I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'haphazard' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'way to cut down on home delivery?' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'way' could be 'rd' (short for road) and 'rd' is found within the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for orderless that I've seen before include "in mess?" , "Like soldiers without commander" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
