Washington has implemented a ban on single use plastic bags. We now need to charge $0.08 for reusable bags or paper bags. How have people set this up on the delivery apps (GrubHub, DoorDash, Uber Eats)? I keep getting inconsistent answers from all the delivery apps saying to add it to each item, that it's included in the delivery fee but you can't see it, or all the way to we're working on it.
Does anyone have experience on how they charged this fee?
Here’s an excerpt from their FAQs: Can retailers “eat the cost” of approved plastic and paper checkout bags and not charge their customers?
No. The minimum 8-cent charge must be collected and is intended to promote the use of reusable bags by customers. The number and total cost of these bags must be shown on the customer’s sales receipt. This ensures a level playing field among retailers.
