Nearly 30,000 items can be ordered for delivery in as fast as an hour, freeing up customers to spend more time sprucing up, decorating and making holiday memories this fall. Lowe's is one of the first retailers on the Instacart App to roll out same-day and scheduled delivery for large items, up to 3x3x5 feet and 60 pounds. Without ever having to leave the yard, customers can order small Halloween inflatables, fire pit essentials and even small portable grills to be delivered from the store to their door.
Customers can also purchase those just-right holiday gifts such as smart home products, hand tools and electronics, along with fall accessories like pillows, blankets and outdoor string lights, all available for delivery in as fast as an hour from their local store.
"Lowe's knows how much this time of year means to our customers. Whether they are rounding out their Halloween decorating or getting started on holiday prep and gifting, we're able to offer more products, more convenience and more value for customers as we continue to improve the shopping experience in-store and online," said Mike Shady, Lowe's senior vice president of online. "We're excited to open up this new fulfillment offering across the U.S. for customers to shop for all of their project needs."
Lowe's piloted same-day delivery via Instacart in select markets in February and is Instacart's leading national home improvement partner. Lowe's now offers same-day delivery from stores across all 50 states and Washington D.C. In addition to the expanded assortment of household and home and garden essentials, from grass seed to garden hoses, Lowe's is one of the only retailers today that sells non-mixed paint on the Instacart App, offering non-tinted paint and assorted paint supplies for customers.
"As the seasons change, we know customers are thinking about how to get their homes ready for fall," said Chris Rogers, chief business officer at Instacart. "We're excited to offer Lowe's wide variety of home improvement essentials for delivery across the country so customers can get exactly what they need, seamlessly. Connecting customers to their favorite retailers is at the core of what we do, and we're proud to help Lowe's expand their e-commerce offering to serve their customers in a new way."
