Donate Food

Trucking Companies

 

The Hopewell Food Pantry tries to accommodate trucking companies needing to donate undeliverable food. The truck driver or dispatcher should call (804) 530-3546 to make arrangements.

On weekdays, we prefer the driver bring the load directly to the pantry:
903 W City Point Road
Hopewell, VA 23860

On weekends or if the load cannot be delivered to the pantry, we can try to arrange to meet the truck.  If there is a large quantity, we will share the food with up to 4 other pantries in the local area.

Organizations or Individuals

 

If an individual or organization would like to donate food, here are some guidelines:

  • No out-of-date dry goods or open packages.

  • No personal baked goods or items canned in your home.

  • Frozen items are usually not accepted.

  • We take in-date unopened dry goods, garden vegetables, and fresh food items.

  • When delivering your donation, please go to the side garage door. DO NOT GET IN THE LINE OF CARS WAITING TO PICK-UP FOOD. You can park across the street, parallel to the side of our building.

Donations are accepted when our volunteers are present, which are Mon., Wed., and Fri. from 9 A.M. - 3 P.M. If you are unable to drop off during these times, please call (804) 530-3546 to schedule an appointment.
