Same-Day Pickups, Deliveries, Return To Glastonbury Supermarket

GLASTONBURY, CT — Stop & Shop announced Tuesday that same-day pickup and delivery services are being added again to its Oak Street store in Glastonbury.

The Glastonbury store is at 55 Oak St.

Customers can place an order on Peapod.com, head to the store, and have a Stop & Shop associate load their groceries right into their car, store officals said.

Glastonbury Store Manager Ernie Maggi also shared, "We hope that reinstating this service at our store will provide a seamless and safe shopping experience for our customers."

To use the service, customers can visit www.peapod.com and select "pick-up." Customers can then head to the store at their chosen pick-up time, park in a designated pick-up spot, then call a phone number to let the store team know they have arrived. Stop & Shop team members will then deliver their order right to their car.

Stop & Shop has altered its pickup policies with associate and customer safety in mind. Customers are being asked to have their trunk or door open for associates to place groceries directly in their vehicle. Customers are also encouraged to wear masks and limit the number of people in their vehicle, when possible, to "better enable social distancing."

Stop & Shop associates will be wearing masks while working and "are following all of the same sanitizing precautions as its in-store associates," including surface sanitization and regular hand washing every 20-30 minutes.

Due to customer demand, the number of orders that can be fulfilled throughout the day will be limited temporarily, officials said. Supply may also be limited for specific items that are on national allocation and may not be available for purchase, they added.

Two-item purchase limits are also still in place for certain high-demand items.
