Delivery Fees Are Calculated By Your Grocery Total
There's a lot involved in making just one grocery delivery.
We do not just run out the door, go to the grocery store, buy your groceries and deliver them to you. We have to check our email daily. Confirm your order, check delivery directions, credit card payments, print the shopping list, get to the grocery store safely, shop the aisles to make sure we get exactly what you ordered, pay for your groceries, make your delivery and return home or make another delivery. Time consumed in the grocery store making sure we get what you want can take an hour or more. |
There is also a great deal of physical energy involved, especially when delivering large orders; sometimes up as many as 4 flights of stairs with groceries of a quantity that may require as many as ten trips up those stairs when you think of items such as 12 packs of soda, water, other beverages, and bulky paper items such as toilet paper, paper towels, diapers, etc. and we put all groceries away no matter the size of the order.
Customers order groceries for family members and friends who do not know about the delivery and sometimes they are not home. So we struggle to make the delivery. Some gate codes do not work and we have no phone number. Sometime we need to make substitutions because each grocery store does not carry the same grocery items. |
We built our website ourselves, which saved us thousands but cost us hundreds of hours building and re-working the site. Pay hosting fees. Update the website as new grocery items are added or deleted from the grocery store. Weekly trips to the grocery store to check the prices, availability and make any updates. Paper work alone is very time consuming, let alone keeping accurate records for our income tax preparing, which we do ourselves.
We check our email account daily during our business hours and sometimes after hours. Time spent on the phone and emailing explanations of website functions. Scheduling so that you can be served at the time YOU choose. |
We have to keep our vehicle in working order. The wear and tear alone is expensive. Windshield wiper blades need replacing, car washes, gasoline, oil changes, tire rotations and replacements. One tire alone can cost over $100.00. Car insurance, tags and licensing have to be up to date.
Seasonal traffic can delay our delivery, let alone the time consumed in traffic, risk of having an accident or getting our windshield hit by a stone. If there is an accident, we are not going to make your delivery on time, so we leave plenty of time for everything we have to deal with to get your groceries delivered to you on time. |
