Here’s how we chose the best grocery delivery services:
Fees and membership options. All grocery delivery services have some fees involved, but we tried to choose those that offered cost-saving memberships for people who order grocery delivery regularly.
Product availability. There are many small grocery delivery services that offer a very narrow selection of groceries, but the ones on this list offer a wide selection of many different types of grocery items — comparable to what you may find at your local grocery store.
Quality and reliability. All of these services are large, popular, and widely used. They also provide groceries at a variety of quality levels to meet the needs of various households.
Service area. While there are many small grocers across the country that offer delivery, we focused on nationwide and regional services for this article. Although not all of the services on this list are available nationwide, they are all available in multiple states or large parts of the country.
