Delaware may be small, but the need for genuinely dedicated gluten-free prepared food is the same as anywhere. Every box we ship to Wilmington, Dover, or the beaches comes from a Tennessee kitchen where gluten has never entered — not once since 2017. Meals arrive via FedEx Ground in about two ground days. Order by Thursday at midnight.
SmashMeals cooks every meal in a dedicated gluten-free kitchen and does not bring wheat, barley, or rye into the facility. That avoids shared gluten-containing prep equipment and airborne flour from on-site gluten baking, which reduces cross-contact risk compared with a shared kitchen. Ingredients, suppliers, and handling still require controls, so customers with celiac disease should review each meal's ingredient and allergen information and make decisions based on their own medical guidance.
How much does shipping to Delaware cost?
Shipping is a $30 flat rate via FedEx, no matter how many meals you order. Local Tri-Cities, Tennessee customers can choose pickup or local delivery instead.
How do the meals stay fresh in transit to Delaware?
Meals ship cold in insulated packaging with ice packs sized for 2-day FedEx ground transit. When they arrive, refrigerate them right away. Most meals keep several days refrigerated, and many can be frozen.
When do I need to order?
Orders close Thursday at midnight each week. Meals are cooked fresh after ordering closes, ship early the following week, and reach Delaware in about two FedEx ground days.
Can I send a box to someone else in Delaware as a gift?
Absolutely. Ship to any Delaware address — meals make a genuinely useful gift after surgery, a new baby, or a celiac diagnosis. Just enter their address at checkout.
