Before you plan to order lot of stuff online, check delivery dates. Amazon is pushing off delivery dates of anything considered non-essential.

Check the dates, but if they're doable, order anyway. I ordered something that said it would take 11 days to come. Then got an email update that it would come in 12 days. And then it arrived in just 5 days! I had something similar happen with another order as well.

It might be worthwhile the buy the Jewish stuff that comes color coded, since those do not need to be toiveled.

Where do you buy that?

Kosher supermarkets like Gourmet Glatt, Breadberry, and Jewish hardware/houseware stores.

Some of their pieces seem to be on Amazon but might be more expensive.

Also go through the Seder in your mind to see what you need for that.
Maror leaves and grated. Karpas potatoes. We eat egg with saltwater before the meal...

In Baltimore, rabbanim will be posting guidelines about how to deal with many things this year. One thing they will be explaining is how to deal with toveling and have guidelines you can follow so you can use things without toveling for this year only. I'm not sure it's been posted yet, just a blurb was sent out in advance to give people a heads up. They do NOT want people to be using a keilim mikvah. I know a video of Rabbi Heineman responding to submitted questions has been posted on YWN. Not sure if he discussed that yet, but I'm sure once these guidelines are published it will be posted somewhere.
It's not just one rav, btw, it's the Vaad of Baltimore.

I ordered everything I needed yesterday on Amazon, everything Prime. I must have been have asleep, because I just realized that the delivery date is APRIL 26 not March 26. So I have nothing. I have no idea where else to get a basic few pots, silverware, and basic kitchen stuff.

Same with Lkwd. They will be using every kulah imaginable since it’s not a regular yr, including allowing ppl to sell real chometz even if not their minhag and not toiveling everything.

Please don’t take this as Halacha unless you hear same from your Rav!

Don't use their toiveling service. Toiveling is not sanitary right now no matter which mikvah.
