Buxton’s Quality Furniture offers a great selection of home furnishings for your home, apartment, condo, or office. We work with over 12 builders to offer you the best superiority of hand made quality furniture, from bedroom sets, living room sets, desks, chests, kitchen islands, and more. Our furniture is all made from solid wood, and can be unfinished, stained, or painted.

Buxton’s Backyard Structures offers the best selection of swingsets, sheds and outdoor furniture. We will help you create the perfect backyard for you and your family. We offer wood or vinyl swingsets to keep your children out of the house, off those electronics, and enjoying the fresh air while creating those childhood memories. Imagine your children pretending their swingset is a castle and they are slaying a dragon, or they are captaining a pirate’s ship, or they are simply swinging trying to reach the clouds with their feet. We also offer sheds and garages to keep all “your toys” in. Maybe you need a place to store your lawn equipment, pool supplies, atv’s, bikes, or want to build that “SHE-SHED”, we can help. We also offer a wide variety of outdoor furniture in both wood and poly. From porch rockers to Adirondack chairs, porch swings, gliders, picnic tables, outdoor living sofa’s and loveseat’s and more, we have the perfect option you are looking for to make your backyard or porch a picture of visionary excellence.

Buxton’s Boxes Self Storage is our storage facility for residential and commercial needs. Need to declutter while you are selling your home? Want to get your holiday decorations out of the basement? Have extra inventory, files or supplies for your business? We offer sizes from 5’ x 5’ to 30’ x 50’, many sizes are offered in both non-climate or climate-controlled units. We take pride in our facility by keeping the units freshly cleaned and painted before every move-in. Our facility is fenced and lighted, has a key-coded entry system, 24-hour video surveillance, and an elevator for 2nd or 3rd floor units. Our leases are a month-to-month;  however we do apply discounts for pre-payment long-term leases. Our office has a full stock of boxes and moving supplies.

COWs of Mercer Bucks is our portable storage solution, not the type of cow you have to feed every day or milk. We can deliver a COW “Container on Wheels” to your location, move it to your new location (within 2 hours of our location), or store it for you in our Buxton Barnyard. These units are great for staging your home for sale, decluttering, hiding Christmas presents, and they each have their own personality……..we have one cow that likes to play hockey, one that sings karaoke, even a police office. You could be the lucky customer that gets our BUD BUXTON COW, a custom cow graphic made to look like Bud Buxton.

Hertz of Ewing is a local edition of the Hertz Franchise. Offering cars, suv’s and vans for business or leisure use, short term or long-term rentals are available. Going on vacation and need a bigger car, don’t want to put extra miles on your lease, car going into the body shop, how about just a date night? We’ve got the right car for you.


Buxton’s Boxes U-Haul is an authorized dealer for U-Haul. In our fleet we keep cargo vans, box trucks and trailers for local in-town use. We also have trucks and trailers that can go on long distance one-way moves. With our 24/7 Truck Share you can rent a truck 24 hours a day even if we are closed and even offer a night drop for those late night or after hour returns.

We are known for our customer service and have the friendliest staff aka family around.

Buddy, one of the dogs at the Buxton Complex

Buddy is our newest recruit and has been with us since 2019. Buddy came from Puerto Rico in December 2018 and was adopted through ARF of Mercer. Buddy is a sweetheart and loves to cuddle although at times is afraid of his own shadow. He is starting to come around and wants to come make the customers smile. We are not sure of Buddy’s breed, we believe he may be a Corgi Cross, however his paperwork from Puerto Rico state he is a Chihuahua.

Kit-Kat is our sweet kitty. Kit-Kat along with 4 other kittens were born under a shed at the Garden Center located at The Buxton Complex. After trapping the kittens to give them shots and get them “fixed”, she found that the office, being heated and 24/7 free food, was a better home for her rather than the traditional outdoors of the Feral Cat world. Over the years she has become more and more friendly and even lets Marisa pick her up. Her favorite places to lay are on Marisa’s desk on top of whatever she is working on, in the cubby of the box display or in the large picture window.

Mittens, one of the cats at the Buxton Complex

Mittens and Kit-Kat are sisters, although some customers mistake Mittens to be the Mom since she is super large. As a kitten, Mittens enjoyed licking the creamer cups at the coffee station and put on a little weight. Just like humans, once you put on a little weight, it’s hard to take off. Mittens is often in the box cubbies (when she can squeeze in them), on the front counter, outside greeting customers or sleeping by the fax machine. She has since stopped licking the coffee creamer cups, but knows how to feed herself treats out of the jar.
