Queens, NY Weed Delivery Information
Medical-use and adult-use cannabis are both legal in Queens and throughout New York State. Medical-use cannabis became legal in 2014, thanks to the Compassionate Care Act, or S7923. Patients needed to have a qualifying condition for eligibility. Adult-use cannabis took longer to legalize, but the state legalized it with the Marihuana Regulation and Taxation Act (MRTA), or S854-A, in March 2021. Adults 21 and over can purchase, possess, and transport marijuana within the state.
New York medical patients can get medical marijuana deliveries or visit a dispensary. However, adult-use dispensaries are set to open soon, after the state government issued Conditional Adult-Use Retail Dispensary (CAURD) licenses. Although it isn't a sure thing, there's a high likelihood that adult-use delivery within the state will come soon.

Queens NYC Weed Delivery FAQs
Can I get a weed delivery in Queens?
Yes, you can get a weed delivery in Queens – but only if you're a qualified medical marijuana patient. Adult-use delivery is not yet available, although the government is working to make it legal in the state.
In Queens, where can I consume marijuana?
The state law sets the locations where consumers can legally consume cannabis. For the most part in New York, adults can consume cannabis wherever smoking tobacco products is legal under New York smoke-free air laws. It's illegal to consume cannabis in a motor vehicle, whether it's parked or moving. Smoking in outdoor dining areas at restaurants is also illegal. The punishment for consuming cannabis in any of these prohibited areas can include civil summons and/or fines.
What's the limit on how much weed I can order?
Currently, New York state law and your medical professional's prescription dictate the amount of marijuana a medical patient may purchase. Medical marijuana patients may have up to a 60-day supply of approved cannabis, subject to any prescriber restrictions. When purchasing or possessing medical marijuana, patients and their designated caregivers must have their medical registry ID cards with them.
Is it safe to get a weed delivery?
Yes, weed delivery is safe and discreet. In New York, all delivery services need to register with the Office of Cannabis Management (OCM) and provide licensed products. When you meet your delivery driver, simply take the same precautions you normally take when meeting any other type of delivery service.
What kind of weed products can I purchase?
Currently, adult-use marijuana products are not available for purchase in the state. However, there are many cannabis products available for qualified medical delivery. Each delivery service will have its own selection, but many include edibles, flower, oil, tinctures, and more. For those who can make a medical marijuana purchase, simply browse each provider's menu to view its product offerings.
Do I have to be there for a cannabis delivery?
Yes, you'll need to be present at the delivery address for the delivery. Not only will you need to pay your delivery driver for your order, but you'll also need to prove your patient status. During the delivery, the driver will confirm that you have a valid New York state medical marijuana registry card. Your driver won't be able to confirm this or take payment if you're not at the address.
