Trucks For Change launches holiday clean-up drive

MISSISSAUGA, ON – The Trucks For Change Network (T4C) is ready to help you clean house… for charity.

Member carriers and sponsord can donate surplus office furniture, unclaimed freight, and old shop equipment through T4C this holiday season.

T4C is launching the “Clean House for a Cause” program, sponsored by Trailer Wizards, to collect the items that are cluttering up your workspace and put them to good use.

They’ll even take surplus vehicles, trailers, or containers if you’ve got some in the yard.

“This generous support from our friends at Trailer Wizards will help us to launch this exciting new program and enable the trucking industry in Canada to demonstrate, yet again, its commitment to the communities in which it works,” said Pete Dalmazzi, Trucks For Change Network president and founder.

“We felt the funds usually spent on holiday cards and postage would better go to serving those in need this holiday season,” said Anne McKee, executive vice president of Trailer Wizards. “Partnering with Trucks For Change Network allows us to directly support the wonderful work being done by some of our best trucking customers across the country to make a difference in our communities.”

T4C members who wish to donate are asked to make a list of surplus goods, take some photos, and send them to Trucks For Change, which will make arrangements to have them picked up, and leave behind a charitable tax receipt for those who are eligible.

Donors can call Trucks For Change at (905) 844 8658. For more details, see their brochure or visit the website.

Since 2011 Trucks For Change Network and its member companies have distributed over 7 million pounds of donated food and materials in support of charities and communities across Canada.
