Home Depot Adds Nationwide Same-Day Delivery via Instacart

Customers of The Home Depot can now get same-day delivery in as fast as one hour — including big and bulky products weighing up to 60 pounds — from nearly 2,000 stores via the retailer’s new partnership with Instacart. The nationwide expansion follows a pilot conducted earlier this year.

“Our brick-and-mortar stores are foundational to The Home Depot, and expanding our ecommerce capabilities is a key part of our ongoing efforts to deliver a seamless, interconnected experience,” said Jordan Broggi, President – Online at The Home Depot in a statement. “By supplementing our existing same-day and next-day delivery options on homedepot.com with Instacart’s fast and convenient shopper experience, we’re increasing flexibility for our customers to meet them no matter how they shop.”

To access the service, customers can use the Instacart Home Depot storefront or select The Home Depot storefront on the Instacart app. The service includes Instacart’s Big & Bulky fulfillment solution for heavy items such as grills, ladders and large boxes.

Like its competitors, Instacart has been extending its reach via a range of partnerships. Kohl’s selected Instacart as its exclusive same-day delivery partner earlier this month, soon after DoorDash began working with Home Depot competitor Lowe’s.
