Fox News’ Michael Hollan published the “delivery do’s and don’ts” to ensure safety precautions are taken for those who use food delivery services. “As more and more people across the U.S. are preparing to stay in for the time being,” Hollan writes, “some may be asking if it’s safe to get food delivered to their house.” CNET reported that food delivery services such as Doordash, Uber Eats, Grubhub and Postmates have continued to operate.

For a little over a year, Uber has been operating its UberRUSH delivery service as a pilot program in New York City. Today it’s making it an official part of the company, and expanding the courier service to Chicago and San Francisco, allowing customers to receive deliveries from local businesses. UberRUSH competes directly with Postmates, delivering items like groceries, take-out food, and house supplies, albeit with a much larger fleet of cars on the road. But unlike Postmates, when you open the Uber app, you won’t be flooded with a number of businesses that can deliver something to you.
