Looters Leave More Food Deserts In Black Communities

… they will deliver to your area. The downside to these services is that they are all in high demand right now, and you may have difficulty securing a delivery time. Many have started hiring more employees in order to meet higher demands, but deliveries still book up quickly, and services may appear fully booked for as far out as a week or two. But if you check often, you may be able to grab a spot when it opens up. Keep in mind, that many say time slots can open up if you check early in the morning.

Another thing to remember is that you have a lot of other delivery options, not just the four mentioned above. Also look at Mercato and large supermarket chains such as Albertsons and Kroger, if those are in your area. If you’re an Amazon Prime member, Whole Foods and Amazon Fresh will deliver to certain zip codes. Or you can try searching GroceryDelivery.org for more local options. (Note, though, that some of the listings may be out of date.)

When you do get a slot, remember to treat the person who delivers your groceries with patience and kindness, and tip as generously as you can. Kindness goes a long way when it comes to people handling your food.
