From Our Truck to You
So Glad You Wandered Over.
You went looking for great grub in the delivery marketplaces and ended up with us. We're genuinely thankful you're thinking about ordering from Tha Ross Way directly.
Ordering direct is our favorite way to serve you, because it keeps the relationship between you and the people at the smoker. When you have a question or a craving, you're talking to us, not a call center.
Follow the Money
The Fees Behind the Feed
Grubhub is one of the original online food-ordering services and later joined forces with Seamless. Like other marketplaces, it typically charges restaurants a commission and adds fees to the customer's bill as well. Put those together and a big slice of your order never reaches the kitchen.
Through a Delivery Marketplace
| Commission charged to the restaurant | up to 30% |
|---|---|
| Credit card processing fee | 3% |
| Fee charged to you, the customer | up to 15% |
| Total taken, all around | up to 48% |
Ordering Direct From Tha Ross Way
| Commission charged to the restaurant | 0% |
|---|---|
| Extra fee charged to you | One small fee |
| Menu prices | Same as the truck |
| Anything else? | Nope. That's it. |
Marketplace fees vary by platform, plan, location and order. The percentages above are the maximums local restaurants commonly face across delivery marketplaces, not a quote from any one company. Check each app for its current pricing.
Shop Local. Eat Local.
Grub Local. Grow Local.
Ordering straight from Tha Ross Way keeps your dollars circulating in Des Moines. Those dollars pay local wages, support nearby suppliers and help a homegrown food truck keep rolling, instead of padding the margins of a national platform.
- Local jobs. Your order supports the crew cooking on Army Post Road.
- Local partners. More money for the Des Moines businesses we work with.
- Local flavor. A homegrown BBQ truck that keeps the fire going.
Truck Prices, Delivered.
Direct orders come with zero commission for us, so our online menu matches what you'd pay calling in or walking up. You cover one small fee and nothing else. No surprises when you check out.
