Moving Costs That Support Neighbors Facing Hunger
Donations in Nashua through a program that reduces moving costs while supporting local food banks and families experiencing food insecurity
Southern New Hampshire faces food insecurity challenges that affect families across the region, particularly during winter months when heating costs strain household budgets. Cool Cousins Moving LLC operates a Food Bank Donation Program in Nashua and throughout its service area, allowing customers to reduce moving costs by five dollars for each qualifying canned or shelf-stable food item donated. The program caps discounts at one hundred dollars per service, and all donations support local food banks working to address hunger in the communities where customers live and work.
The donation process requires customers to provide qualifying canned or shelf-stable food items at the time of service, with each item reducing the final invoice by five dollars. The program reflects the company's commitment to caring for customers and making a measurable impact on food access challenges affecting Southern New Hampshire families.

What the Donation Program Accomplishes
Qualifying donations include canned goods, boxed meals, pasta, rice, peanut butter, and other shelf-stable items that food banks distribute to families facing temporary or ongoing food access challenges. Items must be unopened, unexpired, and packaged in materials suitable for food bank inventory systems, which exclude glass containers due to breakage risk during transport and storage.
Once donations are collected, you receive a discount applied directly to your invoice, and the company delivers all items to local food banks serving Southern New Hampshire. The program allows you to reduce moving costs while contributing to hunger relief efforts, and it provides food banks with consistent donations year-round rather than relying solely on seasonal drives.
The program is available for Residential Moving, Commercial Moving, Packing, Junk Removal, Delivery Services, Carrier Services, and Emergency and Last-Minute Moving services. It does not apply to labor-only services, and discounts are calculated based on items provided at the time of service rather than pledges or commitments made during estimate requests.
Questions Before Starting Your Project
Participation details depend on service type, donation quantity, and understanding which items qualify for the discount program.
What types of food items qualify for the five-dollar discount?
Canned vegetables, fruits, soups, beans, tuna, pasta, rice, cereal, peanut butter, and boxed meals qualify, while perishable items, opened packages, and expired products do not meet food bank acceptance standards.
How does the one-hundred-dollar discount cap work for larger moves?
A customer providing 20 or more qualifying items receives the maximum one-hundred-dollar discount, though additional donations beyond that threshold are still accepted and delivered to food banks without further invoice reductions.
When should donations be prepared for the moving crew?
Items should be boxed separately from household belongings and clearly labeled as food bank donations, which allows the crew to collect them at pickup without confusion or delays during loading.
What happens to donations collected across Nashua and Southern New Hampshire?
All items are delivered to local food banks serving the region where services are performed, which ensures donations support families within the same communities where customers live and work.
Why does the company structure discounts as five dollars per item rather than a percentage of service cost?
The fixed discount per item simplifies participation, rewards customers for contributing multiple items, and ensures the program remains financially sustainable while delivering measurable support to food banks year-round.
