Compliance Guide: Vegas Delivery Limits for Cannabis Customers

Nevada law establishes clear purchase and possession limits for cannabis, applying equally to in-store and delivery sales. For customers in Las Vegas, these regulations are enforced by the Nevada Cannabis Compliance Board (CCB), with limits based on whether the customer is purchasing for recreational or medical use.

Recreational Cannabis Delivery Limits

For recreational customers aged 21 and older, the following maximums apply per delivery order:

  • Up to 2.5 ounces of usable marijuana flower, or
  • Up to 0.25 ounces (7 grams) of cannabis concentrate, or
  • A combination that does not exceed these thresholds.

These updated limits reflect the changes enacted under Senate Bill 277, which became effective January 1, 2024. While delivery drivers can carry multiple orders per route, each individual order must not exceed these limits. The maximum total cannabis allowed in a delivery vehicle at one time is 5 ounces.

Medical Cannabis Delivery Limits

For registered medical cannabis patients in Nevada or those with qualifying out-of-state cards:

  • Each delivery trip can contain up to 10 ounces of cannabis products per patient.
  • Despite this higher threshold, patients may not possess more than 2.5 ounces of usable cannabis over a rolling 14-day period, based on state possession rules.
Daily and Location-Based Restrictions

Recreational delivery limits also include:

  • A cap of 2.5 ounces per person per day.
  • A limit of 1 ounce per private residence per calendar day, even if multiple adults reside there.
  • Deliveries must be made to private residences and not to hotels, casinos, or any gaming establishments.
Dispensary Compliance Requirements

Dispensaries conducting deliveries in Las Vegas must meet the following operational guidelines:

  • Verify the recipient’s ID at the time of delivery: 21+ for recreational, 18+ with a valid medical card.
  • Secure cannabis products in locked compartments within the vehicle.
  • Maintain accurate, trackable manifests for every delivery in compliance with seed-to-sale systems.
  • Ensure drivers only make one route per trip and do not exceed vehicle possession limits.
