Trader Joe’s Delivery Is Available on Doordash
Trader Joe’s doesn’t offer delivery, but a wide number of items are available on Doordash. You can choose from a variety of items and just need to confirm if its available in your area.
Amazon acts like they offer delivery, but it’s only a few items. If you want Trader Joe’s Peanut Butter Cups for about triple the normal price, then you might be good on Amazon.
Trader Joe’s will likely never offer a delivery service since it goes against the general vibe of the store. The goal of TJs is to offer low prices and a simplified shopping experience. They only offer their store brand and have limited options for each item. I’ve also included some thoughts for the next trip you end up taking.
Trader Joe’s Hours
Most Trader Joe’s stores have hours of operation from 8AM-9PM. The peak times are in the afternoon and right after work during the week.
On weekend, the store is generally completely packed and so just be ready if you need to make a weekend shopping run.

If your schedule allows for it, the late morning is usually not very crowded, but it that doesn’t work then the 8-9PM window is often the best time to move through the store.
Stuffed Animal Mascots in Each Store
If you have kids in tow, make sure to look for the stuffed animal mascot that each store has hidden around the aisles. Kids get a free sucker when they find the mascot.
This is a store that take the time to hide a mascot every day and so this is another example of why Trader Joe’s delivery doesn’t fit the vibe of the store. TJ’s wants you to come in and have the experience of grocery shopping.
So many amazing snacks for you to walk by
Another reason that Trader Joe’s Delivery doesn’t exist is that TJs knows that they have the best snacks around. They 100% want hungry people walking with all those yummy cookies and crackers to cruise past.
Trader Joe’s Gift Cards – Also only available in the store
A great gift for friends and family is a Trader Joe’s Gift Card, but in keeping with the theme of this article they are only in the store.
Conclusion
Trader Joe’s delivery is available on Doordash for a more thorough shopping run. Amazon has a few select items that are most likely resale. Trader Joe’s really wants you to come by the store. TJ’s fights to keep prices down and the shopping experience simple. Head into your local store, find the mascot and enjoy the quirky experience that is Trader Joe’s.
