Delivery Zone Boundary Map

Reading the Zone Boundaries Before You Order

Portland's quadrant system makes our zones easy to picture, but the edges are where most questions come up. The Willamette River separates the east side from the west, and Burnside Street divides north from south. That means an address on one side of Burnside can sit in a different zone from a neighbour just across the street. If your address is close to Burnside, the river, or a major arterial, check the house number and street prefix (N, NE, SE, NW, SW) on your order before you assume a zone.

Why the boundaries matter at night

Late-night routes are planned around bridge crossings and the roads that stay clear after dark. A drop that crosses the river usually takes longer than one that stays on the same side, even if it is close as the crow flies. Bridge closures, roadworks and event traffic can also change which crossing a driver uses. When your address sits near a zone edge, give a little extra slack in your timing, especially on busy weekend nights.

North Portland and the outer edges

North Portland, the fifth quadrant, sits between the Willamette and Williams Avenue. It does not appear as its own zone in the list above, so addresses with an N prefix can fall at the edge of our coverage. The same goes for the outer east side and the hillier parts of the west side, where winding streets and patchy signage slow deliveries down. If you are unsure, ask before you order rather than after.

Tips for a smooth drop

• Enter your full address with its quadrant prefix. Portland has many repeated street names across quadrants.
• Add building codes, gate details or a landmark for apartments and townhouse complexes.
• Keep your porch light on and your phone nearby so the driver can reach you.
• Check our hours for when each zone is served. Coverage can shift with the season.
