  • Select Drive Up as the fulfillment option when placing an order through the Target app
  • Target will notify you when your order is ready—usually within one to two hours
  • Hit the “I’m on the Way” button when you’re ready to head to the store
  • Park in a designated Drive Up spot, and within two minutes a team member will have the order at your car, ready to be loaded in the trunk or backseat

In addition to Florida and Texas, Drive Up is also now available at select Target stores in Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, Oklahoma and South Carolina.

First launched last fall in the Minneapolis area, Target's Drive Up service will be available at nearly 1,000 stores across the nation by the end of 2018.
