Instacart makes it easy to find the items you want from your local Costco warehouse and have them delivered right to your door.   

Steps to place an order

    1. Find your item. You can search for a specific item you’re looking for or browse by department. We also make recommendations based on what you bought before, or what’s popular in your area.
    2. Add items to your cart. Spot something you like? Add it to your cart by tapping or clicking +Add or Add to Cart. You can also adjust the item quantity using the + or - buttons.
    3. Review your cart. You can check what’s in your cart anytime while you’re shopping by clicking or tapping the green Cart button. You can see the next available delivery time and the amount needed to reach any order minimums. You can also view your item total, adjust quantities, or remove items from your cart.
    4. Checkout. When you’re ready to check out, visit your cart and tap or click the green Checkout button. You’ll be asked to add a delivery address and your payment information. Then, go ahead and place your order! Your groceries will be on their way in no time.  

Can’t find an item?

Use the search box on the website. Sometimes, searching for 1 keyword (for example, searching for “watermelon” instead of “watermelon slices”) helps.
