Serve Home Depot in Sacramento — Same-Day Service Available

Frequently Asked Questions

Who is Home Depot’s registered agent in California?

Home Depot U.S.A., Inc.’s California registered agent is CSC (Corporation Service Company), located at 2710 Gateway Oaks Drive, Suite 150N, Sacramento, CA 95833. We serve CSC routinely — see our CSC registered agent page for full details. (Always verify the current agent on file at the California Secretary of State business search before serving — agents can change.)

Which Home Depot entity should I name in my service?

For most California lawsuits and subpoenas involving the retail stores, the correct entity is Home Depot U.S.A., Inc. However, matters involving commercial supply, logistics, or property services may involve a different subsidiary such as Home Depot Store Support, Inc. or Interline Brands, Inc. Verify the exact entity name in your court documents before serving — naming the wrong entity can result in defective service. If you’re unsure, contact us before placing your order and we’ll help confirm the correct entity for your case.

Can I serve Home Depot at a local store or corporate office instead?

The most reliable way to serve Home Depot is through their registered agent in Sacramento. California law (CCP §415.10 / §416.10) allows service at a corporate headquarters in certain circumstances, but serving at a local store, office, or retail location may not satisfy the legal requirements for service on the corporation — and risks defective service that gets thrown out. Using the registered agent avoids that risk entirely. The cost is the same either way ($85 flat for registered agent service).

How fast can you serve CSC?

Same-day in most cases. The CSC office at 2710 Gateway Oaks is open standard business hours, and we can typically pick up your documents and serve them within a few hours of receiving them. Rush jobs are no problem.

What types of legal documents do you serve on Home Depot?

Every type — subpoenas (deposition, records, and SDT), summons and complaints, wage garnishments, PAGA notices, ADA demand letters, restraining orders, and discovery subpoenas for store surveillance footage. Personal injury cases (slip-and-fall, premises liability) and PAGA/class action employment cases are the two highest-volume categories we handle for Home Depot service.

What is the price difference between registered agent service and direct store service?

Registered agent service is a flat $85 — that’s the recommended approach for almost all Home Depot service. Direct store service (when appropriate) is process serving and uses our tiered pricing: Standard $99 (5 days), Expedited $150 (3 days), Rush $175 (24 hours). For 95% of cases, registered agent service is the right choice and the cheaper option.
