Schedule Your Food Lion Delivery

  1. 1

    Place & pay for your pickup order

    Order on the store’s website and pay in full.

  2. 2

    Tell the store someone’s collecting

    Most are happy to — just ask if they’ll release your order to a courier, and what they need at pickup.

  3. 3

    Request delivery when it’s ready

    Schedule below once the store says it’s ready for pickup, then track it live to your door.

Grocery

Groceries paid for and waiting in the To Go bay, and no realistic window to go pick them up today.

Order and pay through Food Lion first, then request a delivery on this page once the store marks it ready. A hopper collects the order and brings it to the address you give. You pay the shelf price with no markups, MVP savings apply as usual, and the trip comes with live GPS tracking, SMS updates, and a photo when it lands.

This is the run that covers someone else as often as it covers you — a parent in another town who cannot drive to the store, or a household stuck at home with a sick kid. Confirm your specific Food Lion allows third-party pickup before scheduling, and mention frozen or chilled items when you request so the trip gets planned around them.

FAQ

Common Questions About Food Lion Delivery

Yes — UniHop makes it easy to get same-day or scheduled delivery from Food Lion. Whether you're shopping for yourself or sending a gift, place an in-store pickup order and a hopper brings it right to your doorstep.
  1. Place an in-store pickup order on the Food Lion website (foodlion.com) and coordinate any special order details with their team.
  2. Confirm with your specific store location that they allow third-party courier pickup.
  3. Make sure the order is fully paid and ready for pickup — if a driver arrives before the store can release it, a cancellation fee may apply.
  4. When the order is ready, request a delivery on this page.
  5. A hopper picks up your Food Lion order and delivers it to your door, with live tracking the whole way.
Call the specific location and ask three things: whether they'll release a paid order to a courier collecting on your behalf, what they need at pickup (usually the order number or pickup code, sometimes the collector's name), and whether they'll flag it as ready for pickup rather than still processing. Most stores are fine with it, but policies vary by location even within one chain, so it's worth the call — if a driver arrives and the store won't release the order, a cancellation fee may apply.
Food Lion deliveries cost $14.99, with no item upcharges and no service fees — you pay exactly what the store charges for your items. Deliveries over 15 miles add $1 per mile, and oversize or special-handling items have different rates. The order form shows your exact price before you book.
For ASAP requests, a driver is dispatched within minutes and heads to the store once your order is ready. Delivery time mostly depends on the distance between the store and your door. You can also schedule pickup for a specific time.
Yes. Every delivery includes real-time GPS tracking, SMS updates, and a photo confirmation on arrival. Live chat support is available from 5 AM to midnight, seven days a week, and orders are accepted 24/7/365.
UniHop is an independent delivery service and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Food Lion. You set up the delivery — similar to sending a friend to pick up an order on your behalf.
Yes. Build and pay for the To Go order online, pick a pickup window, and request the delivery here once the store confirms it is ready. Tell the store a third-party courier is collecting so the pickup spot expects someone other than you.
Yes. The order is placed and paid on your own MVP account before a driver is dispatched, so card prices and loaded deals come off exactly as they would on any order you collected yourself.
Yes. Put their address as the drop-off and add a contact number for them when you request. It is a common way to cover a family member who cannot get to the store, and they get the same tracking updates and arrival photo.

What Shoppers Say About Their Deliveries

★★★★★
I recently ordered a cake, and the delivery service exceeded my expectations! Arthur, the delivery man, went above and beyond to ensure my cake arrived in perfect condition. He kept two A/C vents blowing on the cake throughout the journey, ensuring it stayed cool and pristine. The cake was delivered on time, and Arthur's professionalism and attention to detail were truly impressive.

Easy to order, vegan option (not lacking in flavor or presentation), same day, prompt delivery, and communication was on point. The card delivered with the order was hand-written, which made it that much better! Many thanks and I will be ordering again!

Loved the constant updates sent on the day the cake was to arrive. And the delivery driver was exceptional. Gave instructions and wished my mom a happy birthday for her special day.

Excellent service, from start to finish! The self-serve send-to-a-friend was a breeze, though help was at hand if needed. Pickup and delivery were smooth and timely, as were communications during both. Highly recommended!
