Home Depot Curbside Pickup Hours and Delivery Fees
Home Depot curbside pickup is free and runs from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. daily at select stores. You check in on the app, and an associate loads your car.
Regular in-store pickup works at every store during normal hours. Most orders are ready within a few hours, and Home Depot holds them for 7 days.
Delivery is free on over 2 million items. Heavy or oversized orders run from free to $55 or $79.
How Curbside Pickup Works
Curbside is an option on eligible store pickup items, and it runs only through The Home Depot app for iPhone and Android.
- Choose “Curbside Pickup” at checkout in the app.
- Wait for the “Ready for Pickup” email or text. Don’t leave home before it arrives, because the order isn’t valid for pickup until then.
- Tap the link in that message on your way to check in on the app, and bring a photo ID.
- Park in a marked curbside spot, enter the spot number in the app, and wait for an associate to bring the order out and load it.
The order is good only at the store you picked when you checked out, so double-check the store before you pay. A curbside spot at the wrong Home Depot won’t find your order.
Curbside Pickup Hours
Home Depot’s curbside pickup page gives one schedule for the whole program: 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., every day, at select stores. That’s a much shorter day than the store itself keeps.
Store pages list curbside hours separately from the store’s own, and they back the 9-to-6 rule up. The Nanuet, New York store opens 6 a.m. to 10 p.m. Monday through Saturday but runs curbside only from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., Sundays included. Nearby Mount Pleasant lists no curbside hours at all.
After 6 p.m., the in-store pickup desk is the fallback, since it follows regular store hours. Items that need assembly and big orders take longer than the usual few hours, so wait for the ready message on those.
In-Store Pickup Rules
Buy online, pick up in store works at every Home Depot, and Home Depot advertises it as free with orders ready in as soon as 2 hours. You collect at the customer service desk, or at the Pro Desk if you chose it at checkout.
- Bring a government-issued photo ID and the order number or the pickup email.
- Only the cardholder or a pickup person named at checkout can collect the order. Add that person’s name and email when you pay, and they get the pickup notice too.
- Orders wait 7 days after the ready notice. Home Depot’s pickup FAQ calls that both a maximum and a minimum, so treat day 7 as the deadline. Unclaimed orders can be canceled and refunded.
- Select grills come assembled for free when you choose store pickup, though assembly can push the order past 2 hours.
- You can cancel the whole order online from My Account if no gift card paid for it, every item comes from the same store, and nothing has been picked up yet. Otherwise, it takes a call or a text to customer support.
A price drop before pickup works in your favor. Home Depot’s pickup FAQ says that if an item costs less when you collect it than when you ordered, your original payment is automatically adjusted to the lowest available price.
Home Depot Delivery Fees
Home Depot sets the delivery fee by order size, order total, item dimensions, delivery method and ZIP code, so the cart is the only place to see your exact charge. The posted ranges look like this.
| Delivery option | Cost | Speed |
|---|---|---|
| Standard delivery | Free on 2 million+ items | Same day to 2 days |
| Same-day delivery | Free at $25+, by 4 p.m. | Same day |
| Express Delivery | Small flat fee | 2 hours or less |
| Heavy or oversized items | Free, $55 or $79 | Often 3 to 5 days |
| Major appliances | Varies by ZIP code | Next day in some areas |
Express Delivery went nationwide on August 18, 2026, according to Home Depot’s announcement, with no membership needed. The fee isn’t published. A Reviewed writer paid $7 to have a tape measure brought out mid-project, and the same piece warns that some products can carry a charge closer to $35.
Appliances follow their own rules, including a 48-hour return window. Delivery fees vary by ZIP code, haul-away of the old unit costs extra, and Home Depot says next-day appliance delivery reaches about 60% of the U.S. population on key models.
Bigger orders can also be scheduled for a set date. Home Depot’s delivery FAQ mentions premium time windows and room-of-choice delivery for many larger orders, and checkout shows whether either is offered for your order.
Ways to Pay Less for Delivery
- Push a small order past $25 before 4 p.m. if same-day delivery shows up for your ZIP code.
- Compare the delivery speeds at checkout, since the cart shows both the standard and the fastest option before you pay.
- Choose curbside or store pickup for anything that fits in your car, which costs nothing.
Pickup Versus Delivery for Heavy Loads
The $79 fee is where pickup starts to pay. Home Depot’s Load ‘N Go truck rental starts at $19 for the first 75 minutes, which covers a short round trip for most people who live near a store.
By my math, a $19 truck plus a few dollars of fuel comes to roughly a third of a $79 delivery fee. For bagged mulch, a few sheets of drywall or a boxed vanity, I’d rent the truck.
Delivery wins when the load is awkward or you’re short on hands at home. The truck needs a $150 deposit and a driver 21 or older, and nobody from the store helps you unload in your driveway.
Damaged Deliveries and Returns
Inspect a delivery while the driver is still there. Home Depot’s delivery FAQ says to note visible damage on the delivery receipt, and you may refuse the shipment.
Pickup and delivery orders return like any other purchase under Home Depot’s return policy: bring the order receipt to any store. For a missing or damaged order, text “Support” to 38698 at any hour, or call 1-800-430-3376 from 6 a.m. to 2 a.m. Eastern, within 30 days of delivery.
