The Home Depot (NYSE: HD) announced the nationwide rollout of its Express Delivery service, offering delivery in three hours or less for a flat fee with no subscription or membership required.

The service uses more than 2,000 U.S. stores as local fulfillment hubs, delivering thousands of products across categories including plumbing, electrical, hardware, paint, tools, and general project supplies to residential and job-site addresses.

Express Delivery is available to both professional contractors and do-it-yourself customers. Delivery eligibility is visible on product pages and at checkout. The company said it expects to offer faster delivery speeds in the months ahead.

"Customers expect products to be available when and where they need them, and Express Delivery helps us meet that expectation with a fast, reliable solution," said Jordan Broggi, EVP of Interconnected Retail.

The Home Depot also offers free same-day delivery on orders of $25 or more placed by 4 p.m., next-day major appliance delivery reaching 60% of the U.S. population on key items, and an expanded delivery center network. The company said more than 65% of in-stock parcel products are delivered same day or next day, and approximately 55% of in-stock large orders arrive within two days.
