There are many important factors to consider when determining the top marijuana delivery services in any city, and Washington DC is no different in that regard. What is different about DC is that you have considerably more vendor options, the vast majority being unregulated, than in many other areas. This is because in DC there are legacy businesses that have been operating under what's known as "Initiative 71" (i-71) as well as licensed medical dispensaries who also have delivery options available.
Intriguingly, many of the i-71 services have historically had better quality and prices than some medical options, but which ones are the best and how can you find them? Enter Toker's Guide. It's part of our mission to continuously examine and vet all the DC delivery options and report the best ones, along with their best products, back to our audience in the form of weed reviews and lists of services.
In the future, as DC's legacy cannabis businesses convert to medical dispensaries and licensed couriers, we'll be amending our list to include these newly licensed, fully-legal entities. For now, however, you can find the BEST marijuana delivery options, licensed or i-71, currently serving DC below based on our experiences with them and the following criteria:
Product Quality
Here at Toker's Guide we're ONLY looking for the BEST, highest quality, cannabis products around. All of the services on our site have great flower, edibles, and concentrate, but some rise above the rest. To determine who's bringing the best to market we're looking at freshness, flavor, potency, and proper packaging as some of the most important aspects.
Customer Service
Just because you have great flower doesn't mean you can get it to me on time and without hassle. Therefore, when grading DC delivery services, we've taken aspects like punctuality, kindness, and knowledgeability into consideration.
Menu Variety
We also want to see that DC marijuana delivery services have a wide variety of products and product types to choose from, not just the same few types of flower or edibles each time. In fact, we want to see an easy to navigate menu that's full of great, high quality options. Of course, we also want to see that you have what you say you have and won't pull a "switcheroo" on anyone.
So, without further adieu, I give you our Top 5 Marijuana Delivery Services in Washington DC...
