Packaging Assistance Program

By utilizing the Packaging Assistance Program service, participants could have packing materials delivered directly to their location. They were only responsible for the cost of the packaging, not the delivery charge.

One of the largest expenses associated with ordering wholesale standard wax boxes is that the cost of delivery and liftgate services can often exceed the costs of the packaging itself.

TO PARTICIPATE IN THE PACKAGING PROGRAM, PARTICIPANTS HAD TO:

  • Review the packaging types and pricing

  • Choose packaging/quantities based on Product Specifications

    • They did not need to order a full pallet of packaging.

    • They were required to order a bundle: 5 or 10 boxes, depending on the box.

  • Send order to WFHC with date needed

    • Fill out a packaging order form

    • Email or call WFHC (715) 227-1990

      • Order approximately 4 weeks before pickup to ensure packaging is delivered before pickup.

      • WFHC / WI LFPA will provide assistance in ordering and transport of the product.

  • Pick-up packaging from a central locations

    • Central Locations include:

      • Wisconsin Food Hub - E208 Hwy 54 Waupaca, WI 54981

      • Tri County Auction N 1046, County Hwy H, Dalton, WI 53926

    • Participants unable to use a central location, contact WFHC to seek other options.

  • Invoices were made out to the farm

    • Pay Tri County Auction directly

    • WI LFPA was not responsible for this invoice

    • Not paying resulted in this expense being deducted from their WI LFPA product payment

  • Orders were grouped to ship more packaging at the same time.
