If you’re wondering if you can order cannabis online in New Jersey, the answer is yes… and no. Learn how online ordering works when you buy cannabis from a dispensary like Queen City.
How ordering cannabis online in New Jersey works
You can place your cannabis order online before you head to the dispensary. The thing is, you have to pick up the cannabis yourself. No dispensary, including Queen City, can legally ship cannabis in the mail.
Benefits of ordering your cannabis online at Queen City
Just because it doesn’t arrive at your doorstep like an Amazon package doesn’t mean there aren’t a ton of benefits to ordering cannabis online. Here’s why our shoppers love to place their orders in advance for pickup.
- Save time and skip the line: With online ordering, you can easily browse through the Plainfield dispensary menu on our website or on the Queen City app from wherever you are.

How do you know if you’re ordering from a licensed store?
It’s always a good idea to double-check that you’re ordering cannabis from a licensed dispensary before you complete checkout. Licensed dispensaries only carry products that have been tested and authorized for sale in the state. Shopping at a licensed dispensary also supports the local economy and community, with shops that provide good jobs for local residents.
So before you hit “add to cart,” check these factors to confirm you’re placing an order with a licensed dispensary:
- Check for a license number: A licensed dispensary has been issued permission from the New Jersey Cannabis Regulatory Commission (NJCRC) to operate. You can check the CRC’s website for a list of licensed dispensaries, including Queen City.
- You don’t have to buy anything extra: If you’re being pressured into buying additional items or services, it’s a red flag. A licensed dispensary will not require you to buy a t-shirt or similar item. This is sometimes called “gifting” and is a common tactic used by unlicensed dispensaries.
- The brands offered are officially licensed in NJ: Take note if the brands offered by the store are licensed formally in New Jersey. Be sure to check for compliant cannabis labels that clearly communicate the product’s contents and provide public safety protection labels.
Other ways to order cannabis in New Jersey
If online ordering isn’t your thing, there are plenty of other ways to get your cannabis from Queen City and other dispensaries. Among the options you have are:
- Self-service kiosks: Use a self-service kiosk when you walk into the store to browse the menu and make your selections. You can use the kiosk on your own or speak with a budtender to help you make selections. When you walk into Queen City, you’ll find several self-service kiosks immediate to your left when you walk into our dispensary.
- Shop at the counter with a budtender. Any helpful budtender at Queen City can take you through the product options in stock. Bring your questions and strike up a conversation with a budtender — if we don’t strike one up with you first!
