Before You Order From NetGrocer Etc.

I haven't got any actual confirmation but two different boards (including a poster on the AOL board that says they checked with OKW) are reporting that Disney is now charging for package deliveries to the resorts. $40 per 100 lbs. or less is the amount quoted. It may be because so many people started doing this that they felt the need to charge. (I know many hotels have package charges for boxes arriving for conferences.)

Just an FYI -- if someone here gets confirmation of this new policy please let us know.

I saw this announcement posted too on a newsgroup site. I was going to try this too for our upcoming May vacation at OKW! Oh well, guess its back to stopping at super wall mart on the way to OKW from the airport!! $40. is quite a steep charge, but if they are receiving a lot of packages for guests every day, I guess I can understand the need to charge.

Have a wonderful day!

I called OKW last week, spoke with Anna, and she assured me that there is no charge for packages. So, I sent my package last week. Hope Anna was right!

I also saw a post on resorts charging for packages (after I had already ordered from NetGrocer!) However, we were just at Dixie Landings (February 1-5th) and did not get charged.

I went to the Mouse's mouth. Here is my response from Member Services:

Dear Michael,
In response to your request, as to our knowledge and after calling Old Key
West and Boardwalk, Disney Vacation Club members are not charged for have
packages delivered to the resort also any packages can not be perishable.

Thank you and have a Disney day.

Just back from 4 nights at BWV. Had package delivered by Netgrocer.com. No charge for delivery.
