Whether you’re a seasoned connoisseur or a curious first-timer, this guide has the answers you’re looking for. Let’s dive in.

The Big Questions: Legality & Safety

Is weed delivery actually legal in New York City?

Answer: Yes, 100%—as long as you order from a service licensed by the New York State Office of Cannabis Management (OCM). The OCM is the governing body that regulates all legal cannabis sales and delivery in the state. Any business operating without this license is doing so illegally. MetroBud is a fully licensed and compliant operator, ensuring every transaction is legal and above board.

How can I tell if a delivery service is legal and safe?

Answer: This is the most important question you can ask. A legal service will be transparent. Look for these key signs: a verifiable OCM license number displayed on their website, a strict 21+ age verification process (both online and at the door), and a commitment to selling only lab-tested cannabis products NYC residents can trust. Illicit services often operate through social media DMs, use vague language, and sell products in non-compliant packaging.

How do I know the cannabis products are safe to consume?

Answer: Every product sold by a licensed service like MetroBud must undergo rigorous third-party lab testing. This testing confirms the product’s potency (THC and CBD levels) and ensures it is free from harmful contaminants like pesticides, heavy metals, and mold. Legal products will have a QR code on the packaging that links to a Certificate of Analysis (COA), which is the official lab report. This is your guarantee of safety and quality.

The Ordering Process: From Click to Doorbell

What do I need to place an order?

Answer: It’s simple. You need to be 21 years of age or older, have a valid government-issued photo ID (like a driver’s license or passport), and have a delivery address within our service areas, which include Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, and the Bronx.

How fast is the delivery? I’ve heard about ‘same day weed delivery NYC’.

Answer: You heard right! At MetroBud, speed is our specialty. We offer same day weed delivery NYC, and in many cases, we can get your order to you in about an hour. Once you place your order, you’ll receive a tracking link to follow your driver in real-time, so you know exactly when to expect your delivery.

What are my payment options?

Answer: To ensure a secure and compliant transaction, we currently accept payment upon delivery. You can pay your professional courier with cash or a debit card when they arrive at your door.

Product & Menu Questions

I’m new to this. What should I order first?

Answer: Welcome! We’re happy to help you start your journey. A great starting point for many is a balanced hybrid strain, which offers a mix of relaxing and uplifting effects. You could try a pre-roll to see how you like it. If you’re interested in edibles, the golden rule is to start low and go slow. Try a gummy with a low dose (2.5mg or 5mg of THC) and wait at least 90 minutes to see how you feel. Our customer service team is always happy to offer personalized recommendations!

What’s the difference between Indica, Sativa, and Hybrid?

Answer: This is a simple way to categorize cannabis effects:

• Indica: Generally associated with relaxing, sedating, and full-body effects. Often preferred for nighttime use. Think ‘in-da-couch’.
• Sativa: Known for uplifting, energetic, and cerebral effects. Great for daytime activities, creativity, and social gatherings.
• Hybrid: A mix of both! Hybrids can be Sativa-dominant, Indica-dominant, or balanced, offering a wide range of effects. They are the most common and versatile category.

The Delivery Experience

Will my neighbors know I’m getting a weed delivery?

Answer: Absolutely not. We take your privacy very seriously. Our couriers arrive in unmarked vehicles and are dressed in plain clothes. Your order is delivered in a discreet, plain, and odor-proof package. The entire process is designed to be as low-key as a food delivery.

Do I have to be home to accept the delivery?

Answer: Yes. A person aged 21 or older must be present at the delivery address to accept the order. Our courier is required by law to verify the physical ID of the person receiving the package to ensure it matches the name on the order. Orders cannot be left unattended.
