During a cutscene that is available starting on [[Fall]] 2, Year 1, a special orders board is installed in front of [[Lewis]]'s house. This board has larger orders that would not be normally found on the Help Wanted board. Unlike Help Wanted requests, these orders are automatically filled without speaking to the the requestor. Unlike normal "Help Wanted" requests, the special orders cannot be cancelled from the individual player quest listing, and time must be allowed to run out. Additionally, unless specified, the resources needed for special orders must be collected after the special order has been accepted.

Special orders have different timeframes, varying from 1 to 28 days. A new special order can be accepted each week, even if another one is still ongoing; multiple special orders can be active at the same time. New special orders become available on Monday and their allotted time starts decreasing as days go by regardless of whether they have been accepted by the player. Hence, if the player starts a special order with a maximum timeframe of 7 days on Wednesday, the time given for completion will only be 5 days. The table below indicates maximum timeframes.

Special orders have different timeframes, varying from 1 to 28 days. The next special order can be accepted a week after its predecessor, whether you have completed it or not -- you can have more than one active at a time.
   
When doing a special order that requires shipping items, the player can ship the remaining items on the final day. The progress bar only tracks items shipped on previous days and this can create the impression that items shipped need to be shipped before the last day, but they do not.

The table below states whether special orders are repeatable after having been successfully completed. All special orders will show up again if attempted and failed.
