Grocery shopping
Send a weekly grocery list or a few missing ingredients: produce, pantry staples, snacks, drinks and other groceries. Include brands, sizes, quantities and product preferences so we know exactly what to look for.

Personal shopping & grocery delivery in NYC.
Tell us what you need and where to shop. We pick out the items on your approved list, check with you about changes and bring your purchases to your home or office. From the weekly grocery run to an essential you need today, let us handle the trip.
Call or email to arrange your shopping trip. Store hours, stock and delivery availability apply.
Built around your stops
Groceries, essentials and the things on your list.
Request a shop at CVS, Trader Joe’s, Whole Foods Market or another store you choose. Share the exact branch and the items you want. Dispatch confirms store hours, shopping availability, the delivery plan and your quote before the trip.
Household & personal essentials
Request everyday store items such as toiletries, cleaning supplies, paper goods, baby-care products and other household essentials. Photos or product links help us match your preferred item and size.
Gifts, retail & office supplies
Arrange shopping for gifts, clothing, stationery or office pantry supplies. Include colors, sizes, models and any gift-bag request. Multiple stores and larger purchases can be discussed with dispatch.
How your shopping order works
From your shopping list to your doorstep.
- 01
Send your request
Call or email dispatch with your list, store address, delivery address and preferred time. Include product photos or links where an exact match matters.
- 02
Confirm the plan
Agree on the purchase budget, shopping fee, delivery charge and payment arrangements before shopping begins. Let us know whether substitutions are allowed and how to reach you.
- 03
We shop your list
We look for the products and quantities you approved. If an item is unavailable or the price exceeds your budget, we contact you before making a change. No unapproved substitutions.
- 04
Receive your delivery
We bring your purchases to the agreed handoff point and provide the store receipt. Final purchase costs are reconciled against that receipt, with service charges shown separately.
A practical planning checklist
Clear pricing before we shop.
Your total has three parts: the items purchased, a shopping fee and a delivery fee. Shopping time, the number of stores, route distance, load size and weight, and any extra handling help determine the quote. Purchase funding and service payment are arranged before shopping; any change to the agreed budget needs your approval.

Know what to expect.
Can you go grocery shopping for me?
Yes. Send your grocery list and preferred store, including a specific CVS, Trader Joe’s, Whole Foods Market or another location. We confirm availability and the quote before shopping. Product stock and prices depend on the store.
What if something on my list is out of stock?
Tell us whether you prefer no substitutions or would like us to contact you with alternatives. We will not replace an item without your approval. If we cannot reach you, an unavailable item is left out rather than replaced without permission.
Can you shop at more than one store?
Yes—request all stores when you contact dispatch. Each additional store can affect shopping time, distance and delivery timing, so the route and charges are agreed before the trip.
Can my order include chilled or frozen groceries?
Tell dispatch about chilled, frozen or other temperature-sensitive items before booking. Suitable insulated handling, the shopping route and a prompt handoff must be confirmed for those items. Arrange for someone to receive the groceries when they arrive.
Do you deliver to apartments and offices?
Yes. Provide the apartment or suite number, entry instructions, receiving contact and any stairs or elevator details. Agree on a door, lobby, concierge desk or office handoff when arranging the service.
How do I place an order or arrange a regular grocery run?
Call 212-996-2042 or email contact@nycrapidcourier.com with your shopping details. Dispatch can discuss a one-time request or a recurring shopping schedule. A requested delivery time is confirmed after store hours and route availability are checked.
Are all store items included?
This service covers everyday groceries, retail goods and household essentials. Prescription collection, alcohol, tobacco and other restricted items are not included in this shopping service. Describe unusual, bulky or fragile items before booking.
Are you affiliated with the stores listed?
NYC Rapid Courier is an independent shopping and delivery service. Store names describe places customers may ask us to shop; they do not indicate a partnership or endorsement.
