Food Resources and Delivery Services

FOOD RESOURCE MAP IN MAPLEWOOD AND SOUTH ORANGE

Food Delivery
Whether its for groceries or for fully cooked meals, sometimes people need help getting food delivered directly to their home.  Here are local options:

By Phone:
Ashley Market-South Orange Avenue
Free delivery for orders $25 or more.
7 Days a week, 10am – 6 pm
Call (973) 762-5200 x1 to place an order 

Online:
When ordering online from a grocery store, you create an account that you can use for all future purchases.  The online order might not be coming from the nearest store (Kings, Stop & Shop, Whole Foods) so might have different prices than if you went to the store in person. There is usually a minimum order and a delivery fee. To make up for the delivery fee, online shopping services offer special discounts, free products or savings.   With any of the online deliveries, you can choose a time frame in which you want the groceries delivered.
