Northern Territory Community Pick up locations for Priority Assistance customers
Woolworths has opened 700 Community Pick up locations for Priority Assistance customers to place an order online for someone to pick up on their behalf. Community Pick up is a contactless service and orders will be packed into reusable bags for collection.
How to place a Community Pick up order
Community Pick up is available to vulnerable customers who have applied for Priority Assistance. They can place an order for Pick up at 700 locations for a community member (including friends & family) to pick up the order on their behalf.
For the ongoing safety of our customers and team, all orders will be packed into reusable bags for contactless Pick up. For all Pick up orders, please remember to follow the required procedures for social distancing.
- Check you’re eligible, and register for Priority Assistance here (already registered? Go ahead and skip this step)
- Login and select a Pick up location and time before starting your shop (this will help us show the products available at that location)
- Add the items you’d like to purchase to your cart and checkout
- Share the details of your Pick up order (the location, date and time) and your order number with the person who’ll be picking up your order (forwarding your order confirmation email may be easiest – just make sure it’s to someone you know and trust, because it contains your personal information. You should also remind them not to share the email with anyone else without your permission)
- Make sure the person picking up your order arrives at your chosen location in the booked window with your order number, and remind them to follow the required procedure for social distancing outlined in your confirmation email.
