Donate Groceries From your Doorstep Aug. 23-27

Free grocery delivery included

Groceries coming, groceries going. That’s the fresh idea behind Stocked, the brainchild of Zach Hite and Broc Crandall (pictured). Though Stocked’s main gig is delivering groceries to your door, for one week each quarter, they up the ante and provide the easiest opportunity to donate groceries and nab fre delivery as well.

From Aug. 23–27, anyone in Stocked’s service area — Traverse City, Elk Rapids, Bellaire, Suttons Bay, Leland, Northport, and Boyne — whether they’re ordering grocery delivery or not, can arrange free pickup of canned and packed food donations from their home or business. Stock will not only deliver that food directly to Food Rescue but also knock off the delivery fee if you order groceries, plus pitch in a personal care item (toilet paper, paper towel, toothbrushes, toothpaste, etc.) for the nonprofit. The last time they ran this promotion, the company donated 678 pounds of food; the goal this time is to get and give over 1,000 pounds.

To sign up for a donation pickup — and arrange a free grocery delivery — with Stocked, head to www.stocked-up.com and use the code DONATE at checkout.
