Where’s my truck?2024-02-14T21:24:27+00:00

You can generally expect your delivery to arrive within a 2-hour time window. Do not contact your Agency Services Representative to check on your truck’s arrival time until after the scheduled 2-hour delivery window has passed.

Why might my delivery be running late?2024-02-14T21:24:33+00:00

Unforeseen circumstances may arise and delay the deliveries made to your organization. This includes, but is not limited to road closures, mechanical issues, safety concerns, traffic, weather, truck/driver availability, and other stops the truck may be making.

When we are aware a truck will be late, your Agency Services Representative will contact you with an updated delivery time. If you haven’t received a notice and your truck has surpassed the expected delivery window, please contact your Agency Services Representative immediately so they can investigate the issue.

We thank you for your patience and understanding.

How does St. Mary’s calculate the amount of food that is sent to my organization?2024-02-14T21:24:40+00:00

St. Mary’s Food Bank utilizes the chart below to calculate the pallet count per household. Please note, this chart is used to make recommendations only.

Pallet Count Per HH #’s

0-49 HH = (2-4)
50-99 HH = (5-6)
100-149 HH = (7-10)
150-199 HH = (11-12)
200-249 HH = (13-14)
250-299 HH = (15-16)
300-349 HH = (17-18)
350-399 HH = (19-20)
400+HH = (21-22)

What should I do if I receive bad quality of product?2024-02-16T18:30:00+00:00

St. Mary’s Food Bank maintains a 60-40 standard: At a minimum, 60% of produce provided should be appropriate for human consumption; 40% may need disposal. It is the agency’s responsibility to sort and dispose of any product not fit for human consumption.

If you receive product which you feel you cannot store or give out safely, please:

    • Notify the driver that you are unable to accept the pallet. You must accept or reject full pallets in the condition they arrive – you may not choose to keep or reject only certain items on a pallet.
    • On your receipt, make a note of the item you are rejecting and why.
    • Send a copy of your receipt, a picture of the product, and a description of the issue, to your Agency Services Representative within 24 hours.
