"The safety of our community is our top priority," DoorDash spokesperson Julian Crowley said in a news release.
"We want to thank the affected Dashers, merchants and customers for their understanding during these incredibly difficult conditions and will resume operations when it is safe to do so."
DoorDash says it will be closely monitoring conditions on the ground and guidance from local authorities before service begins again.
