Store services change. This is a summary in our own words of the Sam's Club Pickup page, its membership page and a Sam's Club announcement on the Walmart corporate site, read on October 27, 2026. The official pages are the ones that apply; check the app or SamsClub.com before you order.

What it costs

The Sam's Club join page lists Free Curbside Pickup as included for both membership levels, Club and Plus. In October 2025 Sam's Club announced that Curbside Pickup is free for both levels with no minimum purchase on any order, whatever its size.

MembershipCurbside Pickup
Club ($60 a year)Free, no minimum
Plus ($120 a year)Free, no minimum

Sam's Club says the service runs at participating clubs in the US and Puerto Rico, on eligible items, and other restrictions may apply.

How it works

The Pickup page lays out three steps:

  1. Shop and schedule. Order on SamsClub.com or in the app and pick a pickup date and time at checkout.
  2. Park and check in. When you arrive, use the app to tell the club you are there.
  3. Stay in the car. Staff bring the order out and load it for you.

Changing your order

You can edit a pickup order before your time slot starts, but how early depends on its size.

Order sizeEdit until
48 items or fewer3 hours before the time slot begins
49 items or more16 hours before the time slot begins

Inside that window you can add or remove items and change quantities. Sam's Club notes that edits can change the order total and any fees. You can name or change an alternate pickup person at any time before pickup, and that person gets the order notifications.

Pickup hours

Pickup hours follow each club. The October 2025 announcement gave new Sunday hours for most clubs, with Curbside Pickup running from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. that day. For other days, check your club's page on SamsClub.com or the time slots offered at checkout.

Pickup or delivery?

Pickup is the free option for both levels. Same-day delivery from the club costs a fee per order unless you are a Plus member meeting the free threshold, so pickup can save money on smaller orders. See our Sam's Club shipping and delivery article for those fees.

Tips

  • Large orders need editing earlier, so finish big lists the day before.
  • Add an alternate pickup person if someone else may collect the order.
  • Check in through the app after you park, as the Pickup page describes.
