How to Remove Your Addresses from DoorDash in 2024

Do you have old addresses on your DoorDash account? Maybe you have relocated, or you placed an order using a temporary address. 

Whatever the reason, updating your delivery addresses can make the DoorDash checkout process faster and more accurate. 

In this blog post, we are going to walk you through the simple steps of removing addresses from your DoorDash account using both the app and the website.

What is DoorDash?

This San Francisco giant isn't just another app; it's the king of the American food delivery scene, with a whopping 56% market share. 

They also hold a commanding 60% in the convenience delivery sector. Launched in 2013, DoorDash has grown into a massive platform, connecting over 450,000 businesses with 20 million hungry customers.

Why Should I Remove My Address From DoorDash?

There are several reasons to remove unwanted addresses from your DoorDash account:

Avoid Accidental Purchases

Having old addresses on your account can lead to mistakenly sending your meals to the wrong location. Removing unused addresses reduces the possibility of this happening.

Speedy Checkout

With a cleaner address list, you will spend less time scrolling and selecting during checkout. This streamlines the process and allows you to enjoy your tasty food sooner.

Enhanced Accuracy

DoorDash estimates the duration of delivery as well as costs based on your delivery address. Outdated addresses can result in inaccurate estimates, creating annoyance and delays.

Privacy

If you want to keep your previous addresses private, removing them from DoorDash can be an extra step toward reducing your online activity.

How to Remove Your Addresses from DoorDash

1. First of all, open the DoorDash app on your smartphone or iPhone.

2. Then log in to your account after that tap on the Account button on the bottom right corner of the screen.

3. Then under the account tab tap on the Addresses option.

4. After that on the next page, tap on the Pencil icon next to the saved address which you want to remove.

5. Then on the next page tap on the Trash icon at the top right corner of the screen.

6. Once you tap on it a popup window will appear which says do you want to delete this address. Click on the Yes button.

That is it, you can now easily delete outdated addresses from your DoorDash application.

Things to Consider Before Removing Your Address from DoorDash 

While removing unused addresses from DoorDash improves convenience and security, there are some cases in which keeping an address could be useful. Here are things to consider before deleting:

Future Use

Will you order meals from this address again? Whether it's a friend's house you visit sometimes, a work address for shared lunches, or a holiday rental you frequently use. If you're likely to need the address again, save it for later use.

Order History

While DoorDash does not publicly share previous addresses, it can be useful to retain the address on file in case you must look up an order detail or re-order a particular item.

Shared Accounts

When deleting an address from your DoorDash account, confirm that it is no longer required by anybody else.

Is DoorDash Considered a Secure Platform?

DoorDash, like many other online services, might be vulnerable to security breaches. Data breaches have previously exposed user information, and phishing attempts targeting login credentials remain a source of risk. 

While DoorDash provides safety protections for Dashers (delivery drivers), it is critical to be aware of these possible threats while practising proper safety habits such as using secure passwords and exercising caution when clicking on links or responding to unsolicited messages.
