Taco Bell is jumping on the home delivery band wagon. Starting on Wednesday the fast food chain is partnering with Palo Alto-based tech start up DoorDash to roll out daytime orders of Taco Bell favorites including Chalupas, burritos and nachos. Customers can use the home delivery app in over 90- Californian cities and Dallas for a delivery cost of $3.99. After ordering through the app or the DoorDash website, Taco Bell customers can expect to receive their order in under an hour. A driver is sent to the closest available Taco Bell to pick up and deliver the food. The Tex-Mex chain is looking to expand the service to other cities, while DoorDash has raised almost $60 million for expansion. The company announced that it hopes to bring delivery options to 500 cities by the end of 2015. Other fast food restaurant chains have also been looking to the app space to launch home delivery. Chipotle (CMG) is teaming up with courier Postmates to bring home delivery to over 60 cities for a fee of up to $7.99. Other major chains also partnering with Postmates include MacDonald’s and Starbucks.
