Ace Hardware delivers on-demand with DoorDash
The world’s largest hardware cooperative is teaming up with a major online delivery platform.
Ace Hardware is offering on-demand delivery of home improvement essentials at more than 4,000 locally owned Ace locations across the U.S. in a new partnership with DoorDash.
Ace is the first and largest hardware co-op on DoorDash, which is serving as the retailer’s exclusive delivery partner. Since 2019, the retailer had been offering a proprietary online delivery service called “Buy Online, Deliver from Store” as a feature of its e-commerce site, at participating locations around the country.

"Ace is always looking for new ways to serve our customers better and faster, and now with DoorDash, we’re creating more opportunities to take convenience to a new level," said Bill Kiss, head of digital at Ace Hardware. "Together, we’re combining Ace’s extensive assortment of top-quality products with fast and reliable on-demand delivery that DoorDash is known for. Now our customers can get what they need quickly from their local Ace store, without leaving home or stopping in the middle of a project."
Customers can shop thousands of hardware, paint, tools, and garden products directly via the Ace storefront on the DoorDash app or website. Orders are fulfilled in real-time by DoorDash drivers who pick up and deliver items filled from neighborhood Ace stores.
Ace Hardware stores are available on the DoorDash DashPass paid membership program that offers $0 delivery fees and reduced service fees on eligible orders. Through Tuesday, Sep. 30, 2025, DashPass members can get 40% off orders with a subtotal of $30 or more (up to $15 off) and non-DashPass customers can save 25% off orders with a subtotal of $30 or more (up to $10 off) using special promo codes.
"We’re thrilled to be Ace’s exclusive delivery partner, giving consumers quick access to essential home improvement supplies from thousands of independently owned stores nationwide," said Mike Goldblatt, VP of grocery & retail partnerships at DoorDash. "This partnership reflects our ongoing mission to empower local economies by supporting small businesses and helping Ace build on their ongoing commitments in digital innovation and fulfillment."
Chief Ace rivals Home Depot and Lowe’s also have existing third-party delivery partnerships. Home Depot provides delivery via DoorDash and Uber Eats, as well as Instacart and the Walmart GoLocal service.
Meanwhile, Lowe’s also partners with DoorDash, as well as Target subsidiary Shipt and same-day delivery platforms OneRail and Instacart.
