Wal-Mart is Expanding It’s Drone Delivery Service to Denton

(WBAP/KLIF) – Wal-Mart is partnering with the aviation company ‘Wing’ to provide drone delivery service at their South Loop 288 location in Denton. Drone delivery will be available for select, smaller items for residents within about a six-mile radius of the Denton store, and are expected to fly at an elevation of 200 to 250 feet from 10 a-m. To 6 p-m seven days a week. However, due to no deliveries being made after dark, hours will adjust with daylight saving time.

While the drones do not have a live video feed or imagery, they are equipped with low resolution camera sensors to assist with navigation and help ensure the safety and reliability of deliveries. The Dallas Fort Worth metroplex is the first major u-s metropolitan area with a commercial drone delivery service, which now includes Little Elm, Frisco, and Denton.
