What happens if no one picks up my order on Uber Eats?

What To Do If No One Is Picking Up Your Uber Eats Order. If no one picks up your order, you can contact Uber Eats and they'll cancel the order for you and give you a refund. You usually have to wait until it's been a while – i.e. you can't cancel your order if you haven't been waiting very long.
