Abstract: An online concierge system receives an order from a user including items to obtain from a retailer for delivery to a location. A picker selects the order and obtains items from the retailer. The user selects a time interval during which items from the order are delivered to the location. To prevent the user from selecting a time interval for fulfillment the online concierge system prevents the user from selecting a time interval when a picker may be unable to obtain the items from the retailer before a closing time of the retailer. The online concierge system evaluates time intervals by subtracting a travel time for the picker travelling from the retailer to the location from a predicted fulfillment time for the order. This prevents the time for delivering items after being obtained from affecting whether a time interval may be selected.
