Target is expanding its next-day delivery service across the United States, giving millions of shoppers faster access to online orders as the retailer strengthens its omnichannel fulfilment network.
The expansion means that by spring 2026, around 60% of the U.S. population will be able to receive Target orders the next day, with the service launching across more than 50 major metro areas.
The move is part of Target’s broader effort to improve convenience and delivery speed for online customers.
What Target next-day delivery includes
The next-day delivery program covers most products sold by Target.
According to the company, 85% of items available in Target stores are eligible for next-day delivery, including many grocery, household and everyday essentials.
Customers can see whether a product qualifies by checking the product page or checkout screen.
Delivery is free for orders over $35.
Customers who are Target Circle 360 members or use a Target Circle Card can receive next-day delivery with no minimum order amount on most eligible products.
For other orders, the service is available for $5.99 per delivery.
Major U.S. metro areas included
The rollout covers a wide range of metropolitan markets across the United States.
Cities where next-day delivery is already available include:
-
Los Angeles
-
San Diego
-
San Francisco
-
Denver
-
Chicago
-
Miami
-
Atlanta
-
New York City
-
Boston
-
Detroit
-
Minneapolis
-
Philadelphia
-
Dallas
-
Houston
-
Seattle
Additional markets across states including Alabama, California, Florida, Texas, Ohio, Oklahoma and Tennessee are scheduled to launch in the coming weeks.
Some markets will come online later in March as the rollout continues.
Target expands omnichannel fulfilment
The next-day delivery expansion adds another fulfilment option alongside Target’s existing services.
The retailer already reaches:
-
80% of the U.S. population with same-day delivery, often within two or three hours
-
99% of the population with two-day shipping
Target also continues to operate its Order Pickup and Drive Up services, which remain free for customers.
The company says these options allow shoppers to choose the delivery method that best fits their schedule.
Why the expansion matters
The move highlights how major retailers are investing heavily in faster last-mile delivery and omnichannel fulfilment, a trend that is reshaping the US grocery market as retailers compete to offer quicker and more convenient online shopping.
Speed of delivery has become a key competitive factor as retailers compete with companies such as Amazon, Walmart, and Kroger, all of which have expanded rapid delivery capabilities.
By expanding next-day delivery to more metro areas, Target aims to strengthen its digital shopping experience while supporting the continued growth of online retail.
Editor’s Note: The announcement was published by Target on March 6, 2026 as part of an update on the company’s digital fulfilment services and national delivery network.
