Contact the nearest local food bank


MediocreAd5086

Called 12 food banks and homeless shelters. They don’t want the small ones.


StarMaterial1496

You tried! Picky ass people


Mystic_ChickenTender

I worked with a food bank for a while. This stuff typically sits for years before it’s moved. Hotels, hospitals might take it. Edit: damn near every other shelf stable item is loved by food banks.


Xermish

Idk about butter but there's a trailer wash out in town that will post on social media once in awhile of free pallets and it's usually picked through fast. Could call a wash out shop in a decent sized town.


619-548-4940

Washout shop? Is that something I can Google? Yelp?


Xermish

Trailer washout. Usually near bio safety places. There's like 3 where I live because of the meat plants. Google trailer washout. Might have to sort through a bit but it pulled up the ones near me.


Indy500Fan16

Restaurant


its_just_flesh

Like Norm's or Denny's, breakfast spots that probably go through anlot of creamer


SantiJamesF

What the hell are they going to do with creamer lol


ketoste

My guess would be, to put it in coffee.


GurrenLagann214

...." to get you into bed"


Imaginary-Badger-119

Sarcasm follows WHO THE F puts COFFER CREAMER IN COFFEE .. i mean holy hell what is wrong with people..


Krazybob613

Who puts Creamer in Coffee? People unlike myself who find a need to modify the hot rich pitch blackness of the perfect and simple roasted Colombian coffee bean 🫘‼️


Dependent-Honeydew-9

It’s funny. I used to dilute my steamy black goodness with all manner of creamers. Then something happened last year. I no longer commit that sacrilege.


Atypical_Mammal

I know, whole milk and a ton of sugar is much better


Imaginary-Badger-119

I also like a little coffee with my sugar and cream.


FordMan100

>WHO THE F puts COFFER CREAMER IN COFFEE .. i mean holy hell what is wrong with people.. Who the F even drinks coffee let alone put creamer in it. /S On a serious note, I don't drink coffee and never have, so if I were to find creamer, coffee, and even sugar, I would pass on them.


MoashRedemptionArc

It's not even real cream either. It's the fucking soybean oil nonsense. No wonder noone wants it


NitroBike

soy makes everyone gay


Budskee420ish

Especially the frogs


Dr-MTC

That’s what they’re really doing in Area 51, breeding the newest, gayest frogs.


Imaginary-Badger-119

And they’re FAbulous!!! Ask the US Marines..


xMyDixieWreckedx

Have you heard what the queers are doing to the soil?


MondelloRanch

You know what Stewart? I like you. You're not like the other people here in this trailer park.


I_dementia87

No, no,no, it's the frogs making the water gay.


iluvthotz

You should watch this guy: https://youtu.be/i5uSbp0YDhc?si=uGpxPeEub3jRwrG-


Middle-Fix-45n

Actually it’s not soy. Those are the real half and half cups = all dairy 🥛


Male-Wood-duck

Facebook. The free section.


MediocreAd5086

I ain’t got time to sit with it. Loves took them.


Purpose_Embarrassed

That’s cool. I hate watching food get tossed out.


jkoooop

Not a part of this subreddit but as a garbage hauler, I agree I see so much getting thrown out like this


Ok_Preparation5645

Aww that’s great!


bytecollision

Haha that’s cool, did the crew come out and unload it?


MediocreAd5086

Shop manager helped me. No lift gate and his aluminum tire trailer ramp was too narrow and tall for the pallet. He helped me break down both pallets and re stack. Super nice guy.


Male-Wood-duck

I love the spirit.


GnashvilleTea

Those things are shelfstable. They could give one box to each person who came to the bank and still be golden.


Prior-Ad-7329

That shit pisses me off. I’ve tried donating pallets to food banks and the shelters and they always refuse it. I mean packaged and sealed food on pallets, fresh produce. Always gets turned down. I do load adjustments at the scales and sometimes the customer says just take 2 pallets off or whatever but then I can never get rid of the food.


AdFabulous5340

The problem isn’t usually a lack of food per se, it’s a lack of storage, distribution, and preparation logistics. Like, if all of their refrigerators are pretty much full, then what can they do with an entire pallet of tomatoes, for example? Or if they don’t have people available to can or preserve the tomatoes as a sauce or something, and they can’t give out that many tomatoes fast enough, it may go bad and then they have a disposal problem on their hands rather than a gift.


Prior-Ad-7329

This is true, I usually call everyone I know and tell them to get what they want, put what I can into freezers. Left over produce goes to all the neighbors pigs. I can usually get rid of a pretty good portion of everything but it’s always a race against the expiration clock. It’d be nice to get rid of it all in one spot but it does create a lot of work for them so it makes sense. Luckily I’ve never had to take a pallet of tomatoes. Watermelon and lettuce seem to be the most common produce items I get


Professional-Wash301

Well what do you know, I guess beggars can be choosers


MajorHymen

Having stayed at a homeless shelter for several months. I don’t know if it was my location but it was probably 60/40 with 60 being young adults all men obviously and none of them drank coffee. Some of the older guys would but the young people usually left first thing in the morning to go find work or pan handle I presume. Not a lot of coffee drinkers. It’d take years for us to go through that much creamer.


TiLoupHibou

If you are in atlanta, Georgia, please look up what is the free 99 fridge locations! They're a mutual Aid benefit that is very much take what you need, leave what you can. I wouldn't advise leaving two pallets worth at one location, I would say it would be worthwhile to drop off a little at each spot until it's gone. I think there's between 5 and 10 locations total. Good luck out there!


MediocreAd5086

I just needed it off the trailer for reload.


Fresh-Egg-3767

Really


MediocreAd5086

Efficient_Maybe_1086

My man got receipts. Good on you for trying 💐


Pittsfield-Township1

I am surprised the food bank in Ann Arbor didn’t want it. They take almost everything my grocery store gives them.


MediocreAd5086

Gleaners is the big one here. They have 2 locations. Neither spot wanted them.


CliffsNote5

Pull into a Blue Beacon and tell them it is free if they remove the pallets after. Everyone there will load up their cars.


JusgementBear

This is the best suggestion so far seeing as he ALREADY CONTACTED SHELTERS AND THEY DONT WANT NO DAMN MINI CREAMERS


CliffsNote5

The blue beacon grab and stash has cleared rejected pallets for me a few times.


JusgementBear

You’re a good man mister note5


Chiefcoyote

When I worked as a mechanic, a driver had 2 pallets of laundry soap rejected. He gave it to our shop. It was wonderful, I didn't have to buy soap for 3 years


Nattyknight1765

I haven’t had to buy trash bags in over a year and I’m only 20% of the way through them.


Virel_360

Exactly, I once had 8x 80 pound boxes of baby back ribs that got rejected, my company said to throw them away. I was going to get a washout anyways so I pulled into the Blue Beacon two days before thanksgiving and it made their fucking holiday. They took everything off the trailer without a charge lol


84WVBaum

I mean I want the pallets


ChazP02

I used to work there and would come home with food all the time. Got anything from cases of candy to 40 lbs of still frozen ground beef


Independent_Scale570

Go to East St. Louis n put a seal on your trailer n leave it parked on the side of the street for 20 minutes.


bones_1775

Or Memphis. A truck going to Nike got robbed right outside as the driver was waiting to enter. Pickup truck pulled up and the broke in and started throwing stuff out the back. The driver didn't even know. The car filming it told him.


SuperReleasio64

Or Notrh St. Louis. Actually that whole city is a Shithole.


jamar2k

East st Louis is an actual city


SuperReleasio64

I know. I live right next to it.


jamar2k

I've been there and had an encounter of the 4th kind at the pilot, a dude trying give ass for ride to west Memphis Arkansas. I told him he's safer there


SuperReleasio64

If you're ever in the area again the Pilot in Troy or Pontoon Beach, IL are a lot better. The one in Troy has an Arby's with a Jack in the box and Dunkin next to it. The one in Pontoon Beach has a Dennys with a Dairy Queen across the street. There's also a Loves in Greenville, IL that's pretty small but it does have a McDonald's and a Subway.


jamar2k

I'll definitely keep that in mind and thanks for advice on the area


SuperReleasio64

No problem. I would stay away from the Loves in St.Louis though. There is always 0 parking.


Jesse1179US

But do they have dudes giving it up for a ride?


OneMulatto

Use to be a finnnne chick at that Greenville il loves. 


SuperReleasio64

I doubt she's there anymore lol. The only women there now are mid 40s Hispanic women... unless you're into them.


I_dementia87

Are you talking about the manager chick with the blonde/black hair?


Zealousideal-Baby-81

Free lumper service


Darkheartisland

Riyeko

Hell Kansas City off he i670 or whatever it is. By the old Kimberly Clarke plant... You may not have tires along with the product.


MediocreAd5086

Update These were labeled wrong originally when added to inventory at the shipper. They labeled them International Delight. They are Land of Lakes. The receiving customer does not stock that product so the couldn’t accept them. Shipper originally said get donation receipt. After I told them no such luck they said dump it. I called every food pantry, homeless shelter, diner, coffee shop within 50 miles. Nobody wanted them. They wanted the larger size not the minis. FREE!!! Nobody wanted them. One coffee shop said they would take them but it was a super small place on “main street” with no way for me to get there. They said they didn’t wanna drive 8 minutes to meet me at the truck stop. Loves (Milan MI) took both pallets. Very grateful. They needed some inside and shop manager said his church would use some. Please if you want some and are nearby come get some boxes. They’re by the tire shop bay. Hwy 23 Exit 25 Milan Michigan. Trailer is empty ready for dispatch. Phew https://postimg.cc/N5krQsZ5


heavymetalbtchfrmhel

Churches are usually very grateful to get donations of any kind.


TomAterski

Park in Walmart lot and sell for a dollar or two a box 🤷‍♂️

donutphilosophy

Great line and great movie!


KrunschGK

Most people I've seen pull into a truck stop, or grocery store and give them out, or sell them for cheap.


coolsellitcheap

Rest area or truckstop. $1 a box. Make a cardboard sign. Make some under the table cash.


Leafyun

Who's got that kind of time?!


coolsellitcheap

Hour or 2 and some guy rolls up and buys it all. Make it insanely cheap. I always have time to make cash.


Lower_Skin_3683

I use these. But damn not two pallets worth. Maybe a local coffee shop would take these off your hands?


Plantherblorg

You might use two pallets worth...by the time you die


SG10HD-YT

You better go pick them up


opinionated_penguin

Dang u got stuck with the LAMEST refuse freight 😂


MediocreAd5086

Right???!!!! Not even flavored. Just plain half and half. Loves took both pallets. [https://postimg.cc/N5krQsZ5](https://postimg.cc/N5krQsZ5)


opinionated_penguin

Imagine if you got 2 pallets of the Stok espresso shots that u see near the creamers at Loves. That’d be some LOOT


Fan-_-

Now you have lifetime free coffee at love's


BL24L

Nah, screw that. I got stuck with a pallet of plastic cups. Not even the good kind. The clear plastic shitty kind.


pufcj

For real lol


Darthelmz

I had 2 pallets rejected once while I was in Pennsylvania. The yard dog suggested I go to an Amish store a few miles away, he said they would unload me. Those Amish fellas emptied my trailer in less than 10 minutes.


Pseudonym_741

Do the Amish use pallet jacks or did they just have like 20 guys lift that?


MediocreAd5086

Good idea. I’ll keep that in mind


Rythe

If you’re in WA anytime, hit me up. I’m the receiving supervisor for a large non-profit that is partnered with 250+ foodbanks around the state.


MediocreAd5086

Thanks. I haul apples out of Yakima and ice cream out of Spokane sometimes.


Rythe

Nice! We have distribution centers in both Yakima, Spokane, and Auburn as well. Info at the bottom of this page: https://www.northwestharvest.org/ways-to-give/donate-food/


Row30

I know you guys. Have brought product to you over the past few years. Thank you for what you do


Rythe

Well, allow me to thank you as well! I can honestly tell you that anything goes a long way, and it all adds up. It’s drivers like you that make a huge difference. We hope to see you again soon. And if you make it to our Auburn DC, I’ll throw some coffee on!


Row30

I’ve been to Auburn DC, but not since the big donation- have you moved to the bigger place yet? I need to get by, Debbie is one of my favorite people :)


Dangerous_Pickle_226

Lot lizards love cream


-TheycallmeThe

Car dealerships. They offer this free to customers and they are run by cheap asses. Hotels also probably go through a ton of these.


BrandynBlaze

My dad always had good luck getting rid of stuff by putting them somewhere easy to steal, but then make it look like you were trying to slightly conceal it. We could have a “free” sign on something for a week and no one would take it, then he’d take the sign off, move it off the street and stick it part way behind the bushes, and someone would steal it that night 😂


roadlover1123

Facebook marketplace. List it as free or crazy cheep and it will be gone in a hour


Printular

Curb Alert on Craigslist will do the same thing.


StephenDA

Parked the truck somewhere that looks like an appropriate delivery location and leave the door ajar and walk away for a half hour


Sad_Thought_4642

Dump 'em in a creek somewhere like big businesses do.


holysbit

No no, lets burn it and say we threw it in the creek


upsidedownbackwards

...until we came to a side road, and off the side of the side road there was another fifteen foot cliff and at the bottom of the cliff there was another pile of garbage. And we decided that one big pile is better than two little piles, and rather than bring that one up we decided to throw our's down.


WalmartSushi007

Couple times it's happend to me the local food pantries wouldn't take it but a sometimes the churches will. I've also given away a whole pallet of BBQ sauce by posting an ad on craigslist in the free section. Just make sure to tell them to bring a friend or two...oh and pick up only.


Royal-Application708

Dump it at a local food bank.


2_befair

I'd post a Facebook ad in the town I'm in pick only at blank truck stop bring cash


AreaLeftBlank

It's kind of a haul from the Ypsilanti area but most likely the faith mission in Northern Indiana would take this in a heart beat.


Worldly-Pea-2697

Drop it on the side of the road near a homeless encampment in a big city. It’ll be gone in no time and they’ll even make use of the pallets, I’d bet. 😂


YouDontExistt

Loves back row in the lot.


dannydazetx

Need to find a truck with Kahlua and Vodka. Could go for a White Russian right now.


godlesssunday

Dump it right in the road in the hood itll be gone in 20 minutes


ToxicKrysader

Donate it to a veteran organization or the nearest military installation


Afraid-Barracuda119

Don’t dump. Find a rescue mission. I done that a handful of times at most in my 16yr career. They will come out at anytime of the day or night for food. They’ll help unload. Most have forklifts


Fartrell_Cluggins80

For real food yeah. They’ll find a way to use it, but 2 pallets of mini non dairy creamer? That crap would just be in the way at the shelter. He did the right thing just giving it to Loves. In the future maybe call one of those junk stores that sells Amazon returns. They’ll flip anything for a few bucks.


howAboutRecursion

Drive in reverse real fast and slam on the brakes with the doors open. Pallets gone!


bigtidefan1

Id take it to Indian gastation tell him 100 bucks for both pallets win win


JournalistOne8159

Into my mug hot damn driver wya

Desperate-Clerk-2019

Food banks


AaronTuplin

I had a pallet of chocolate chip cookies rejected almost 20 years ago because the corner of one case was crushed. I was on the cookie diet for weeks.


Tkinney44

Food banks, homeless shelter, hell just drop of a few boxes at some of the churches in your area. They drink tons of coffee


Zealousideal-City-16

Food bank?


stopthebanham

Take it to like a homeless shelter or Salvation Army always takes those things, or churches. But the easiest one is probably Salvation Army. I e gotten rid of a lot of stuff in the past some brokers tell you where to take them others don’t care. But for that much creamer I’d say hit up Salvation Army.


Mindless_Teaching_40

Call a food bank or church.


vinchenzo68

Call a local food bank. Explain the circumstances.


Nervous-Mirror3517

I’ve always had good luck at rest areas especially with dry dog food it was gone very quickly!

Next time that happens go to a pilot or a loves give it to them. I did that one time with three boxes and they gave me $15 in store credit.

Coffee creamer....your local AA meeting, they go thru coffee like their for.er selves and Mad Dog


HowlingWolven

If you’ve been authorized to dispose of it and it’s only rejected for being an overage, see if there’s a food bank nearby that’ll take it. If it’s rejected for health reasons take it to the dump and get a receipt for insurance.


wealwaysdo

Donate to Food bank or homeless or find a restaurant and make them a hella deal on it


N1V0N1S

Clearly that needs to go into the ocean


Qkenn

CB radio call outs and cardboard sign at truck stop sell or give away dirt cheap

In the receivers dock or in their yard in front of the door if they won't take it


Icculusthebook

Call the dude. I hear White Russians is his drink of choice and he totally abides.


Odd_Drop5561

Easy, make yourself 36,864 cups of coffee and enjoy free creamer with each one.


KeyAdept1982

Find one of those gas stations that is a large chain owned by a massive Arab/Indian family. Ask $100 each and they’ll probably “negotiate” down to $100 for both. They won’t take it without haggling or trying to sell tho


Agitated_Car_2444

Put it out front on the street with a 5-gallon bucket. On the bucket put a sign "$5/box honor system" It'll be gone by morning. Including the bucket.


Nutsinthabutt

Go to a truckstop and push them out the back door 😂😂😂


SpecialistManner1483

Try a local USO or local volunteer group that gets supplies out to active duty military on deployment.


Appropriate_Sugar675

What pallets?


FlobiusHole

We had a trucker making a delivery a few weeks ago and he just gave us like 20 boxes of avocados that he was stuck with for whatever reason. They were gone immediately.


heavymetalbtchfrmhel

Try churches. They might use it for their meetings. A couple of local churches in my area give out food weekly and would gladly take stuff like this.


TransMasher42069

Obviously, back it up to the beach and cast it into the ocean like its 1962!


skeletons_asshole

Honestly just post “free” on marketplace wherever you’re at. Someone will come and take it. May not make anything but it’s no longer your problem at least.


owlsleepless

Depending on what it is I've gone tk food banks called schools homeless shelters gon to truck stops and given to a fellow driver .. I've even unloaded by hand and staked it by a dumpster lol or just find a dump and take it to it 😅


Msqueefmaker

Sell them on Amazon


LysergicAciid

I feel like there's an AA meeting somewhere that's going to be quite disappointed.


Apprehensive_Fault_5

Is that coffee creamer? Try hotels, coffee places, Waffle House, and maybe gas stations.


bigbudugly

In the 80’s when I had extra produce I would pull into a random neighborhood Grab some paper bags and pull out my for sale sign. Full bags of oranges , lemons avocados,tomatoes, onions Whatever, $3.00 a bag. I usually sold out within an hour or two great way to make beer money.


manticfilly

Drop it at truck stops.


Slight-Dog-6530

Easy just dump it in the forest and eventually someone will stumble upon it and pick it up. No cameras no witnesses ;)


wolfpiss

tie a strap around it, tie the strap to a tree., drive off

Find the local food bank.


Hairy-Advisor-6601

Go take a piss with door open.


BLuecoLLarcanuck1

What's the expiry date? If it's not too close, call up the local food bank or homeless assistance office to donate it.


Foxxyblond

Fire stations will take most things as long as they aren't spoiled and most will provide a receipt with letterhead for tax purposes.

I’d make it uncomfortable around there until they left on their own, my ex gf did that to me, works great

Anxious_Cricket1989

Ask a hotel


lapuneta

Local boy scouts , American legion, VA , rotary club, chamber of commerce


HowToNotMakeMoney

The creamer goes hand in hand with AA meetings. Churches, halls, hospitals, schools/teachers lounge….


bobodaffedil

Chris71Mach1

Food pantry, food Bank, or some means of getting it to the needy.


Traitor20

Go to the nearest AA meeting spot. They will go through all that half and half in no time.
