How it Works

Don’t Toss it, we’ll take it!

Move For Hunger works with 1,200+ professional moving companies across the US & Canada.

Each day, they educate their customers about the issues of hunger and food waste facing their communities and encourage their customers to set aside any unopened, non-perishable food items that they don’t want to take with them. Then, on moving day, they pack up their donations and deliver them to the local food bank or pantry, free of charge.

The Most Important Box You’ll Pack

More than 47 million Americans face hunger every day.

Meanwhile, we are wasting 38% of the food we produce each year. By providing people with the opportunity to donate their food when they move, we believe we can eliminate food waste during the relocation process. Why is that important? Because 33 million Americans move every single year. If we recovered just 1 pound of food from each of them, we’d be able to provide 27.5 million meals to families struggling with food insecurity.

Inflation & food insecurity are on the rise

Cuts to SNAP benefits and inflation have had a devastating economic impact and filled the lines at food banks and pantries across the country. More than 47 million Americans including 1 in 5 children are struggling with food insecurity and do not know where their next meal is coming from. 

For people of color and other minorities, the situation is even worse. Hunger disproportionately affects the Black population, the Latinx community, LGBTQ+ individuals, and more. 

USDA TERMINATES FOOD SECURITY REPORT 

September 22: The USDA announced termination of future Household Food Security Reports USDA, which had tracked hunger nationwide for nearly 30 years. The most recent data revealed that one in seven households — 47.4 million people, including 13.8 million children — were food insecure. For more than three decades, the report was been the gold standard for measuring whether a household lacks consistent access to enough food for an active, healthy life. “Eliminating data collection strips away the evidence that proves these programs work, where investment is needed, and who is being left out,” Crystal FitzSimons, president, Food Research & Action Center said in a statement.
