As the 2020 pandemic soared, so did the customer demand for contactless buying online and pickup in-store orders. To meet our customer needs while doing the right things for the safety of our community, Home Depot launched the Curbside Pickup service. In our speed to market, we realized that we may have missed some vital customer and associate experiences. In addition, Business has noticed a decrease in customers using the Curbside service. There has also been a noticeable increase in associate pain points involving Curbside orders. Associates fulfilling these Curbside orders are asking for support to better handle the customer demand for the larger orders.
