Wing’s drone delivery is coming to 150 more Walmarts

Wing is bringing drone delivery to even more Walmart stores in 2026. The Alphabet-owned company announced today that its drones will be flying above 150 more locations this year, including in four new cities: Los Angeles, St. Louis, Miami, and Cincinnati.

In June 2025, the companies said they would expand their delivery partnership to 100 additional stores in Atlanta, Charlotte, Houston, Orlando, and Tampa. So far, they’ve launched at several stores in Atlanta, in addition to Walmart locations in Dallas-Forth Worth and Arkansas. They currently operate at approximately 27 stores, and with today’s announcement, the goal is to eventually establish a network of 270 Walmart locations with Wing drone delivery by 2027.

If Wing is able to achieve the ambitious timeline it set out for itself, it would represent a significant expansion of what has previously been a fairly contained experiment in drone delivery. Drone delivery companies claim that by shifting more deliveries to small electric multi-rotor aircraft, fewer polluting trucks will be needed for last-mile deliveries. It’s a similar pitch being made by sidewalk robot companies delivering takeout orders to residents of Los Angeles and other cities.

Wing says that not only are drones spreading to more cities, but that demand for its delivery service is growing too. The company said that its “top 25% of customers ordered 3 times a week, and deliveries have grown 3x in the last 6 months.”

Wing’s flagship drone is designed to handle payloads of up to 2.5 pounds, while its newer models can handle up to 5 pounds. The company says that it has enough battery power to complete 12 miles round trip while cruising at a top speed of 65 mph. The drones use tethers and hooks to pickup small bags and lightweight cardboard boxes from designated distribution sites in Walmart parking lots, and then drop them off in customers’ front lawns.
