How does Walmart grocery pickup work?
Shop for groceries via the groceries section on Walmart.com or use the Walmart Grocery App. Fill up your online cart with food, cleaning supplies, pet supplies, diapers and more, check out and select a pickup time (between 8 a.m. and 8 p.m.) that works for you. If you order before 1 p.m., you can get same-day pickup.
Walmart employees will pull and bag your items and bring them out to your car (and load them for you) at your appointed time. Wait for the confirmation that your order is ready. Use the app to check in when you’re on your way so that the order will be ready when you arrive. And park in the designated pickup area.

Walmart grocery pickup is free. However, your store may require you to place a minimum order. That minimum amount will display in your cart, so you know how much more you need to order.

If the item you order isn’t available when your order is packed, Walmart will substitute it with something similar. If you don’t want substitutions, change the “substitutions” setting in your account, and unavailable items simply will be left off your order.
Get a ride to Walmart in a self-driving car
What if you want to take advantage of Walmart’s grocery pickup and delivery, but delivery isn’t available in your area and you don’t have a car?
Walmart is testing a partnership with Waymo (formerly Google’s self-driving car project) and combining it with grocery pickup.
If you live in the pilot city (the Phoenix metro area) and have been selected to participate in the pilot because you’re one of Waymo’s Early Riders public trial members, you can take part.
Place an online grocery pickup order via the Walmart Grocery App or on Walmart.com. Select a pickup time, and a Waymo car will arrive to shuttle you to Walmart. Note that, for the Early Riders trial, a test driver will be in the vehicle with you monitoring the ride.
