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.

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."
