, Tennessee? Store Locations, Hours, and Delivery Options
By Alexander Ross
The Cleveland warehouse at 2300 Treasury Drive Southeast serves as the primary outpost for Athens residents. The drive is straightforward, reliable, and almost entirely highway mileage.
From central Athens, drivers take Decatur Pike west toward Interstate 75. Merge onto I-75 South at Exit 49. Stay in the center lanes through Riceville and Calhoun, crossing the Hiwassee River into Bradley County. Take Exit 25 for US-25W/TN-60 toward Cleveland/Dayton. Keep left at the fork, merge onto Georgetown Road Northwest, and connect to Paul Huff Parkway before turning south onto Treasury Drive. Under standard midday traffic conditions, the 28-mile run takes 30 to 35 minutes. Friday afternoon commuter traffic between Calhoun and Exit 27 can add 10 to 15 minutes to that projection.
Drivers looking to avoid interstate congestion during highway construction or severe weather can use US-11 South. The route tracks parallel to the railroad through Charleston and directly into northern Cleveland. It adds approximately eight minutes of drive time due to lower speed limits and municipal traffic signals, but it avoids interstate bottlenecks entirely.
Standard Lowe's home improvement store hours in Cleveland operate Monday through Saturday from 6:00 AM to 9:00 PM, and Sunday from 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM. The contractor service desk opens at 6:00 AM on weekdays to support early job-site staging.
