A method of delivering goods uses a drone configured for vertical and horizontal flight. A customer can use a customer interface for purchasing a product. The customer also selects a drop zone location. At a base location, the product is placed within a packaging configured to be transported by the drone. The packaging is secured to the drone wherein the drone is configured to release the packaging by a release mechanism. The drone flies from the base location to the drop zone location where it hovers at a predetermined height above the drop zone location. The customer confirms to release the product where the package drops down to the customer for retrieval. The drone flies back to the base location to repeat the method of delivering goods. This method is faster than any other delivery method, it eliminates human to human interaction and minimizes drone tampering by customers and others.
