The Association of Pizza Delivery Drivers is a U.S. labor union representing pizza and other ready-to-eat food drivers. This union currently has approximately 700 members across 46 states. The APDD is unique in that it is one of the first unions to be all electronic, operating exclusively over the internet. This union is funded entirely by donations, rather than dues *.

In October 2004, the National Labor Relations Board ruled that delivery drivers may be considered for organization separately from employees in the rest of the pizza store. This was decided on the basis that delivery drivers have vastly different responsibilities and duties than employees in the rest of the store *.

The Association of Pizza Delivery Drivers seeks to increase wages for delivery drivers, mileage re-imbursement, and to enhance safety procedures related to delivery *. They have yet to successfully organize a store.
