PRESALE IS LIVE. First production batch, ships December 2026. Pre-Order Now →
Delivery culture, documented

Every delivery ends with a decision you never see.

The driver reaches your door and has to guess. PorchDrop gives them one obvious answer: an elevated, UV-resistant spot built for exactly this handoff.

First production batch, limited quantity. Once it ships, pricing on future batches is not guaranteed to stay the same.

LIVE CAPTURE
THE HANDOFFEvery porch is different. Every driver has to guess, unless there's one obvious spot.

The data

The numbers nobody asked for.

Delivery stopped being an occasional treat a while ago. It's now a daily operation with its own logistics problems, most of which end at your doormat.

First delivery. No table, no stand. Just a bag on the ground.

Russ started DoorDashing for some extra income between roles. On the very first run, the app said "leave at door." There was no door-adjacent anywhere to leave it, just concrete. He didn't love that. Neither did anyone else, it turned out.

Who built this

Built by someone who actually did the deliveries.

PorchDrop didn't come from a boardroom. It came from over 2,000 DoorDash deliveries, a lot of soggy bags, and one too many "sorry, I couldn't find a good spot" texts.

Every porch is a little different. Every driver is guessing. PorchDrop removes the guessing: one obvious, elevated spot, built UV-resistant and weatherproof to handle whatever gets left there, in whatever Florida throws at it.

Patent pending. Trademark registered. Designed in Florida.

Before you ask

Quick answers.

Will drivers actually use it?

That's the whole bet, and it's why we're showing real Ring footage instead of a 3D render. The raised "PLACE FOOD HERE" marker gives drivers an obvious, unambiguous spot, which is exactly what they're looking for in the ten seconds they spend at your door.

Why not just use a side table I already own?

You can, but most porch furniture isn't built to live outside year-round, sit at the right drop height, or survive up to 75 lbs of someone's entire Costco order. PorchDrop is purpose-built for exactly this one job.

What's it made of?

UV-resistant, weatherproof HDPE (high-density polyethylene), chosen specifically to hold up to direct sun, rain, and daily use without breaking down. Not your average plastic patio table.

Is this just for food delivery?

No, it's just as useful for Amazon packages, groceries, and anything else that currently lands on your porch floor. Leave it out and it becomes the default drop spot for everything.

Isn't it just a table?

It has a tabletop. We never claimed otherwise.

The difference is that PorchDrop wasn't designed as patio furniture. Every dimension, material, and feature was chosen for one purpose: creating a dedicated destination for deliveries.

  • Sized for food, groceries, and packages.
  • Built to live outdoors year round.
  • Designed to be highly visible to delivery drivers.
  • Stable enough for heavy deliveries.
  • Engineered as a modular platform for future accessories.

The goal was never to invent the first table. The goal was to create the first table designed specifically for modern deliveries.

So... you patented a table?

No. We filed a patent application covering the specific design we created, not the general idea of a table. Patents protect new designs and innovations within existing product categories every day.

PorchDrop is our approach to solving a familiar problem with a thoughtful design.

Why not just keep using the ground?

Because we've accepted it for years, not because it's the best solution. Every day, millions of meals, groceries, and packages are placed directly on porches, sidewalks, and entryways.

We simply asked a different question: What if there were a better place?

Why is PorchDrop modular?

PorchDrop wasn't designed to stop with a tabletop. It was designed as a platform.

The Classic is just the beginning. Future accessories are already being developed, including:

  • Clip-on cup holder for delivery drivers
  • Secure cable lock option
  • Vault cover for added protection
  • Additional accessories as the product evolves

Our goal was to create a product that grows over time instead of remaining a single-purpose table.
