When people first learn about Door To Door, their primary questions often concern pricing, store choices, and membership options. Customers frequently ask: "Do you mark up item prices?", "How do I send you my shopping list?", "Can you pick up from multiple local shops in one go?", and "How does the monthly membership work?".
Do you mark up item prices?

How do I send you my shopping list?
Ordering is simple and convenient. You can text your shopping list or a basket screenshot directly to us via WhatsApp. This allows for quick and easy communication for all your shopping needs.
Can you pick up from multiple local shops in one go?
Absolutely! Multi-store convenience is a key feature of our service. We can combine items from various shops, such as a local butcher, an artisan bakery, and a major supermarket, into a single, seamless doorstep delivery.
What concerns do people often have before using your service?
Before choosing Door To Door, customers often express concerns about quality control for fresh items, potential hidden markups, and the coordination of multi-store orders. We address these by ensuring careful selection, transparent pricing, and efficient logistics.
How do you ensure quality control on fresh items?
We understand the importance of fresh produce, meat, and delicate items. Our personal shoppers hand-pick each item as if they were choosing for their own family, meticulously checking expiry dates and selecting only the freshest available products.
Are there any hidden markups on pricing?
No, there are no hidden markups. Unlike many major delivery apps, we guarantee you pay exact store shelf prices. We provide original paper receipts with every delivery to ensure complete transparency.
How does multi-store coordination work?
We excel in multi-store logistics. Our shoppers are highly experienced in combining items from different independent shops—like a local butcher, a baker, and a major supermarket—into one smooth trip, ensuring all your specific shopping habits are met without confusion or delay.
Are there specific details about how your service works that customers frequently ask about?
Beyond pricing and how to send lists, customers often inquire about specific operational details. These include how we handle out-of-stock items, our delivery flexibility and timing, multi-store logistics, and accepted payment methods.
What happens if an item is out-of-stock?
If a requested item or brand is out-of-stock, our shopper will message you immediately from the aisle via WhatsApp to confirm a suitable substitution, ensuring you always have control over your order.
How flexible are your delivery times?
We offer flexible delivery options. Customers often ask how far in advance they need to book a run or if they can schedule regular recurring slots through our monthly membership to secure their preferred delivery times. We aim to accommodate your schedule as much as possible.
What payment methods do you accept?
Customers often ask about settling the cost for their goods and delivery service. We provide clear information on payment methods once the shop is completed and the original receipt presented, ensuring a hassle-free transaction.
How does the monthly membership work?
Our monthly membership allows you to pay a fixed monthly rate for regular personal shopping and delivery services. This often includes benefits like priority scheduling and discounted delivery fees, ideal for locking in your preferred slots.
Can I schedule regular recurring slots?
Yes, with our monthly membership, you can often schedule regular recurring slots, helping you lock in your preferred delivery times and ensure consistent service that fits your routine.
Is there a limit on what types of stores or items can be included in a single trip?
While we strive for maximum flexibility, we recommend discussing specific types of stores or highly specialised items with us beforehand to ensure we can meet your needs efficiently and effectively within a single trip.
What if I need heavy lifting or special assistance?
