Self-collection
Picking up your order yourself from the vendor’s collection point instead of having it delivered. Collection options are shown on each product.
Why it matters
Collecting yourself can save on delivery fees and lets you choose the time, but you are responsible for getting the item home safely.
🇸🇬 In Singapore
In Singapore, self-collection often means picking up from a void deck, condo guardhouse, home address or shop counter. Our heat and sudden rain make an insulated bag or a cab worthwhile for cakes and chilled food.
Tips before you buy
- Note the collection address and time window before you leave.
- Bring a flat surface or a car for cakes and large items.
- Keep food chilled if you have a long journey.
