752 to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital ST. LOUIS, MO (November 14, 2023) – Marcone, North America’s largest distributor of appliance repair, HVAC, plumbing, commercial kitchen and pool and spa parts, today announced the culmination of a successful philanthropic campaign that will benefit pediatric cancer research. Marcone HVAC company Munch’s Supply raised $104,752 for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, more than doubling its 2022 contribution of nearly $43,000. Both years, Munch’s Supply was the largest fundraising team in the Chicagoland area. Munch’s employees and customers came together to support St. Jude through a series of raffles, a promotional shop, a 5K run/walk, a golf outing and leadership matches. Employees were engaged through drawings for paid time off, while customers connected with the cause on the golf course. “The generosity and commitment of both our staff and client base was overwhelming,” said Steve Raimondi, Munch’s Market President for Illinois and Indiana. “It’s wonderful to see everyone working together for such a worthy cause – and having a great time doing it.” The annual St. Jude fundraising effort is an integral part of operations for Munch’s Supply, which has been donating for 10 years to the hospital��s mission of curing pediatric diseases. The company’s contributions help St. Jude fulfill its goal of treating sick children but never sending their families a bill, so that parents can focus simply on their child’s wellbeing. It currently costs more than $1.4 billion to run St. Jude each year, most of which comes from donors such as Munch’s Supply. Donations are used to research, treat and hopefully eliminate tragic diseases such as childhood cancer. Founded in 1956, Munch’s Supply was acquired in 2021 by St. Louis-based Marcone, which boasts 2,000 employees at 200 locations. “Like Munch, Marcone has a longstanding histo...

Contractor and licensing FAQs
How do I verify a contractor is licensed?
Start by asking the contractor directly for their license number and the issuing authority. Licensing is trade-specific: plumbers and HVAC mechanics are typically licensed through your state's plumbing and mechanical systems licensing board; electrical contractors are licensed through your state's electrical licensing authority; general construction contractors register with your state licensing board. You can look up license status online through your state's professional licensing bureau online or through your state's contractor registration database. Before any work begins, also ask for a current certificate of general liability insurance and workers' compensation coverage. Confirm the coverage limits are adequate for your project—at minimum $1 million in general liability. EdgeLocal profiles include ratings and direct contact info, but license verification must be confirmed directly with the contractor and the relevant state agency.
Should I get multiple quotes from contractors?
Yes—always get at least two or three quotes before hiring any contractor for significant work. Multiple quotes let you compare price, scope, materials, and timeline, and help you spot outliers: a quote significantly lower than others may indicate missing scope or cut corners, while a much higher quote may not be justified. When collecting quotes, give each contractor a clear description of the project so you can make accurate comparisons. Ask each to break out labor and materials separately when possible, and confirm what's included: demolition, permits, materials, cleanup, and warranty. Ask for estimated start dates and project duration as well. Use EdgeLocal to quickly find several rated contractors in your area so you can start the quote process without extensive additional research.
