The Coronavirus (COVID-19) Rundown
Hand Sanitizer Kits- Now With Face Masks
We are working on acquiring supplies, like hand sanitizer, face masks, and gloves, and are distributing these items to couriers as quickly as we can.
We have reached out by email to let couriers know that kits are available to ensure that these supplies get to the couriers who need them most.
If you have not yet ordered your hand sanitizer kit, please search your inbox for an email with “Hand Sanitizer” in the title and follow the instructions in that email to get your kit shipped to you.
If you have recently been activated, or have recently started completing deliveries after not working in the past month, we will be reaching out to you in the days ahead via email so that you can order your sanitizer kit.
Thank you for your patience as we work to help all couriers get access to these supplies.
What’s More…
Special Delivery Promotion!
Occasionally we team up with restaurant partners to run special delivery promotions to our diners to encourage them to place more orders using Caviar. Get ready for the possibility of more delivery opportunities this week from the following restaurant:
- From Tuesday, 4/14, until Tuesday, 4/21, we are offering a diner promo with Elephant Sushi at 1916 Hyde Street!
That means diners will pay less on every one of their orders for an entire week!
The last time we ran a similar delivery promo to our diners we experienced a large increase in order demand from the restaurants in the promotion.
If you’re interested in being offered as many delivery opportunities as possible, you can go online in a delivery hot zone during the peak times of lunch (10-2) and dinner (5-9).
Pickups At Restaurants
Merchants have begun updating pickup protocols to help keep pickups as low-contact as possible. In order to help ensure smooth and safe pickups, merchants may provide any new pick up instructions in the courier app.
The staff at Super Duper would like you to know that they have an occupancy maximum at all of their locations. If the number of people inside of one of the locations listed below is more than the number allowed, please wait outside and social distance until people leave so that you can enter.
- Super Duper Castro - 6 people Max Occupancy
- Super Duper Chestnut- 8 people Max Occupancy
- Super Duper Metreon - 12 people Max Occupancy
- Super Duper 98 Mission - 8 people Max Occupancy
- Super Duper Kearny - 6 people Max Occupancy
Please pay special attention to these notes, as they may change frequently. If a restaurant appears closed, be sure to check for a pick up window or the drive through (if applicable).

Courier Pro Tip Video Contest: Last Call!
Time is running out to send us your videos for round 3 of our courier pro tip video submission contest!
We want to know: What equipment do you use to make sure you’re most prepared to make a delivery that makes restaurants and diners happy?
The best video will be featured to the national courier audience and the video’s creator will win a $500 bonus.
Just in case sharing your wisdom for the betterment of courierkind is not enough motivation… every courier who submits a video will also be entered into a raffle to win $100.
The best video will be selected based on a few criteria:
- How well did you share your knowledge with other couriers?
- How much did you make us laugh?
- How creatively did you rep your city?
We’ve included submission guidelines below. Click the button below to submit your video.
Video Guidelines
Here are some guidelines. All of them must be followed in order for your video to be considered. In other words, if you don’t follow one of these guidelines, your video will be rejected.
- Time limit: your video must be under 60 seconds.
- Equipment: anything goes! Just keep it no budget (we recommend using your smartphone camera.)
- Video formats accepted: .mov and .mp4.
- Try your best to have good sound. Record in a quiet environment – or if you’re on the road then talk extra loud and clear. Speaking of being on the road: we will not accept any video submissions of couriers who are actively walking, biking, scooting, or driving – for your own safety, and the safety of others.
- Be funny. Show us your personality. Show us your city!
- Don’t do anything you wouldn’t want your grandma to see. You can be funny and also still represent yourself respectfully on camera.
- Videos must be submitted by 11:59 PM PST on Thursday, 4/16/2020.
You may submit as many videos as you want, but each courier will only receive one entry to the raffle. So even if you submit 100 videos, you still get one raffle entry.
We look forward to seeing your videos!
