Step 2: Locating Your Existing Order
The first crucial step is to find the order you wish to modify. H-E-B makes it easy to access your past and pending orders.
Sub-heading: On the My H-E-B App
Open the My H-E-B App: Launch the app on your smartphone or tablet.
Navigate to the Home Screen: You'll usually land here automatically.
Find the Curbside/Delivery Banner: At the very top of the screen, you'll see a banner indicating your current Curbside or Delivery status. It might say something like "Curbside at [Your Store Name] at [Your Scheduled Time]."
Tap the Banner: This banner is your gateway to your order details.
Sub-heading: On HEB.com (Desktop or Mobile Browser)
Tip: Look for small cues in wording.
Go to HEB.com: Open your web browser and head to the official H-E-B website.
Log In to Your Account: In the upper right corner of the screen, hover over or click on your name. A dropdown menu will appear.
Select "Orders": From the dropdown, choose the "Orders" option. This will take you to a page listing all your recent and upcoming orders.
Locate Your Specific Order: Find the order you want to change the pickup time for and click on "View details."
Step 3: Initiating the Time Change
Now that you've accessed your order, it's time to tell H-E-B you need a different pickup slot.
Sub-heading: Changing Time on the My H-E-B App
Look for "Change" or "Choose pickup time": After tapping the Curbside/Delivery banner (from Step 2), you'll see details about your current pickup. If you've already selected a time, there will be a clear "Change" button or link. If you're somehow at a stage where a time hasn't been definitively set (less common for existing orders), it might say "Choose pickup time."
Tap "Change" (or "Choose pickup time"): This action will open the available date and time slots.
Sub-heading: Changing Time on HEB.com
Access Pickup/Delivery Options: From your order details page (from Step 2, Sub-heading HEB.com), you should see a section related to your pickup or delivery time.
Click "Change": Similar to the app, a "Change" button or link will be present next to your current pickup time. Clicking this will bring up the calendar and time slot selection.
Step 4: Selecting Your New Pickup Time
This is where you choose the time that best suits your revised schedule.
Browse Available Dates: H-E-B typically allows you to select pickup times up to 7 days in advance. Scroll through the calendar to find your desired date.
Choose an Available Time Slot: Once you've picked a date, you'll see a list of available time slots. These slots are usually in 15-minute or 30-minute increments.
Important Note: Popular times, especially on weekends or during peak hours, can fill up quickly. If your ideal time isn't available, try a slightly earlier or later slot, or check a different day. Flexibility can be key here!
Confirm Your Selection: After you've found the perfect time, select it.
Step 5: Saving Your Changes
Tip: Break down complex paragraphs step by step.
Almost there! Don't forget this crucial final step to ensure your new pickup time is registered.

Tap/Click "Save" or "Select this time": After choosing your new time, there will be a prominent button to confirm your selection. On the app, it's usually "Save," and on the website, it might be "Select this time."
Receive Confirmation: You should receive an immediate confirmation on the screen that your pickup time has been successfully updated. H-E-B will also likely send you an updated email or in-app notification with the new details. Always double-check this confirmation!
Important Considerations and Tips:
Timeliness is Key: While H-E-B is generally flexible, it's best to change your pickup time as soon as you know you need to. The closer it gets to your original pickup window, the fewer options might be available, especially if the store has already started picking your order. Some sources suggest you can add items up to 2.5 hours before pickup and remove items up to 24 hours before pickup. While it's not explicitly stated for time changes, it implies that significant changes might be limited closer to the pickup time.
Calling the Store as a Last Resort: If you're trying to change your time very close to the original pickup window, and the app or website isn't allowing it, your best bet is to call the specific H-E-B store where your order is being fulfilled. The curbside team might be able to manually adjust your pickup or at least hold your order for a short period. Be polite and explain your situation; they are usually very accommodating.
No Penalty for Changing (Generally): H-E-B doesn't typically charge a fee for changing your pickup time. However, if you consistently show up late without prior notification, or frequently cancel orders last minute, it could potentially impact your ability to use the service smoothly in the future, although this is rare.
Order Holding Policy: If you simply can't make your new time either, H-E-B generally holds orders for 24 hours. They may call you to check if you're still planning to pick it up before canceling. If your order is canceled, your money will be refunded.
Holiday and Peak Season Considerations: During busy periods like holidays, time slots fill up extremely fast. If you need to change your time during these periods, act quickly!
Changing your H-E-B Curbside pickup time is a common occurrence, and with these steps, you'll be able to manage your order with ease. Enjoy the convenience of H-E-B Curbside!
