Orders will include a message in Pickup Instructions saying that curbside pickup has been requested. That way you’ll know which orders will need to be brought out.

Curbside pickup best practices

• Provide clear pickup location details in the pickup instructions (ex. Meet at the side door on Park Street).
• Create signage indicating where the pickup area is at your restaurant (ex. Add signs that say “Curbside Pick up here”).
  • If you have a designated curbside pickup zone, please add details.
• Add an on-site phone number. Be sure to have the phone available at all times as customers and drivers will call that phone number upon arrival.
• Ensure employees are wearing personal protective gear to keep themselves and the food safe. Gloves are recommended when handling bags and follow proper hand washing procedures.
• When receiving a call, make sure employees ask for clear instructions (i.e. type of car, color of car, etc.) to ensure the correct match customers and driver with the correct order.
