What is this document?
A retailer may register with the Commission to engage in the home delivery of marijuana items to
recreational customers. This document explains the privileges and restrictions applicable to any home
delivery. If you hold a retailer license and wish to engage in the home delivery of recreational marijuana
items to consumers, you should be familiar with this guide and the administrative rules relating to home
delivery.
Who can deliver marijuana items to a consumer’s home?
Only a retailer and that retailer’s representatives may engage in this privilege. Any person delivering
marijuana items on behalf of a retailer must be registered in the Cannabis Tracking System (CTS) as
an employee of that retailer with a valid marijuana worker permit number and be declared on the
required transport manifest as recorded in CTS.
I want to hire another company such as a wholesaler to do my home deliveries. How do I do that?
This is not permitted. Although a wholesaler licensee may transfer marijuana items between licensed
premises on behalf of another licensee, in order for a person to provide home delivery of marijuana on
behalf of a retailer, that person must be an employee of the retailer and must be recorded as such in
the Cannabis Tracking System. A person may not be an employee representing multiple retailers
simultaneously and may not provide home delivery for multiple retailers simultaneously.
Can I make multiple deliveries to the same address in a single day?
No. A retailer may not make more than one delivery to the same address in a single day, even if the
delivery is to a different individual.
Can I deliver non-marijuana items as well?
Nothing in OLCC’s administrative rules prohibits a retailer licensee from delivering non-marijuana items
to a residence. However, these items may not be “bundled” with marijuana items; each item must have
a separate price and a licensee may never discount a marijuana item contingent upon the purchase of
any other item.
For example, a licensee may not sell a non-marijuana item at an inflated price in order for a customer to
receive a marijuana item at a discounted price and a licensee may not require the purchase of a non-
marijuana item in order to receive a marijuana item.

Location of Deliveries
A retailer may only deliver marijuana items in the jurisdiction in which the retailer premises is licensed. For a
retailer in an incorporated local city, this means that no deliveries can be made to any location outside of the
city limits. Note the city listed in the address of a home location may or may not be the actual
jurisdiction in which that home is located. For a retailer in an unincorporated county area, this means no
deliveries can be made into different counties or into any incorporated city area.
The only exception is delivery to an OMMP patient or a patient’s designated primary caregiver. A retailer with
this registration may deliver marijuana items to a patient or a patient’s designated primary caregiver at an
individual’s residence in Oregon, regardless of the jurisdiction where the residence is located.
It is your responsibility to confirm that a home delivery location is within the jurisdiction in which you are
licensed. This jurisdiction will usually be the same as the local or county government from which you received
a determination on your Land Use Compatibility Statement, but there can be exceptions. For example, if a
retailer is outside city limits but within an urban growth boundary (UGB), the jurisdiction for delivery purposes is
the county because they are outside city limits, but in some cases the city may sign their LUCS if they
authorize land use within the UGB. You may wish to contact the jurisdiction in which you are licensed to
determine specific boundaries.
A delivery may be made only to a residence such as a house or apartment. Deliveries may not be made to
dormitories, hotels, motels, bed & breakfasts, or other similar commercial businesses.
