Components are then portioned into meal trays, sealed, flash frozen, and delivered in temperature controlled containers to your facility.

HOME DELIVERED MEALS

Our founder, Monty, created HOME DELIVERED MEALS in response to requests from our customers. They wanted a meal that could be delivered directly to their homes. Our company was the first in the state to produce and deliver portioned oven-ready meals. All meals meet the latest DRIs for Indiana and come to you frozen. These meals are designed to be nutritious, vibrant, and tasty. This program gives you the flexibility to match not only meals to specific clients, but also to various delivery options. HOME DELIVERED MEALS are available for purchase as individual meals, 2-packs, or 5-packs. We can also custom design a multi-pack meal for your program as needed.

Once you select Chef for Hire as your provider we will notify you of your delivery day, method of delivery, and menu options to fit your specific dietary needs.

Clients Delivered Via a Shipping Courier

Chef for Hire Home Delivered Meals ships all packages via a Shipping Courier. All packages are shipped to the customer under ‘Shipper Release’. This is the process that allows a Shipping Courier to leave your package at your doorstep without obtaining a signature from you. Once the package has been left at your door, it is your responsibility. If for some reason this does not work for you and you would rather sign for your delivery, please feel free to call Chef for Hire Home Delivered Meals and let them know you intend to sign for your delivery. If you choose the ‘Shipper Required’ option, Chef for Hire Home Delivered Meals cannot be responsible for your food’s freshness if you are not home at the time of delivery and a Shipping Courier must deliver your food the next business day.

Chef for Hire Home Delivered Meals products delivered by a Shipping Courier are perishable and should be refrigerated no later than the night of delivery. Occasionally, due to circumstances beyond Chef for Hires Home Delivered Meals control, the Shipping Courier may not deliver packages on time and/or packages may get damaged during transit. We make all efforts to securely package our meals with sufficient amounts of gel packs in Styrofoam coolers. Chef for Hire Home Delivered Meals can only guarantee that packages will be shipped out on time and in excellent condition. Tracking numbers are available for every shipment we send out. However, we cannot be responsible for the delivery service failures on the part of the Shipping Courier. In the rare event that the Shipping Courier fails to deliver a package on time or damages the package during transit, Chef for Hire Home Delivered Meals cannot be held liable. In the event of the delivery failures due to weather conditions, no claims can be made, either to Chef for Hire Home Delivered Meals or a Shipping Courier. Similarly, any claim for a lost, stolen, missing, and/or damaged shipment is against the Shipping Courier and is NOT the responsibility of Chef for Hire Home Delivered Meals, its officers, members, or employees.
