Vons switches to third-party grocery delivery
Starting Saturday, Feb. 27, Vons grocery stores will no longer employ its own delivery drivers and instead use thirdparty apps such as Instacart and DoorDash. The move was influenced partly because of the high demand for grocery delivery due to the pandemic. Many grocery stores in Southern California had already made the switch to third-party apps to deliver food.
Delivery services will remain relatively the same. You can order your groceries through the Instacart app (available for download in the App Store for Iphone and the Google Play Store for Androids) or by going to www.delivery.vons.com, which will take you through the form to sign up for Instacart, after which you will be able to order groceries as usual. Be aware that due to Instacart’s policy, you must have a valid drivers licsence or other form of ID to give to the person delievering your groceries.
There is a $3.99 delivery fee for each purchase, or you can pay a monthly fee of $9.99 or a yearly fee of $99 to get free delivery on orders over $35.
Delivery hours will be between 8 a.m.– 10 p.m., seven days a week.
