Finding the time to go back to school shopping can be a challenge for parents around the country, but luckily there's a new way to get all the notebooks and pencils needed for the first day of school without having to leave your house.
Uber and Office Depot announced on Monday that they have teamed up to bring all of the school and office essentials to customers throughout the United States.
Customers can now shop at over 900 Office Depot and OfficeMax stores throughout the country by using the Uber Eats app and have all of their school or office supplies delivered to their homes or work.
Those who are Uber One members, Uber's subscription service, even get the luxury of a $0 delivery fee, in addition to a 5% discount on Office Depot orders when they spend a minimum of $15.
Customers will have access to nearly every item they would need in a pinch, whether it be a new set of colored pencils or a box of printer paper.
"We know this is the busiest time of year for many, with back to school and even going back to the office, at Uber, we're always looking for ways to make peoples' lives easier by helping them get whatever they need—whenever they need it—delivered to their doorstep," Christian Freese, head of New Verticals for Uber Eats in the US & Canada, said in a news release.
"Whether it's a printer paper shortage or a school project glue stick emergency, Uber Eats customers can find what they need to handle any business or school supply need with Office Depot on the platform."
Jamie Columbus, Vice President of eCommerce for Office Depot, added in the news release that there will be deals going on for their top school supplies items through September 10.
"With the start of a new school year and new busy schedules for many, we're excited to team up with Uber Eats to provide students, parents, teachers, small business owners and home office workers with an additional on-demand delivery option to help them get the tools they need, when they need them," Columbus said.
"We're proud to offer a wide assortment of business, teaching and learning products on the Uber Eats platform, with significant savings off our best-selling school supplies available through Sept. 10."
