Local Shipping Options
And, even if you still prefer to shop from your couch, most Chico businesses can ship directly to your doorstep too!
As you discovered, it was easy during COVID to stay home and shop online with global warehouses. But there’s a problem with that. Your sales-tax and personal-spending dollars are siphoned to other companies and communities elsewhere.
In contrast, when you shop in Chico:
You keep your share of local sales-tax dollars right here in town, where it can be used to invest in improving our police and fire services as well as keep up parks and improve streets.
You allow local businesses to expand and hire more workers. That, in turn, encourages new companies to open right here. It means you are investing in your friends, your neighbors and your children’s economic future.
When you strengthen local businesses, those businesses tap their own community spirit by supporting local charities, schools, civic groups and other worthy causes
