delivery service
A service company that brings goods, especially prepared food from restaurants, directly to the customer at home or to the office.
Heute Abend kochen wir nicht, wir bestellen einfach beim Lieferservice.
Tonight we're not cooking; we'll just order from a delivery service.
This word is a combination of 'liefern' (to deliver something to someone) and 'Service' (service). So it describes a delivery service.
Der Lieferservice für Getränke bringt die Kisten bis in den dritten Stock.
The beverage delivery service brings the crates up to the third floor.
You can recognize the two meanings from the context. If you order 'beim Lieferservice' (from a delivery service), the company is meant. If you are satisfied 'mit dem Lieferservice' (with the delivery service), the delivery as a process is meant.
Ich bestelle mein Mittagessen oft bei einem Lieferservice.
I often order my lunch from a delivery service.
When the company is meant, the word is often combined with a type of food, for example 'Pizza-Lieferservice' (pizza delivery service), 'Sushi-Lieferservice' (sushi delivery service), or 'Asia-Lieferservice' (Asian food delivery service).
Kennen Sie einen guten Pizza-Lieferservice in dieser Gegend?
Do you know a good pizza delivery service in this area?
When the delivery process is being described, adjectives are often used to evaluate its quality, such as 'schnell' (fast), 'pünktlich' (punctual), 'zuverlässig' (reliable), or 'kostenlos' (free).
Der Lieferservice war unglaublich schnell.

'die Lieferung' and 'der Lieferservice' are both connected with delivering goods. 'Die Lieferung' means the delivered goods or the process of having them brought. 'Der Lieferservice' usually means the service or company that brings something, especially food. You can also talk about the quality of this service. The words can be confused when talking about food or orders. If the package or goods are the focus, 'Lieferung' fits. If the provider or the service is the focus, 'Lieferservice' fits.
Wegen des Regens bestellt sie Pizza beim Lieferservice.
Because of the rain, she orders pizza from the delivery service.
