Welcome to a world where you can order cannabis online. We’ve entered a new era of legalized cannabis and dispensaries are here to help you with all your cannabis needs. You can easily do a quick online search to find your nearest dispensary and many of them have their cannabis menu online. In the year 2020, the need for online cannabis shopping drastically increased with the Covid-19 pandemic. As the country shut down, dispensaries found themselves finding creative ways to sell and deliver their products.
Things To Keep In Mind
Interested in ordering some cannabis from your phone? Here are some things you will need to keep in mind:
- Are you ordering recreational cannabis or medical cannabis?
- What state are you in? 33 states have legalized medical cannabis but only 11 states have legalized recreational cannabis.
- What county are you in? Some counties have laws that contradict the state laws. Make sure you know the laws where you are or planning to go.
If you’re not sure where to find the laws for your area, or the area you plan to be in, the information is online. Legal cannabis jurisdictions have information about their cannabis laws clearly posted on their websites. A quick Google search will be the best way to learn the lay of the land and stay out of trouble.
There’s An App For That
Now that you know the law, where can you find cannabis? And how do you choose the best dispensary for your needs? The app store on your phone offers several apps for finding cannabis dispensaries. Review apps can also help you research the many dispensaries and provide you with first-hand feedback about the facility and products.
Here are some cannabis apps to help you out:
- Weedmaps: this app will help you find a nearby dispensary.
- Leafy: gives you details and reviews about the different cannabis strains.
- Yelp: even cannabis dispensaries get Yelp reviews.
I’m Ready To Order
Many dispensaries have made ordering from your phone very easy, including us here at Proven. Using your smartphone, simply:
- Navigate to the dispensary website
- Click on their menu
- Select the products you want to purchase
- Check-out
- Pick up your purchase or have it delivered
When you go to pick up your order, you will need to bring your identification (you must be 21 years old to purchase recreational cannabis) and payment (if you didn’t pay by credit card online). If you choose delivery, you will still need to provide your identification to the driver.
Dos And Don’ts When You Order Cannabis
States that have legalized recreational cannabis still have rules about using it. You can’t just walk down the street smoking a joint. Make sure to adhere to the local laws and enjoy your purchase in the correct, designated places. Also, if you’re just visiting, make sure to not take your cannabis purchase over state lines and double-check your pockets before going to the airport.
