"This service will allow customers to receive their order without coming in contact with the delivery staff. This feature has been introduced as an additional precautionary measure to ensure the safety of both the customers and the delivery staff," the company said in a statement.

All delivery bags for both McDelivery service and third-party delivery are sealed with tape and the bill is stuck on the back of every bag.
