Members can place a grocery order anytime at their convenience. Delivery windows are determined by shopper availability and you will see the Next Delivery time listed on the Shipt app when you create your order. Deliveries can be scheduled for as little as 1 hour after you place your order and our shoppers are available whenever the store is open. For some stores that means you can get delivery 24 hours a day!
You’ll be able to choose between drop-off and in-person delivery on the checkout page when placing an order. Regardless of your delivery preference, you’ll get an email and text when your order has arrived.
Please note that select store locations do not carry single-use bags. If this is the case, your shopper will purchase bags at checkout and you will see the cost reflected on your emailed receipt.
If you would not like to purchase bags, please let your shopper know that you'd prefer to have the order delivered bagless by leaving a note under "Delivery Instructions" when placing your order. If you do opt into a bagless delivery, we encourage you to be home to receive the order or leave a receptacle out such as a box or cooler that your shopper can leave items in.
Tips are not required but are greatly appreciated. If you choose to tip, you can add a tip when placing your order by choosing a preselected or custom amount. You may also tip in cash or within the app after you receive your delivery.
No matter which method you choose, 100% of your tip will go to the shopper. Show your shopper some love and appreciation by tipping any amount of your choice!
