Does Costco Deliver Appliances Everywhere?

Costco can deliver appliances to most areas. The best way to check if your area or appliance qualifies for home delivery is by adding the appliance to your cart and plugging in your zip code. You will then get confirmation if the item can be sent directly to your home.

For in-store purchases, you will need a large enough vehicle to bring the appliance home or hire a third-party delivery company to get the appliance home for you. Some customers have even rented a U-Haul to get their desired appliance back home from the warehouse. Costco will hold your purchase until the end of the day, so make sure you have made plans before buying a new appliance in-store. 

What Is In-Home Delivery?

Costco offers in-home delivery so that large appliances can be delivered to your home. Products that apply include fridges, freezers, washers, dryers, dishwashers, stoves, ovens, cooking ranges, built-in microwaves, projection TVs, grills, patio furniture sets, and mattresses. 

You can also enjoy installation services from the delivery service, as long as you select this option when buying the appliance. This service applies to dishwashers, washing machines, ranges, dryers, and stoves. 

These options do not apply to 2-day delivery, which is another service that Costco offers for non-perishable or household items you may need in a pinch. You can enjoy this feature separately through the Costco app or Costco.com.

How to Be Ready for Delivery

While new appliances can be exciting, the best way to ensure a smooth delivery process is to prepare your home. Listed below are some of Costco’s helpful tips: 

  • Measure the space and check the appliance dimensions to make sure it will fit properly.
  • Follow the path before appliance delivery so you can remove any obstacles in the way.
  • Measure any tight spaces in your home and confirm the appliance can fit through all doorways and hallways before delivery.

Time Windows for Costco Deliveries

With some delivery companies, you may end up waiting hours before a truck pulls up outside your home. With Costco, you can have a concrete timeframe thanks to their Costco Logistics team. After you receive a call from Logistics, there will be a two-hour delivery window for your appliance to come. Due to high demand, you cannot change this two-hour window once it is set. 

Shipping dates for appliances are usually around a week. However, according to Costco.com, “dates may change based on the delivery address, availability, and if multiple items are shipped.” Keep this in mind when browsing appliance availability online. If you purchase an appliance that qualifies for Costco Direct, then you can expect your appliance a little sooner (between 3-5 business days), which is included in the cost.

Does Costco Deliver Large Items?

Costco does deliver large items including appliances. There are several options to choose from for delivery. These include curbside or threshold delivery (options depend on the item being purchased). Curbside delivery means that items will be left at the curb or end of your driveway, with extra details located in this pamphlet. On the other hand, threshold delivery will bring your purchase inside the home to its final destination.

Getting new appliances shouldn’t be a hassle. With Costco, it doesn’t have to be thanks to their top-notch customer service and numerous delivery methods. If you need a new appliance or want to delve into Costco’s delivery options, take these tips with you the next time you shop with the warehouse.
