What is Google Express?

Mountain View / CA. (ginc) Google Express helps you get your shopping done fast, Google says on express.google.com. You can shop a variety of popular stores including Walmart (coming soon), Costco and Whole Foods Market on the app, the Express website, or by voice. The service is available across the continental United States (not including Alaska and Hawaii).

You’ll get free delivery when you meet the per-store minimum – 25 USD or 35 USD with most stores. Free delivery means no shipping and service fees, though separate fees apply when ordering from Costco without a Costco membership. Orders must meet store minimums before taxes and fees in select delivery areas. In most cases delivery times range from same-day to 3-day delivery: This depends on your area, availability and the store you’re shopping from. With stores arranging their own deliveries, delivery times can range from 1 day to a week or more. With these stores, delivery fees may also vary.

Voice orders with Google Home

You can order household items, pantry staples and more on Google Home, one item per order. For now you can order things that cost between 4 USD and 100 USD.

During the promo period (ending in August 2017) you’ll see no service fees when ordering with Google Home. If you place an order for a Costco item without a Costco membership, you won’t see Costco access fees during this time either.

Set up your address and payment method in the Google Home app, and manage your order directly with Google Express. You can also set up separate accounts with members of your household.

The stores on express.google.com

Google works with popular stores and delivery companies – OnTrac, FedEx, UPS, TForce Final Mile (formerly Dynamex) and Lasership – to arrange delivery around the U.S. You’ll see delivery speeds and stores available in your area by going to google.com/express or the Express app.

Stores arranging their own deliveries

Some stores available on Google Express arrange their own packing and delivery directly from warehouse, and handle their own returns. You’ll always see available delivery dates or date ranges at checkout.
