    If it is food product look for a food bank. Other products look for a charity. Or you can tell your company to find some place to drop it a lot of lazy dispatcher push problems off on the driver. It might be their problem when you show up at you next pickup.

    Call the closest walmart and ask to be transfered to the claims department. Those guys know all the charities because they all come to walmart looking for donations.

    The claims people will probably know who can take it the fastest too.

    I know this because I have a family member who runs the claims department at our walmart. She donates TONS of product regularly.

    Go to the closest big truck stop park and then get on the CB and say that you have whatever it is and that who ever wants it come and get it. I did that once with two pallets of paper towels. It took about twenty minutes to get rid of all of it.
