Not in Australia. No hot bags for any orders including Pizza. It drives me nuts, I never order really now. It’s not cold enough for the food to be stone cold, but it’s like warm at best. Not enjoyable at all.
Using a standard supermarket freezer bag makes a HUGE difference.
I don’t understand how it’s not a hard enforced requirement by doordash, Uber eats, etc. It’s nuts. I have seen it more common in other countries where it gets colder. They’ll have branded delivery bags. Though more often they are also bike couriers rather than cars.
Especially since they so often drop two orders now.
Food safety laws don't impact the end customer. You can legally take ham out of your fridge, leave it in the hot place for 24 hours and eat it. You just shouldn't.
Does this still apply? I used to use DoorDash a lot, and I remember in the early years, all the dashers had DoorDash-branded bags. As the years went on, it seemed a lot of dashers no longer had any bag or just didn't use it. Maybe it was the latter, but it also feels like one of those price cutting measures that a successful startup starts making. Like their customer service which went from fantastic to terrible to not even talking to anyone, but getting refunds denied for no particular reason.
Reminds me of my old employer. I was subcontracted to work on the controls network at a wastewater treatment plant and the PPE they issued me seemed like it was intended for elementary school students. Everything I needed was at the hardware store for around $15 total so it's not like they even saved that much money.
