Before you order

Know the package rules

Plain-language guidance for package limits and facility-specific restrictions.

Each facility has its own procedures

New York State rules and facility operating procedures both matter. Confirm the recipient’s facility requirements before placing an order.

Food packages and limits

The store’s Directive 4911 guidance notes that food-package limits, weight allowances and special-population restrictions can apply. Review the current Directive and the receiving facility’s procedures before ordering.
