Shoppers looking for cheap deals at The Reject Shop are about to face another round of changes, with the discount chain quietly pulling its home delivery option as it prepares for a major rebrand.
The company confirmed it has ended its partnership with DoorDash, meaning customers can no longer order items for delivery through the app.
Delivery service cut just as Christmas stock arrives
A spokesperson told nine.com.au the retailer is not available on DoorDash 'at the moment,' while store staff also confirmed that orders have stopped being prepared.
The partnership is believed to have begun winding down in August, leaving no alternative delivery options for Reject Shop products.
The change comes only weeks before Christmas merchandise lands in stores, and just as ALDI launches its own partnership with DoorDash, giving shoppers their first chance to get ALDI groceries delivered nationally.

390+ stores to rebrand as Dollarama following July acquisition
New price point strategy and store design changes planned
From Aussie icon to Dollarama brand
The Reject Shop was acquired by Canadian discount giant Dollarama in July for $259 million, with more than 390 stores across the country set to be rebranded under the new name by 2027.
Dollarama CEO Neil Rossy said at the time: 'Expanding our international reach supports our long-term growth strategy, and we are thrilled to be embarking on this exciting new chapter with TRS's local leaders and more than 5000 employees.'
'By working together and applying Dollarama's strengths in sourcing, merchandising and retail operations, we are well positioned to deliver compelling value to Australian consumers and to drive the expansion of our new Australian growth platform over the long term,' he added.
New strategy and store changes on the way
In a quarterly update to investors, Dollarama outlined plans for The Reject Shop that include “a new price point strategy” as well as refreshed store layouts and designs.
Shoppers may have already noticed some disruption, with greeting card displays left nearly empty in recent months. A spokesperson explained this was due to clearing out the old range ahead of the launch of a new line of cards.
'We’re providing a new and exciting range of cards arriving in September across NSW and WA and early next year across all of Australia, which will be at the same great prices our customers expect from us,' the spokesperson said.
'We’ve spent the last few months selling out our previous range to make room for the amazing new range coming from mid-September.'

The Reject Shop first opened in Melbourne in 1981 and grew to become one of Australia’s best-known discount retailers. After 44 years, the Dollarama rebrand marks the chain’s first major identity shift.
What This Means For You
With delivery gone, greeting cards changing, and a complete rebrand on the horizon, The Reject Shop’s transformation into Dollarama is accelerating. For loyal bargain hunters, the next two years will reveal whether the Canadian takeover brings better value — or leaves them missing the original brand.
