Home delivered shopping and food

Grocery delivery options

Some households are unable to get groceries delivered in a timely manner due to demand.

If you are not in quarantine or isolation, and can go to a supermarket to shop, you can do so under the lockdown rules. Try to shop in our local region, and get in and out as quickly as possible.

If you are shopping for a family member or friend, please ensure you drop the groceries off without coming into contact with them.

If you need to order home delivery, there is a range of options to consider through other grocers and independent supermarkets as well as the major supermarkets.

Support our local businesses

Barton Grocer – 48 Macquarie Street Barton  – same day deliveries for orders placed before 1300, Monday to Friday

Eighty/Twenty Food – 23 Brisbane Avenue Barton – deliveries from 0800-1400, seven days/week 

Coles home delivery

Emergency food relief

If you are experiencing hardship and cannot afford to feed your family or yourself during the lockdown in the ACT you can request a food and essential item delivery to your front door for free.

A volunteer will deliver your order to your front door. These volunteers are not permitted to enter your home.

If you are unable to collect the delivery from your front door you will need to arrange for a carer or approved visitor to assist you.

A limited number of pantry items are available through this service. Fresh produce is not available at this time.

This is an urgent relief service for those most in need. The ACT Government will monitor the demand for this service over the lockdown period to see if further food relief is required.

To place an order for emergency food and essential items and to find out what items are available call Volunteering ACT on 1800 43 11 33, open Monday to Friday between 9 am and 5 pm.

If the phone is not answered, please leave a message and someone will return your call.

Chemist

Delivery is available from Capital Chemist, Green Square Kingston if you are in quarantine or feeling unwell.  Please contact Capital Chemist at 6295 9146 or kingston@capitalchemist.com.au to make the necessary arrangements with a Capital Chemist staff member.
