Verification notes
Home improvement retailer. Online-order help, price matches and price adjustments go through Customer Solutions (phone or live chat on homedepot.com). Major appliances have a separate Customer Solutions line and a 48-hour return window. The "In-Store Return Exceptions", "Online Return Exceptions" and "Return Policy Exceptions" sections named on the return policy page did not render in the browser on 2026-10-12, so those exceptions are not recorded here.
