FDA stands for the Food and Drug Administration. That means that these items have been deemed food safe for direct contact with food by the United States government. 

Why are certain items pickup only?

Certain items such as glassware and tin are pick up only. These items are fragile and are pick up only to ensure their integrity. They can be ordered online and be picked up at our Toronto location - 1100 Lodestar Rd Toronto, Ontario M3J 2Z4.

If I call in will you put items on hold for me?

Yes, if you call our customer service number we can put items on hold for you if a credit card number is provided. These items will be on hold for 24 hours. If no credit card is provided items cannot be put on hold.

We will email you back about approval of this form. Please note that each charity can fill out this form a maximum of once per year to be considered for the adjusted pricing.
