Theres no way to place that big an order. online or phone, and get what you want/need.

Yes I just spoke to my elderly parents in Brooklyn. They called every store they can think of but nobody is delivering. They are not supposed to go out at all - is there any solution for them?

And I'm sure they're not the only elderly couple living in New York.

I am 60+, multiply handicapped, and at very high risk. I find that it is extremely difficult to get things done, and my son, who came into Brooklyn from Lakewood, amd my good friend, weren’t able to get many of the things I need. I was supposed to go to my daughter. I will be having a minimal turnover, don’t know quite how I will manage, and it will be a seder for one! How depressing.

Unfortunately stores don't always deliver before Pesach because so many orders and such large quantities. I hope they can make it work this year due to the extra need. So many will be making pesach for the first time.. elderly need the assistance too.

There are some commercial services like instacart that deliver.

Many people are out of work so you could hire someone to shop for you or call in the order and just have them deliver it.
