Milk delivery has a *muuuuch* longer history than the 90s. Before refrigeration, the only way to get milk in the city was for people to deliver it to your door in the morning, fresh from the farm.

Refrigeration technology has reduced milk delivery by a lot, but some people still use it to support local farms and get super fresh milk.

Edit: Also worth mentioning other reasons like tradition… and also convenience. It’s nice to have fresh milk brought right to your doorstep every day, without having to go to the grocery store.
