The story
Built by a neighbor.
For the neighborhood.
Nearby Delivery is a one-person operation serving South Orange County. No warehouse. No algorithm. Just me.
Why I started this
I'm Andrew. I've lived in South Orange County my whole life. If you're reading this, there's a good chance we're within a few miles of each other right now.
A while back I wanted a cold drink and some snacks — it was 10pm on a weeknight. DoorDash wanted $8 in fees to bring me a bag of chips. The corner store had closed. Everything felt designed for someone else, somewhere else.
So I built this. A dead-simple delivery service for the people in my community who just want something nearby, tonight, without the runaround.
How it works
You order. I pack it. I drive it to your door. That's the whole model.
Right now I operate after hours, when the big guys are slow or closed. I'm not trying to compete with Amazon — I'm trying to be the person you can actually count on when it's late and you need something.
I cover Laguna Niguel, Mission Viejo, Aliso Viejo, and Rancho Santa Margarita. If you're just outside my zone, join the waitlist and I'll expand when the time is right.
What I care about
- Reliability over scale.I'd rather do 20 deliveries really well than 200 okay ones.
- Always cold.Every drink arrives chilled — no upsells, no surprises. That's just the standard.
- Honest pricing. The price you see is the price you pay, plus a small delivery fee. No surprise charges.
- Your neighborhood first. Every dollar you spend here stays local — not in a corporate headquarters two states away.
