Alcohol delivery facilitated by third party delivery platforms helps Americans of legal drinking age have their favorite alcohol beverages delivered to their homes from local retailers and restaurants, as permitted by state regulations.
These deliveries must be executed in the safest, most responsible way possible. Third party delivery platforms have committed to supporting safe alcohol deliveries. The Core Four: Principles of Responsible Alcohol Delivery exhibit dedication to the safety of consumers and alcohol responsibility.
The CORE FOUR Include:
1.
Confirm alcohol deliveries are only to those over the minimum legal drinking age of 21.
2.
Prevent delivery to those underaged, intoxicated, or where prohibited by law.
3.
Provide education on safe alcohol delivery to individuals that deliver alcohol.
4.
Implement checks to ensure compliance with these standards.
As an additional consideration, Responsibility.org urges that companies conducting alcohol deliveries incorporate messaging on their platforms and in
communications with consumers to help prevent underage drinking, eliminate drunk driving, and ensure that adults who choose to drink are doing so responsibly.
