You're wondering if you can get your groceries from Kroger delivered right to your front door. It's a common and very convenient way to shop, but not all locations have the service. The good news is, checking for delivery availability is a simple process that you can do from the comfort of your own home.
Let's walk through this step-by-step to make sure you're getting the most accurate information. Get ready to ditch that long grocery store line!
Step 1: Get on the Grid—Start with the Kroger Website or App
First things first, you'll need to head over to the digital hub for all things Kroger.
On your computer: Open your web browser and go to the official Kroger website at
www.kroger.com
.On your phone or tablet: Launch the Kroger app. If you don't have it, download it from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store. The app is a fantastic tool for managing your shopping, including delivery orders.
Once you're on the homepage, you'll immediately see an option to select your shopping method and location. This is the key to unlocking the delivery information you're looking for.
QuickTip: Stop and think when you learn something new.

Step 2: Enter Your Location to Unlock Your Options
This is where the magic happens. Kroger needs to know where you are to show you the services available to you.
Look for a "Shop" or "Ways to Shop" button or menu. This is often located in the top-left corner of the website or the main menu of the app.
You'll be prompted to enter your zip code or a full address. While a zip code is usually enough to start, entering your full address is the most precise way to determine delivery eligibility.
Make sure you're signed in to your Kroger account. If you don't have one, it's a good idea to create one. This will help you save your preferred address and make future checks even faster.
Once you've entered your location, the site or app will automatically refresh to show you the services available in your area.
Step 3: Choose "Delivery" and See What Pops Up
After your location is set, you'll see a screen that gives you options for how you want to receive your groceries. This is where you'll find the all-important "Delivery" option.
QuickTip: Reread tricky spots right away.
Select "Delivery" as your preferred way to shop. The website or app will then filter all the products and services to show you what's available for delivery.
If you see a list of delivery time slots and fees, congratulations! This means Kroger delivers to your address. You can now start adding items to your cart and proceed with your order.
If you don't see "Delivery" as an option, or if you get a message saying something like "Delivery is not available in your area," then unfortunately, direct Kroger delivery is not an option for you at this time.
Don't lose hope just yet! Even if Kroger's own delivery service isn't available, they often partner with third-party services.
Sub-heading: Checking for Third-Party Delivery Options
Kroger partners with services like Instacart to fulfill delivery orders. Here's how to check for those options:
Go back to the "Ways to Shop" menu.
Look for any mention of third-party delivery services such as Instacart. The platform will often present this as an alternative if their own "Kroger Delivery" service isn't available.
The shopping process is largely the same, but you might be redirected to the partner's platform to complete your order. Be aware that fees and tipping policies might be different with these partners.
Step 4: Start Shopping and Finalize Your Order
QuickTip: Focus on one line if it feels important.
Now that you've confirmed delivery is an option for you, it's time to shop!
Browse the digital aisles just as you would in a physical store. Add items to your cart.
Be mindful of the time slots. Delivery times can fill up quickly, especially during peak hours or holidays. It's best to reserve a time slot as soon as you know when you want your groceries.
Review your cart before checking out. You'll be able to see any associated fees, including delivery and service fees. If you're a Boost member, you may have different fee structures.
By following these simple steps, you can quickly and accurately determine if Kroger delivers to your address and get your groceries on their way!
