Grocery order pickup and delivery.
Your prepaid grocery order, collected once it’s ready.
This service starts with an order you’ve already placed and paid for. Send the store’s collection instructions, the number of bags or boxes and the delivery location. I’ll check the contents, handling and route before deciding whether the trip is suitable.
Ask about this pickupBefore the pickup.
Please include:
- A prepaid order and permission for your driver to collect
- Bag or box quantities, contents and approximate weight
- Advance notice of any chilled or frozen goods
It needs to fit inside my SUV and be safe for me to carry on my own. A few photos, the measurements and a note about any stairs help me plan the pickup.
Confirm temperature needs before the pickup.
Chilled or frozen items require suitable cold storage and a travel plan that maintains their temperature. They are accepted only when those needs can be met and have been agreed in advance. This is order pickup and delivery; shopping, choosing substitutions and checkout are not included.
A few things to know.
Will you shop for the groceries?
No. Please place and pay for a ready-to-collect order with the store first.
Can you carry chilled or frozen food?
Only by prior agreement when suitable cold storage and timing can be confirmed. Mention those items before booking; a normal SUV trip is not refrigerated transport.
Can you collect a large grocery order?
Send the quantities, sizes and weights. I’ll check total space, one-person carrying and the handoff before agreeing.

Back to your pickup detailsHow much will it cost?
It depends on the drive, what you’re picking up, and how much lifting is involved. I’ll give you a price before you decide. Let me know about stairs or a tight pickup window.
Can you pick up today?
Same-day pickups depend on my availability and the seller’s pickup window. A little notice helps me fit you in. Your pickup is confirmed once you and I have agreed on a time and price.
Do I pay the seller directly?
Yes. Pay the seller for the item and let them know Porchbound will pick it up. You’ll pay me separately for the delivery, at the agreed price.
Can you pick up my item?
Send a photo or listing and rough measurements, and I’ll check whether I can carry it safely and fit it in the car. I work on my own, so I can’t take anything that needs two people to lift. Mention any stairs at either end, too.
