To give you an idea, a standard food collection box holds 250-300 lbs of food. Two full plastic shopping bags hold about 25 lbs of food.
We can arrange pick ups for collections of 500 lbs+. Please use our truck route map to determine when we will be in your area. We can arrange a pick up or delivery only on the days when our truck is in your zone.
Each box holds 250-300 lbs, so please request the appropriate number. A single box folds flat to fit in a car, so if you're able to pick it up, we appreciate your help in saving resources.
Pick-ups are only available for drives that raise more than 500 lbs. We would appreciate organizers delivering food directly to The Mississauga Food Bank or to your local fire station- this will help us save resources.
