Dropping off your milk
Prepping for drop-off
- You must be approved as a milk donor with the Mothers’ Milk Bank at Austin before you begin dropping off milk.
- Collect at least 100 ounces of frozen milk for your initial milk deposit.
- Place your milk containers in a plastic bag (e.g., a clean grocery store bag). Enclose a piece of paper with your last name and your donor ID#.
- Tie the bag with your milk containers tightly and label it clearly with your donor ID# in permanent marker.
- Place your milk in an ice chest or cooler (ice is not necessary) and drop it off at the Mothers’ Milk Bank or at the collection site nearest you.
Getting your milk to us
- Live near the Mothers’ Milk Bank at Austin? We have a drive-up Milk Drop-off! Just pull up and ring the intercom, and one of our helpful staff members will be out to assist you.
- Don’t live in Austin? We have additional milk collection sites around Texas. Please deliver your milk to the milk depot nearest you.
- At some milk depot locations, weekend or later day drop-off can be arranged. Please call the specific location for more information.
- Don’t live near any of our milk depot collection sites? Out-of-area donors are approved on a case-by-case basis. The minimum initial donation for out of town donors is 200 ounces, with the expectation that the donor will continue to donate.
- Out-of-area donors should have access to dry ice (for which we reimburse). We supply the coolers for shipping.
