How to add delivery, pickup and other service hours on Google

Open Edit profile, then Hours, and under Add more hours choose a type such as delivery, takeout, pickup or drive through, then set its days and times and Save. More hours only show once your regular hours are set.

6 steps

  1. Step 1: Set your regular weekly hours first. Google won't display more hours on a profile without them.

What more hours are for

Plenty of businesses run more than one clock. The dining room opens at 11, but the drive-through starts at 6. The shop closes at 7, but curbside pickup ends at 6:30. Delivery stops an hour before the kitchen does. Your main hours can only describe one of those, and the rest end up as phone calls asking “are you still delivering?”

More hours give each service its own labeled schedule on your profile. Google’s examples are delivery, takeout, drive through and pickup, and its walkthrough uses happy hours. Each type you add appears separately, so a customer who only cares about pickup reads one line.

About the working title’s “senior hours”

Owners often look for a senior shopping hours option. Google’s more hours help page, as of the date checked, doesn’t list senior hours, and it doesn’t publish the full menu of types or say whether the menu varies by category. Open Add more hours on your own profile to see what’s offered. If what you need isn’t there, put the information in your business description or a post instead of misusing another label.

Get the main hours right first

Two rules from Google shape everything here:

  1. No main hours, no more hours. The extra hours won’t display until regular hours are set. If your profile is set to hide hours, these won’t show either.
  2. Usually a subset. Google says more hours should generally sit inside your primary hours. If your drive-through opens at 6 and your main hours say 11, a customer reading only the main line will think you’re closed at breakfast. Consider whether your main hours should reflect the earliest time anyone can buy from you.

One type at a time

Each type needs its own entry with its own days and times. A restaurant with takeout, delivery and happy hour sets three separate schedules. It takes a few extra minutes, but customers then see exactly what applies.

Changing or removing them later

Google’s more hours page explains adding only. It doesn’t spell out editing or removing a type. Go back to Edit profile and Hours, where the types you’ve added sit alongside your main hours. When a service ends, like a pandemic-era curbside window, take it off rather than leaving hours that promise something you no longer do.

If it doesn't work

  • The extra hours don't show on your profile: check that your regular hours are set, since Google won't display more hours without them.
  • The type you want, such as senior hours, isn't in the list: Google's page doesn't publish the full list of types. Use what's offered.
  • Your delivery runs later than you're open: Google says more hours should generally be a subset of main hours. Recheck both sets.
  • You need to remove an old type: Google's more hours page doesn't give removal steps. Open the same Hours screen and look for that entry.

Questions owners ask

Can I add senior shopping hours or kitchen hours?

Google's more hours page doesn't mention either. If the type isn't in the Add more hours list for your profile, you can't create a custom label. Mention the hours in your description or a post instead.

Should more hours fall inside my opening hours?

Generally, yes. Google says more hours should usually be a subset of your primary hours. A drive-through that opens before the lobby is a common exception, so enter what's true and make sure main hours aren't misleading.

Do holiday changes apply to delivery and pickup hours too?

Plan as if they might not. Google's pages don't explain how special hours and more hours interact, so on any holiday when a service window changes, set the special hours, then open the public profile and check that delivery or pickup reads correctly too.
