Let me deliver some good news... about delivery services

Knowing your essentials are just a click away means fewer worries and more time for crossword puzzles and grandkid FaceTime calls.

Fewer errands mean fewer chances for falls.  Navigating parking lots, uneven sidewalks, and crowded stores can be hazardous.  Stay in the safety of your home and have what you need delivered.


Weather-proofing your routine.  Rain, snow, and heat waves pose extra risks— using a delivery service means you can avoid venturing out in unsafe conditions.


No more lugging heavy bags.  You don't have to strain your back lifting a 30-pound bag of dog food.  Deliver services bring what you need right to your front door.


What you need most - right when you need it.  If you are tired or not feeling your best but still need some necessary supplies, you don't have to run that errand yourself - a delivery service can be a true lifesaver, delivering food, medicine and more, right when you need it the most.

Mom and Pop stores have been making special home deliveries for decades with national brands like Dominos Pizza using the "30-minutes or less" pizza delivery guarantee as a cornerstone for their branding starting in the 1970s.  Now ordering groceries and household items for delivery is easier than ever!
