Frequently Asked Questions About Your Store

Does my store offer Express Delivery?

Select supplies can arrive lightning-fast with Express Delivery, a same-day service that delivers straight from your store to your doorstep. Orders must be placed by 4 p.m. local time to ensure delivery. Eligibility depends on item size, driver availability, and local stock. Check if you can get Express Delivery when you set your local store online or in The Home Depot app. Qualifying items will show an Express Delivery tag both in your shopping cart and at checkout (excludes aerosols, bulk orders, and custom mixed paint). Additional delivery charges may apply for Express Delivery orders.

Is there a Halloween skeleton you can control with an app?

Skelly fans will be excited to know that our classic 12-foot Skelly with LCD eyes is back, but now there's an upgraded 12-foot app Skelly and a smaller 6.5-foot app-controlled Skelly for convenient scaring. When the season is over, keep your tall and terrifying decor ready for next year in our Halloween decor storage bag and 170-gallon storage tote designed just for this. Remember to check out our new Halloween animatronics as well!

Is there a lumber sale for Black Friday 2026?

Hurry to your Encinitas store from 11/4/26–12/2/26 for the best Black Friday sales. When your loved one is dedicated to home improvement, sometimes holiday gifts are utilitarian and sensible. Get ahead of the next project by shopping Black Friday deals on building materials and the practical parts that make your home functional and safe. Save 15% on online windows and doors, as well as 30% off select composites and lumber. Plan for wiring and lighting projects by saving 15% on select electrical items. We even offer up to 10% off select water heaters, so you can replace your old water heater at your leisure. Prepare for projects on the horizon with our incredible Black Friday 2026 deals. If you're not sure of the specifics, a gift card fits any project.

What home repairs should I make during the fall?

Be confident your home is set for cooler autumn weather by repairing or replacing faulty parts of your home. If moisture gets inside the cracks, you might be dealing with mold. Check cinder blocks and brick for cracks, and ensure indoor ceiling tiles are free from water damage. On the outside of your home, examine metal roofs or roof shingles for damage that may let water in. Keep gutters clear of debris to prevent water overflow from seeping beneath your shingles when storms arrive. Lastly, vinyl siding and chimney caps should be changed out if they're in poor condition.

Do you carry small moving boxes?

Make moving or storage easier by picking up a variety of moving boxes. We've got the sizes you've been searching for, including specialty ones like wardrobe and TV boxes. Cushion your items with bubble cushion and moving blankets to ensure your belongings make it safely. Remember to check out our rental moving trucks if you need those as well.

Should I get a portable generator or an inverter generator?

Having a generator means you're prepared year-round for whatever circumstances Mother Nature throws at you. Whether dealing with tornados or severe thunderstorms, a portable generator lets you enjoy electricity when the elements take it out. When searching for generators for sale, keep in mind that inverter generators are more expensive than portable generators, but they're also quieter and cleaner. Always run your generators outdoors, away from windows and doors, for safety purposes.

Do you carry wireless or wired doorbell cameras?

Enjoy peace of mind, privacy, and safety with a wired or wireless doorbell camera. Stop peeking through an adjacent window when you can watch human or animal visitors in real time. Some doorbell cameras even let you chat remotely via your phone, a useful interaction to scare off would-be porch pirates or talk to delivery people. Many cameras integrate with your smart home hub or app to give you easy accessibility. Save video clips for future reference as it suits you.

What's the project at The Home Depot Kids Workshop in November 2026?

Head to the Kids Workshop from 9–noon on November 7th. Give your children a taste of the joy of building with this cool pint-sized dump truck toy. Assembling this colorful toy is a great way to encourage fine motor skills, listening abilities, and creativity. Team up with your kids to make this quick craft while supplies last.

Yes, you can pick up Curbside Orders from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. with The Home Depot app. Select "Curbside with The Home Depot App" at checkout when shopping eligible Store Pickup items.

Incredible Customer Service!
Go see Dan in the Garden Center for advice on plants, he's incredibly knowledgeable and will help you choose the perfect specimen for your yard/home. Want customer service from someone who can problem-solve? See Shea. She single-handedly turned a delivery issue quickly, professionally, and all with a smile. My favorite HD store in SD and I tithe weekly to HD in other locations near my home. The customer service and selection of plants are way beyond other HD locations. Don't walk, run, they will help you find what you need. Thank you all so much.

    Manager John Is Angry and Poor at Customer Service
    I purchased an outdoor umbrella that was clearly advertised as $249, but rang up $349. Renee at returns/help couldn't do anything to help me saying that it must be mis-marked and people move signs all the time. She called a manager (John) to handle the situation. From the onset John was not pleasant and spoke very patronizingly to me. John pointed out that the tiny SKU written on the bottom left corner of the sign didn't match the SKU of the box I'd purchased. I pointed out that all of the other boxes in the stacks had varying SKUs (none matched the sign's SKU) AND that the sign notes that the $249 price is for "ASSTD. SKUs". I calmly asked him to explain what "ASSTD. SKUs" meant. Hopefully clarifying if I was wrong for reading it as "Assorted SKUs". Additionally, all of the information on the sign is the exact information that is on each of the boxes of varying SKU'd umbrellas. At this point he ripped the sign down and said it's no longer priced at that and told me to go return the umbrella that I purchased. He said that there was absolutely no way he could do anything about the $100 price discrepancy and he stormed off.

      Better selection of cordless tools than other Home Depot’s. Also fliers promoting tools on my wish list.

            A really knowledgeable bunch!
            I have always been impressed by how knowledgeable the store employees are about the location of the products in the store. Quite often I don't know where to locate some product I want to buy, so I stop the first employee I see and ask him or her where to find that item. Sure enough, the employee not only names the aisle where the the product is, but also WHERE on the aisle it is. And sometimes I am even led to the item by the employee!

              Great Employees
              I had a great experience with the Home Depot in ENCINITAS. I asked for help and David was so very helpful. He’s knowledgeable and made me feel like I was important. He also helped me decide between a few options with the project I was building his expertise helped me decide what to buy and I’m assured that all of the pieces will fit together because he measured and he cut. thank you David.

                Truck rental, awful process
                Truck rental process was awful, took almost an hour and required over-the-top metrics that you don't see in rental car companies or even US customs enforcement. Stupid waste of time to rent a simple pickup truck. Home Depot staff was completely unsympathetic to my timelines. I will not use home Depot again for the service

                  Not so helpful Customer Service in specialty areas
                  I went to Encinitas HD to ask/purchase a new or custom sliding back door or options for a new back door. The specialist in the area would not get off his chair to assist nor did he offer any help in providing other options that HD could offer I have been in that store for many items as I just bought a new home and need to upgrade I have had a wonderful experience with buying new kitchen appliances with a super woman in that area. His man should just go home and sit in his lounger He’s not there to actually work. What a disappointment

                    We love home depot
                    Jake helped us pick out a fridge this past weekend. He was very friendly and went above and beyond to assist us. Something we expected to be very expensive and challenging to decide on was super easy, and we feel great about our purchase. Every employee we interacted with was great, especially the checkers at the garden section, who made my son feel extra special by giving him a sticker.
