To start, we will serve the areas of Portland Proper plus Beaverton. Specific neighborhoods include: Pearl District, Downtown, Goose Hollow, Alberta, Mississippi, Hollywood, Belmont, Hawthorne, Laurelhurst, Overlook, Aloha, and Beaverton. A map of the coverage area can be found here: www.instacart.com/locations

“Portland is a young, vibrant city with a tech savvy culture,” said Portland City Launcher Bill Babeaux. “Portland also had the highest number of user requests per capita of major U.S. cities currently not served by Instacart, so we knew people wanted the service here. We’re excited to bring the city its first one-hour grocery delivery service and help residents enjoy the beautiful summer weather instead of waiting in line at the grocery store.”

Customers who order on launch day will receive a free month of deliveries via Instacart Express.
