We keep our meat delivery process simple: you order online, we check your route area, and we bring your order on the next scheduled delivery day in our refrigerated trucks.

For customers in Oklahoma City, Tulsa, nearby towns, and parts of the corridor between them, our system is built around planned route days, not same-day drop-offs. Orders stay at or below 40°F, delivery windows are sent by text or email, and if your address is outside coverage, Cleveland pickup is the backup option.

Here is the short version of what you can expect:

  • Coverage area: about a 50-mile radius from Cleveland, OK, with routes reaching toward Tulsa, Stillwater, Bartlesville, OKC, and towns in between
  • Delivery timing: your order goes on the next route day for your area
  • Window notice: we send your delivery window the day before or the morning of delivery
  • Cold chain: products are packed cold, loaded into pre-cooled refrigerated trucks, and kept cold through the route
  • Pickup option: available at 300 S Broadway St, Cleveland, OK 74020, Monday through Saturday, 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.

We recommend one simple first step: enter your ZIP code at checkout and choose delivery to see if your address qualifies.

Here is what matters most before you place your first order.

  • We serve planned route areas, not on-demand delivery zones.
  • We offer two ways to shop: pre-built bundles or individual cuts.
  • We suggest being available for the full delivery window, since traffic and weather can shift timing.
  • We can set up a cooler drop-off if you contact us ahead of time.
  • We offer pickup in 1 to 3 days for most standard orders, while larger bulk orders often take 4 to 5 days or more.

If you want the fast read: delivery is best for larger planned orders on your route day, pickup is best if you want tighter timing or live outside our delivery area.

Our Delivery Areas: Oklahoma City, Tulsa, and the Rural Corridor

We run our routes from our Cleveland, Oklahoma facility, and we cover about a 50-mile radius.

Where We Deliver Around Cleveland, Tulsa, and Stillwater

From there, we head northeast toward Tulsa and north toward Stillwater and Bartlesville.

For Tulsa-area customers, that includes Tulsa and nearby communities like Broken Arrow, Owasso, Bixby, Jenks, and Glenpool.

Once we know your area is covered, the next move is simple: check out and get your delivery day.

How We Serve the Oklahoma City Area on Route Days

Oklahoma City-area orders run on scheduled route days, not on-demand delivery.

We plan OKC stops ahead of time. Areas like Edmond, Bethany, Del City, Choctaw, and Arcadia are inside our coverage area.

How We Reach Rural Homes Between the Metros

We also deliver to towns between Tulsa and Oklahoma City on scheduled route days.

That includes places like Cushing, Drumright, Bristow, Perry, and Chandler. We deliver to rural and semi-rural homes on the route day assigned to that area.

To check if your address qualifies, select "Delivery" at checkout and enter your ZIP code. If delivery is not available for your address, pickup is the fallback. Next, we’ll walk through how ordering and delivery windows work.

How Ordering and Scheduling Works: From Checkout to Delivery Day

Once your area is covered, ordering takes just a few minutes.

How to Place an Order Online

Here’s how the order moves from checkout to delivery day.

We give you two starting points on our website.

The easy order page is for customers who want a pre-built bundle, like a family freezer pack or a grill bundle.

The buy meat page is for shoppers who want to pick specific cuts, like ribeyes, ground beef, or pork chops.

Add your items to the cart, then head to checkout. Enter your delivery address and choose home delivery at checkout.

After that, you’ll see an on-screen confirmation. We also send an email with your order number and route day.

After checkout, we place your order on the next route day for your area.

How We Assign Delivery Days and Share Your Window

We assign each order to the next available route day for that area, then we send the delivery window as the date gets closer.

The day before delivery, or the morning of delivery, we send a window by email or text. For example, that might be between 1:00 PM and 5:00 PM.

That time range is based on our route schedule. We suggest being available for the full window, since trucks can run a little early or a little late due to traffic or weather.

How to Prepare Before the Truck Arrives

A little prep helps the handoff go smoothly.

  • Clear freezer space before the truck arrives
  • Keep your phone nearby
  • Add gate codes or access notes at checkout
  • If you won’t be home, contact us ahead of time to set up a cooler drop-off

From there, we keep your order cold until it reaches you.

How We Keep Orders Cold During Transit

How We Pack and Load Orders Before Departure

We keep every order cold from the moment packing is done.

Each order begins at our Cleveland, Oklahoma processing facility. After we process your cuts, we package them, label them, and hold them cold until delivery day. We keep them at or below 40°F so they go onto the truck cold and stay safe during transit.

Before loading, we check that every package is fully chilled. Then we load into pre-cooled refrigerated trucks with the refrigeration units already running and the doors kept closed. That part matters. Refrigerated trucks maintain temperature, they do not chill warm product.

How We Maintain Temperature on the Road

We run continuous refrigeration for the full route. We depend on the truck, not the weather, to keep your order cold.

Route planning plays a big role here. We group stops in a logical sequence so the truck can run a tight loop instead of doubling back. That cuts down total time on the road. It also reduces how often we open the cargo doors.

At each stop, we keep your order staged inside the truck so we can hand it off fast and close the doors fast.

Perishable food should not stay above 40°F for more than 2 hours, or 1 hour if temperatures are above 90°F. We built our Tulsa–OKC route pattern to stay within that window. This includes our scheduled meat delivery to Broken Arrow and other surrounding communities.

Cleveland Pickup Option and Key Takeaways

How Pickup Works at Our Cleveland Store

If your address is not on one of our routes, Cleveland pickup gives you access to the same products without waiting for a delivery day.

If you want to skip route-day delivery, you can pick up your order at our Cleveland store, 300 S Broadway St, Cleveland, OK 74020. This is the same Cleveland facility where we process, package, and stage delivery orders.

Store hours are Monday through Saturday, 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., and Sunday closed.

Most standard orders are ready in 1 to 3 days. Bulk orders, like quarter-beef, half-beef, or half-hog orders, usually take 4 to 5 days or more.

We will send an email when the order is ready.

When customers arrive, they can use our drive-thru lane for a quick handoff from the vehicle, or come inside to browse the retail counter and talk with our team.

Home Delivery vs. Cleveland Pickup

We recommend home delivery for route-day convenience. We recommend Cleveland pickup for tighter timing or for addresses outside our delivery area.

Home Delivery Cleveland Pickup
Timing Scheduled route day, with a delivery window shared after checkout During store hours once the order is ready
Convenience Meat arrives at your front door Drive-thru or in-store handoff at Cleveland
Best fit Planned, larger orders within Tulsa, OKC, or the rural corridor Flexible timing, smaller orders, or customers outside route areas

If customers live on one of our routes, home delivery is a good fit for planned orders. If they need tighter timing or live outside the route area, Cleveland pickup is often the better choice.

Key Takeaways for First-Time Customers

Here is what matters most when placing a first order:

  • Cleveland pickup is available at 300 S Broadway St, Cleveland, OK 74020, Monday through Saturday, 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., with drive-thru service.
  • Customers can start with an easy order or buy meat, then choose delivery or pickup at checkout.

FAQs

What ZIP codes qualify for delivery?

Wild Country Meats delivers within a 50-mile radius of its facility. That service area covers both the Tulsa and Oklahoma City metro areas, along with the rural stretch between them.

The company does not publish a list of ZIP codes. Areas served include Bixby, Broken Arrow, Collinsville, Jenks, Owasso, Sand Springs, Sapulpa, and Skiatook.

To check whether your address is covered, visit the Meat Delivery Tulsa or Meat Delivery Oklahoma City pages.

Do I need to be home for delivery?

Usually, yes. We recommend being home during the delivery window of 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. so we can deliver your order directly to you.

If we know you won’t be available, we suggest setting up cooler space outside ahead of time. A cooler packed with ice helps keep your order cold until we can bring it inside.

How far in advance should I order?

For Oklahoma delivery, we ask that you place your order 7–10 days in advance.

For pickup, please allow:

  • 4–5 days for smaller orders
  • 5–7 days for larger, prep-heavy orders like sides, quarters, or bulk bundles

For a nationwide Deluxe Family Pack ship order, place your order by end of day Sunday for Thursday delivery.
