DoorDash, the delivery platform best known for delivering takeout from restaurants, has announced it would be working with Macy's to offer same-day and next-day delivery for the department store. The service will be available at 500 Macy's and Bloomingdale's stores across the U.S. Orders placed by noon at Macy's and by 1 p.m. at Bloomingdale's are eligible for same-day delivery, while orders placed after that will be delivered by DoorDash's driver fleet the next day. There are no minimum order requirements or time slots for the service, which is being run through DoorDash Drive, the company's last-mile delivery platform. It can be accessed on Macy's website and app. Being able to offer shoppers convenient options will likely be key to this holiday season, which is looking to be unlike any other before due to disruptions caused by the coronavirus pandemic. The announcement comes as the retail industry gets the holiday shopping season started, weeks ahead of its usual schedule.
