Frequently Asked Questions About Your Store

Can I get Express Delivery through my store?

Express Delivery is a same-day service that delivers products and job site supplies directly from your store to your front door. Orders must be placed by 4 p.m. local time to ensure delivery. Eligibility depends on driver availability, local stock, and item size. Set your local store in The Home Depot app or online to see if it's available. Qualifying items will show an Express Delivery tag in your cart and during checkout (excludes aerosols, bulk orders, and custom mixed paint). Express Delivery orders may be subject to additional delivery charges.

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

Skelly fans will be excited to learn 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 Halloween is over, keep your tall and terrifying decor ready for next year in our decor storage bag and 170-gallon storage tote designed just for these products. Remember to check out our new Halloween animatronics as well!

How can I prepare my home for cooling temps?

Be certain your home is set for cooler autumn weather by replacing faulty parts of your hardscaping. If moisture gets in the crevices, you might be looking at trouble. Check cinder blocks and bricks for cracks, and ensure indoor ceiling tiles are free from missing pieces. On the outside of your home, examine metal roofs or roof shingles for damage or rust that can let water leak in. Keep gutters functional and clear to keep rain overflow from backing up into your home when storms arrive. Lastly, vinyl siding and chimney caps should be swapped out if they're badly weathered.

Do you offer moving boxes?

Make your move easier by picking up an assortment 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 to your next location safely. Remember to check out our rental moving trucks if you need those, too.

Do I need a generator?

Enjoy power in your home even after severe weather takes it out. We've got the options you need when searching for a generator for sale. Inverter generators are cleaner and quieter than traditional portable generators. They'll adjust to the required load, making less noise when they create less power. When searching for generators, keep in mind that portable generators cost less and generate more electricity than inverter generators, but they're louder and heavier. Always run your generators outside, away from doors and windows, for safety purposes.

Why should I get a doorbell camera?

Enjoy privacy, safety, and peace of mind with a wired or wireless doorbell camera. Stop peeking through a window or peephole when you can watch human or animal visitors in real time. Some doorbell cameras even let you talk to whoever is on your doorstep via your phone, a useful interaction to scare off potential porch pirates or talk to delivery people. Many cameras integrate with your smart home app or hub to give you flexible and easy accessibility. Save video clips for future reference and worry less with more control.

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

Drop by our Kids Workshop from 9–noon on November 7th, 2026. Sign up for free to build a colorful dump truck toy. You provide the creativity and we provide the materials. Team up with your kids to make this fun 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.

        Employees Refuse To Greet or Help Customers
        An employee told me the item I was looking for was on aisle 9. I looked up and down aisle 9 and didn't see it. The female employee on that aisle totally ignored me. So I asked her for help. She called for help over the radio. I stood there for at least 10 or 15 minutes and no one came. She called again and then left the aisle. After a while a male employee comes to the aisle, doesn't acknowledge me and gets a box off a high shelf and then he leaves. I finally see an employee walking by at the end of the aisle. He calls the male employee that was just on the aisle. Is there a reason that your employees refuse to greet customers and help them?

          Excellent Customer Service!
          I went in to purchase some hardware, building material, and a few snacks. Sonia made sure i was taken care of right away. She was very professional and kind. Her photo should be in the dictionary as the definition of "a true leader." She's a proven asset to the company. Thank you, Sonia!

                  Every time I come to shop here I’m always greeted by the lovely ladies at customer service like Kelsie and P’laur, and Larissa and Jody!!! and any department I go to, there’s always an associate there to help me with whatever I need. After I’m done shopping I’m always excited to come back to such a welcoming environment. Shoutout to my favorite people like Micheal and Lupe!!!
