I believe if you go to www.instacart.com and enter your zip code you can find
out if it serves your area.

Hello all,
I have been using Instacart for about three years now.
It is a great tool to have and I have only had a couple of instances where
I have not received everything that I ordered or the item was wrong.
I have found that the customer service of the app is wonderful. If you’re
missing items or something is wrong, they will refund you it just takes a
little time. The app is great.

I’ve used Instacart for two or three years now and love it. In spite of
its quirks, the IOS app is very easy to use, and one thing that I really like
is that the app remembers items that I’ve purchased in the past. So when I’m
ready to stock up, I go into the My Items list, flick through the items, find
an item that I want and with a single-finger flick up, it’s added to the cart.
If I don’t watch out I’ll end up with several hundred dollars worth of stuff in
the cart. In the Explore tab, I can do the equivalent of shopping by aisle, or
I can use the search field at the top of the screen. There is a quirk which
makes it seem like text isn’t being entered, but it really is, and to invoke
the search, I’ll double-tap the Search button at the lower right corner of the
screen. The Results list behaves much like the My Items list.
In the cart, I can review everything in there and remove items with a
single-finger flick down or increase quantities by flicking up.
Checkout is relatively easy, with picker items that help with delivery
scheduling. If there’s alcohol in my order, I have to put in my birth date and
agree that I won’t be drunk at delivery time, which is okay.
When checkout is complete, I get a list of everything in the order and
again, I can add new items that I may have forgotten, remove items or change
quantities.
It’s important to allow Instacart to send me notifications so I know who
who’s shopping and am informed of any possible substitutions that I need to
approve.
When the delivery person arrives I get a text and a phone call so that I
can direct him/her to where he or she can park and load up my cart. The
delivery person has almost always gone to my apartment with me and placed bags
on my kitchen counter or dining room table.
It’s very rare that I’ve had missing or incorrect items.
All in all my experiences have been very positive and I recommend the
service and the app highly.

Hello Everyone,
Earlier this week, I signed up for the InstaCart delivery service, via
the
iOS app.
I must say, I was extremely impressed with the results.
While it took me quite some time to learn how to navigate the app, once
I
completed my order, the food items I purchased were delivered within 90
minutes.
Not bad, not bad, at all.
