Parcel Shipping orders are shipped directly to your location. Orders received by noon EST on business days (Monday through Friday, excluding holidays) are packed and shipped the same day. Items ordered after noon EST will ship the following business day. All orders will be processed within 24 hours.

We currently offer three parcel shipping options:

  • Standard: Your order is delivered to your shipping address three to seven business days after processing.
  • 2 Business Day: Your order is delivered to your shipping address two business days after it has been processed. For orders placed during the weekend, allow one business day for processing and two business days for delivery.
  • Next Business Day: Your order is delivered to your shipping address the next business day after it has been processed. For orders placed during the weekend, allow one business day for processing and one business day for delivery. Items ordered after noon EST will not ship until the following business day.

Lowe's Truck Delivery

If the item you wish to purchase is available at your local Lowe's store, you can choose to have it delivered to your home by a Lowe's truck. This option is helpful with items too large or heavy for you to transport on your own. Lowe's Truck Delivery rates are determined by the delivery address's distance from the store, rather than by the item's weight. For more information, visit our Lowe's Home Delivery page.

Factory-Direct Shipping

Factory-Direct Shipping allows us to offer more variety and value with the same level of service as if your purchase was shipped directly by Lowe's. Items delivered via Factory-Direct Shipping are sent straight from the factory to your location at no extra expense. Expedited shipping is not available for this option.

Shipping Rates

Lowe's offers a variety of shipping methods. When you begin the checkout process, you'll be able to choose from our range of delivery options to find the one that works best for you. The shipping method and level of service you choose, as well as your order's total weight, will determine your shipping rates. If you decide to return your order, shipping charges are not refundable.

Multiple Packages

If your order contains more than one item, Lowe's may expedite delivery by shipping your order from multiple locations. As a result, you may receive multiple packages. There will be no additional shipping costs. You may see more than one charge for shipping on your credit card statement, but the total of these charges will not exceed the total shipping fee calculated on your receipt.
