Domino's launches new collection service in Hartlepool where you don't have to leave your car

After trialling the system before Christmas at select stores, the pizza company has now launched an In Car Collection service in Hartlepool.

It’s being launched at stores in Bishop Cuthbert and Catcote Road, where there is parking available.

The hassle-free way to collect pizzas has been designed so that people don’t have to leave their cars, thus minimising contact during the pandemic.

The new system uses location-sharing to track a customer’s journey from sofa to store and, once you’re outside, a member of staff brings the pizza to your car.

How does it work?

::Choose your favourite pizza, sides and desserts for order and select the In-Car Collection option online or via the app;

::The store will send you a text message 10 minutes before your order is ready for collection;

::Share your current location with the store by clicking a link in the text;

::The pizza chefs get busy making and baking your order. They’ll track your journey to the store;

::You arrive at the designated Domino’s parking area and they bring the order straight to your car, contact free.

Clive West, Domino’s Group Digital Director, said: “We are delighted to launch In Car Collection.

"Feedback from stores already offering the service has been fantastic, so I’m sure our latest innovation will be a hit with local customers.

"We’re always looking to make things easy as possible for our customers and knowing convenience and speed are key, In Car Collection offers another safe collection method.”
