Uber Eats is partnering with DeliverZero to launch a pilot program in New York City that offers customers reusable container options when ordering food delivery from more than 80 participating restaurants. Customers can order as usual via mobile app or online and pay a $1 fee to add reusable packaging to their order. DeliverZero will send the customers a text message with instructions for returning the reusable containers to a participating store or scheduling a DeliverZero pickup at no extra charge.
This is Uber Eats’ first reuse pilot in the U.S., but it has similar programs globally. Earlier this month, Uber Eats launched a reusable container food delivery program in London with partner Again.
