Tesco Offer "Naked" Deliveries

Today Tesco announced in an email campaign to their online shopping users that they will be implementing "naked" deliveries. The email titled "Naked Deliveries and Half Price Fruit and Vegetables!" points out "It's not our drivers who might be naked, it's our shopping without bags. Our customers told us that we use too many carrier bags so we're doing something about it."

Tesco are showing their commitment to continually reduce the 18 billion carrier bags we use per year in the UK and this is why they have implemented this new addition to their delivery service. This new feature to their Green Clubcard Points scheme has been long overdue with some websites touting Tesco used on average one bag for every two and a half items. When ordering if you decide to opt for "naked" deliveries, you will be rewarded with Green Clubcard Points. 1 Green Clubcard Point for every 10 items ordered.

The service has been available for two years for customers in Ireland.

"Delivery without bags is both a win for our customers and the environment."

They do note however in their FAQ, "It is important to think carefully before selecting to have your delivery without bags, particularly in the following situations:

• You prefer the driver not to come into your home and therefore normally have your shopping unloaded at the doorstep.
• You live in a property that is difficult for your driver to access with green trays."
