I can't make my pickup window or the cook is late

Your options, best first

#1 Do it yourself

Message early

  1. Check the pickup window and address.
  2. Message the cook as soon as you know you will be late.
  3. Ask for a new time and whether food can be kept safe.
  4. Confirm the change in the chat.

Safety: Ask how the food will be kept safe.

Stop and call a pro if: The food will sit more than a couple of hours.

#2 Instant price check and quote request
