# Home Depot CA
Home Depot CA supports **guest checkout only**, making it a straightforward and reliable module for retail restocks and in-stock pickups. It’s primarily used for tools, hardware, seasonal items, and high-demand restocks that often appear without warning. *** ### **Preliminary Checklist** Before setting up tasks on Home Depot CA, make sure you have everything below prepared: * **Profiles** > Create and save your checkout [profiles](https://guides.stellaraio.com/stellar/navigating-stellaraio/what-is-the-profiles-tab/how-do-i-add-a-profile) under the **Profiles tab** in Stellar. These contain your billing, shipping and payment info. * **Proxies** > - **ISP proxies** – Recommended for monitoring tasks. > - **Residential proxies** – Recommended for checkout tasks. Save both proxy groups under the **Proxies tab** in Stellar. > * If you're looking for proxies, check out [Stella Proxies](https://guides.stellaraio.com/stellar/getting-started-with-stellaraio/stella-proxies) for high quality ISP and Residential proxies * **Cook Group Access** > Optional but recommended. Your [cook group](https://guides.stellaraio.com/stellar/getting-started-with-stellaraio/cook-groups) can help you find product URLs, SKUs and early restock alerts. * **Test Task** > Before big drops, run a **test task** on a random in stock product to confirm your profiles, proxies and delays are functioning correctly. *** ### Supported Modes ### Monitor Mode

Monitors restocks separately from your checkout tasks.
When the monitored SKU restocks, the monitor task pings any checkout tasks with the same SKU.

### Shipping Mode

Used for shipping fulfillment (guest checkout only).
If your default store has no stock, adjust your Zip Code or Store ID.
