Due to limited staff capacity and resources during the holiday season, River City Food Bank can only pick up food drive donations if the following criteria apply:
- There is a minimum of 500 items that have been collected that needs to be picked up AND
- The pickup location is within a 5 mile radius of downtown Sacramento
*Please note that if the radius is up to 10 miles of downtown Sacramento, we can accommodate a pickup if there are 1,000+ items collected.
