Free Egg Preorder Form

What this preorder page is for

Egg Preorder Form collects reservations before you make, pack or source a limited batch. Customers choose from one page instead of separate messages, and can see quantities, a cutoff, pickup time and collection point before reserving.

Preorder Form keeps reservations and item totals together. On the free plan customers pay at pickup; sellers can download customer emails, orders, batches, items, prep lists and discount codes as CSV files. Automated emails and Stripe payments are planned paid features, not available yet.

Who can use this format?

• Small farms selling eggs direct to neighbours
• Customers who want a regular local collection
• Producers matching cartons to a limited weekly supply

Use it instead of spreadsheets, direct messages and market-day notes for one menu and quantity list.

How to take orders in three steps

1. 01

   Create the form. Add Dozen eggs, Tray of 30 eggs, Duck eggs with example prices and a limit for each choice. Include carton count, egg type, collection date and any storage instructions you provide, then set a cutoff that leaves enough time for a recurring collection where carton size and weekly availability need to be easy to scan.

2. 02

   Share your link. Post the page where small farms selling eggs direct to neighbours already look for updates. State the pickup window and location, and let customers reserve from the same limited menu instead of collecting orders in separate messages.

3. 03

   Prepare and hand over. Use the order and prep lists to total each option before a recurring collection where carton size and weekly availability need to be easy to scan. At your chosen pickup window, check the order details as each customer collects and mark the order as collected. Payment is handled in person on the free plan.

Why use a preorder form for egg?

• Set a separate limit for dozen eggs and each option, so reservations stay within the batch you can prepare.
• Keep a recurring collection where carton size and weekly availability need to be easy to scan visible in one order list instead of reconciling spreadsheets, direct messages and market-day notes.
• Show carton count, egg type, collection date and any storage instructions you provide beside the item so customers can choose the right version before they reserve.
• Offer local pickup without online payment setup. Preorder Form is free when customers pay in person at collection.

Tips for a smoother preorder

1. Set the cutoff to close the list when you know the week's collection quantity and before packing cartons. Put the exact date and time on the page so customers know when reservations close.
2. Use the batch guidance for this use case: set a separate cap for each carton size and account for the eggs available that week. Review the prep totals before confirming the final amount.
3. Include carton count, egg type, collection date and any storage instructions you provide in each description. Add ingredient, allergen, size or care details that matter for the product.

Include ingredients, allergens, storage, size or care details; check local requirements.
