FAQ - Personal Meal Prep

Frequently Asked Questions about Michael Rohde's Personal Meal Prep

What areas do you serve?
I primarily serve the Lamorinda and Walnut Creek area, including Moraga, Lafayette, Orinda, Rossmoor, and Walnut Creek (neighboring communities upon request).

How do you handle grocery shopping?
I handle the shopping to make sure every ingredient matches the week’s menu and is as fresh as possible. You reimburse the exact store total plus a small mark up fee.

What kind of containers do you use?
Containers made primarily from cornstarch, so they're eco-friendly, BPA-free, reusable, and freezer & microwave safe.

Can you accommodate specific dietary needs?
Absolutely. Whether you are focused on low-sodium, gluten or dairy free meals or "hidden veggie" dishes for picky kids, we will discuss your preferences (within reason) during our initial consultation.
​
How long does it take?
I can have most meals ready within a few days after agreeing to a menu.

What is your cancellation policy?
I ask for at least 48 hours' notice for cancellations. This allows me to adjust my shopping schedule and offer the slot to another client. For less than 48 hours notice, I ask for 50% of the service fee.

How do I pay you?
I accept payment via Venmo, Zelle, or credit card at the time of service.
