In the 1950s you would be hard-pressed to find a house that wasn’t getting milk delivered by the local milkman. Sometimes they would even deliver eggs and butter. As the years progressed, home refrigeration continued to grow in popularity and milk delivery became a thing of the past. This job isn’t completely gone with Oberweis still offering the service in select parts of the United States. Just keep in mind that milk delivery in modern times comes at a premium.
