How to Change Your Address on Uber Eats

To change your delivery address, select the delivery address on the ordering screen, enter or choose the new destination, and confirm your selection. You can also save another address for future deliveries. If you’ve already placed an order, you’ll need to request a change through that order’s help options instead.

How Address Changes Work on Uber Eats

There are different places where an address can matter: the destination selected for your next delivery, your saved locations, and the address attached to an order already placed. Changing the right one is what determines where your food goes.

For a food delivery, start with the delivery-address controls, not your payment card’s billing information or your general account details. The wording and placement of controls can vary by app version, so the instructions below describe what to look for rather than relying on one exact menu label.

How to Change Your Uber Eats Delivery Address

Choose the type of change you need before editing anything.

Your Situation Where to Make the Change
You haven’t placed the order yet The delivery-address selector on the ordering screen
You want another address available for later Your saved delivery locations
You’ve already placed the order The active order’s help options

Step 1: Open the Delivery-Address Selector

  1. Open the app and find the delivery address displayed on the ordering screen.
  2. Select that address to open the address search or list of saved destinations.
  3. Choose an existing destination if it is correct, or start entering a new one.

If you already have items in your cart, make the address change before submitting the order.

Step 2: Enter and Select the Correct Address

  1. Search for the street address of the place where you want the food delivered.
  2. Select the matching result.
  3. Check the street number, street name, city, and state.

Pay particular attention to directional words such as “North” and “South.” A matching street number and similar street name do not necessarily identify the same building.

Step 3: Add Apartment and Drop-Off Details

  1. Enter the apartment, suite, or unit number in the separate field when one is available.
  2. Add useful delivery instructions, such as the building name, entrance location, or intercom information.
  3. If the app lets you adjust a map pin, check that it identifies the correct building or entrance.

Keep the actual destination in the address fields. Delivery instructions can clarify how to reach your door, but they are not a substitute for correcting the street address.

Step 4: Confirm the Address and Finish Checkout

  1. Confirm the address selection and return to the ordering screen.
  2. Check that the new destination is displayed.
  3. Open your cart and review any changes to restaurant availability, delivery options, or the displayed total.

A restaurant available for your old destination may not deliver to the new one. If it is no longer available, choose a restaurant offered for the corrected address rather than trying to work around the delivery area.

After ordering, open the order details and verify that the intended destination appears there.

How to Change an Address After Placing an Order

Changing a saved address does not redirect an order already in progress.

You can request a correction after ordering, but acceptance is not guaranteed. The order’s status and whether the new destination can be served may affect what is possible.

  1. Open the active order. Find the order’s help or support controls.
  2. Look for an address-change option. If one is available, enter the correct delivery address. Otherwise, contact support from the affected order and explain that its destination is wrong.
  3. Review the response before accepting. Read any conditions or price changes presented with the request.
  4. Confirm the outcome. Check for the corrected destination in the order details or an explicit confirmation from support.

If a courier is already assigned and an in-app contact option is available, let them know promptly about the address problem. A message to the courier alone is not confirmation that a different destination has been approved.

If the change cannot be accepted, use the order’s help options to establish whether you can receive it at the original address or need to cancel. Review any cancellation charge or refund information before confirming cancellation; a wrong address does not guarantee a free cancellation or refund.

If you cancel, verify that the order is canceled before placing a replacement with the correct address.

How to Add a Second Address on Uber Eats

Adding another saved destination is useful when you regularly order to more than one place. It also avoids repeatedly typing an address and accidentally choosing a similar search result.

  1. Open the delivery-address selector and look for your saved locations or the option to enter another address.
  2. Enter the additional address and select the matching result.
  3. Add its unit number and delivery details.
  4. Use the available save control. Add a recognizable label if the app offers that option.
  5. Reopen your saved locations and check that the new destination appears with the correct details.

When you want food delivered there, select that saved destination and confirm that it appears on the ordering screen. Merely having an address saved does not establish that it is selected for the next order.

Check Your Address Change and Prevent Mix-Ups

Before moving on, make sure the app has kept your change rather than leaving it in an unfinished entry screen. For a saved location, reopen the entry and check its details. For an order, rely on the destination attached to that order, not just the address displayed on the home screen.

A few habits help keep future deliveries on track:

  • Remove obsolete saved destinations when a removal option is available.
  • Use distinct labels for similar locations if custom labels are supported.
  • Check the selected destination after switching accounts or devices.
  • Treat a temporary destination, such as a hotel or a friend’s home, as something to recheck on your next order.

For your next delivery, select the destination first and choose the restaurant afterward.

Frequently Asked Questions

How Do I Change My Location on Uber Eats?

To browse or order for another location, enter an address in that area using the delivery-address selector. You do not need to change your phone’s location settings just to choose a different delivery destination. If you want the app to detect your current location, allow location access in your phone’s app permissions, then check and confirm the suggested address before using it.

How Do I Change My Work Address in the Uber Eats App?

Open the delivery-address selector and find your saved work location. Use its editing option if available; otherwise, add and save the replacement address before removing the obsolete entry. Reopen the saved work location to verify the change, then select it when you want your next delivery sent there.

Why Can’t I Change My Address on Uber Eats?

An address change may fail because the address search cannot find a match, the app is not responding, or you are trying to alter an order already in progress. If search is the problem, enter the street address without the apartment number, select the correct result, then add the unit details and confirm. If the address selector is unresponsive, close and reopen the app, check for an update, and retry the change before verifying the selected destination. For a placed order, request the correction through that order’s help options and wait for confirmation before assuming its destination has changed.
