Each individual household you pick-up for must register separately and provide you with their keycard. Each vehicle can pick up for a maximum of four (4) households. Please have your trunk or tailgate cleared so that food may be placed in safely and efficiently. Food will be place directly into the trunk of the vehicle. Driver’s windows must be down and with all occupants wearing face coverings. If you are unable to open your trunk or if it is not cleared, you will be asked to load your food independently.
