Expansion for Menards ‘We Pull’ program given green light
13 May 2019
Extra lane will give home improvement store express lane for online orders
Menards can start its expansion now that the Elk River City Council gave its approval to a permit that will allow the retailer to begin construction.
The council adopted a conditional-use permit unanimously and with no discussion or comments from the public. Council member Matthew Westgaard said he had no problems with the application. Neither did the other council members.
Menards’ website offers online shopping and a choice of in-store pickup with the option of “We Pull,” where store employees pull the items in a customer’s order, or “You Pull,” where customers pick their purchased items themselves with a state-issued ID and the ticket Menards emails customers who choose the online purchasing option.
