This time of year, you loathe the idea of loading everyone up for a quick (ha!) errand. (Whose idea was it anyway to make car seat buckles that heat up to a million degrees Fahrenheit?) There’s no doubt about it, schlepping the kids in and out of the car in the dead-heat of summer is not your idea of a good time.

Keep your cool. We’ve got the inside scoop on some places around town that will deliver stuff right to your air-conditioned mom-mobile for you.

Need some diapers? milk? tampons (phew)? a lemon? Whole Foods Market downtown offers complimentary curbside pickup. Just call the concierge desk at (512) 542.2243 and place your order over the phone. Head on down to the store, call again to let them know you’re there, and Viola! your item(s) will be promptly delivered to your vehicle.

Picking up the dry cleaning is always one of the last chores to get crossed off your list. Now it’s no big deal since locally owned Jack Brown Cleaners offers In-Car service at select locations. Just stop, drop (or pick-up) and roll. Can’t make it by one of their 45 Austin stores? They also offer free pick up and delivery. Just call (512) 491.9191 to arrange.

Your friends will wonder how you manage to do it all when the perfect gift arrives on their doorstep. Being Super-Mom is a whole lot easier with the help of the full service drive-though postal service at Old Koenig Pack and Ship. (Kill two birds with one stone: they also copy keys!)

Don’t heat up the oven, let Snap Kitchen do the cooking for you. This locally owned operation has the freshest, most wholesome to-go meals around, not to mention fantastic service. Pre-order by calling them at (512) 459.9000 to let them know you want to pick up curbside and your order will be ready when you pull up.

Getting everything done without breaking a sweat? Now that’s hot.
