ask for delivery vs ask for a delivery

Both 'ask for delivery' and 'ask for a delivery' are correct, but there is a slight difference between them. 'Ask for delivery' is more commonly used when referring to requesting delivery services in general, while 'ask for a delivery' is used when specifying a particular delivery. The choice between the two depends on the level of specificity needed in the request.
