How to Make Money With Grocery Delivery
Delivering groceries is a viable way to make money while helping others. The elderly, people who are bedridden, those who don't drive and those who are just too busy are among the people who could use some help getting their groceries. Often they will pay to have someone take their list to the store, purchase the items and deliver them to their house. If your customers live within walking distance of a store, you might not even need a car to deliver groceries, though in that case you would need a cart.

Delivering Groceries for Money

1
Advertise your service and search for clients. You can post or distribute fliers or post online (at CraigsList, for example) detailing your ability to deliver groceries and how much you charge. You can also try to network through word of mouth.

Visit elderly neighbors or people who you think might appreciate or need your help. Be upfront and let them know how much you charge, or ask them what they feel is fair for your service.

Once you have one or more clients you should set up a schedule with each that states when you can receive the shopping list and when the client wants the groceries delivered. Some clients may expect the same groceries delivered weekly. You will need to discuss each client's needs and keep yourself organized so you can meet their expectations.
