April 24, 2020
Boxcar Comes to Bernardsville!
Boxcar, the New Jersey based computer app company, has partnered with Gargiulo Produce to offer no contact, drive through pickup of groceries. Already well established in Madison and Cranford, Boxcar grocery is now available on Fridays, 12 to 3 p.m. in the Bernardsville Pool parking lot. Today was the first day and 70 boxes were delivered to thankful customers who conveniently drove up, popped the trunk, had their box put in the trunk by a Boxcar employee, then drove home. To learn more about the program and reserve your box for next week, go to http://www.boxcarapp.com/grocery You can also reserve a box and have it donated to the Food Pantry at St. Bernard's. After you reserve it, send an email to support@boxcarapp.com to let them know that it's a donation and they will have it delivered to the Food Pantry for you.
