Best grocery delivery for small orders?

[sazzifrazz]

We are staying a week at BCV and I want to order a case of water and some small things like snacks and quick breakfast items. Is there a company thats better for small orders?

This is our first DVC stay...will they deliver to the main bell hop?

How big is the fridge in a studio? TY!!!

We always use garden grocer when we head down to our DVC

The fridge in a studio is a "college" fridge -- tiny freezer, fits under the counter, etc. Don't buy anything frozen and don't buy a lot of large containers that need to be refrigerated.

Any delivery service should deliver to bell services, yes. Generally, after I've checked in, I've then checked in with bell services to let them know I'm there and to bring up any delivered groceries and/or luggage that they might have.

Since all you want are snacks and small items, why not take a walk over to the Hess station across from the BW. It's about a 10-15 minute walk and they have a decent selection. We do it every trip to get snacks, beer, soda, etc. If you don't want to carry your items, I read some posters use a small rolling duffle bag to put everything in.

When I've used them, Garden Grocer has always delivered to Bell Services first thing in the morning, no hassles.

GG has a menu which many find helpful, but a $40 minimum.

I had trouble with WeGoShop not delivering to Bell Services, but wanting to deliver directly to me. I didn't have any alcohol or tobacco, so I was surprised when I got a phone call along with a scolding from them. Many people have no problems with them, but as with everything YMMV.

Not sure what the delivery fees and gratuities for each are running this year.

the DVC studio fridges (not regular resort fridges) are actually a bit bigger than many dorm or cube fridges. we've had 6+ frozen dinners/pot pies, and at least 2 frozen water bottles in them. there's not a lot of room, but certainly enough for smaller items.
btw, soda and/or water pitchers fit in the main section simply by adjusting/removing the wire fridge shelves, and the door has more room for small items (plus a wine bottle holder).

Thanks for clarifying the size -- it's been a long time since I've been in a studio and I knew the freezers were small, but not "how" small (or big!) I figured, though, it would be better to tell the OP they were smaller than they might be. Just in case. ;-)

But this is info that I can use, as I'll be in a studio in November for 10 nights. So I appreciate the more accurate measurement than what I had in my mind.

The freezers are different sizes. We have had them as big as decribed above and small enough to only put a small box af breakfast sandwiches.

We have used wegoshop.com many times in the past and I recommend them. They do not have a minimum order amount like Garden Grocer does. Also they do not mark up each item like Garden Grocer. I believe their delivery fees are higher, so I think cost is a wash between the two.
I prefer typing my own exact list, not shopping a "virtual aisle" like at Garden Grocer.
I have used them 7 times and never had the problem described by a PP. I am sorry that happened. Something must have been off that day.
However I prefer to have my order delivered directly to my Villa and not Bell Services. I like to go over the order with the shopper/delivery person and insure everything is correct. I schedule my delivery for late afternoon/early evening and it works perfectly. Wegoshop.com gives you a 30 minute delivery window and they have always been right on time. I believe that Garden Grocer's delivery window is 2 hours. I wouldn't like that at all.
Good Luck

I used garden grocer as well when I traveled solo for a week. I didn't need a lot of food delivered since I was travelling alone plus I wanted to eat out mostly. I do believe that there is a minimum amount you need to spend.
