At Distribution Alternatives, we believe that logistics is more than moving products—it’s about moving people, communities, and missions forward.
This holiday season, we’re proud to announce that our Lino Lakes facility is participating as an official drop-off location for Toys for Tots, a program committed to delivering joy to children across the country.
For over 75 years, Toys for Tots has worked to bring the magic of the holidays to families who might otherwise go without. Their mission; to collect new, unwrapped toys and distribute them to less fortunate children — resonates deeply with the values we live every day at DA.
Where Our Values Align
Toys for Tots operates on the belief that every child deserves hope, dignity, and the simple joy of being remembered. At DA, our mission is to deliver dependable, adaptable logistics solutions that support growth — not just for our clients, but for our people and communities. We approach every relationship with care, integrity, and purpose, much like the Marines and volunteers behind the Toys for Tots program.
Just as Toys for Tots relies on community support to make an impact, we rely on our relationship-driven approach to build trust and drive success. We understand that when people come together with a shared sense of purpose, powerful things can happen. Whether it's fulfilling orders or fulfilling holiday wishes.
Join Us in Giving Back
Now through December 12, we invite you to bring new, unwrapped toys to our designated drop-off box in the Lino Lakes warehouse. You can find drop-off locations at the Lino Lakes building entrance, and inside the warehouse breakroom. Every donation helps bring a smile to a child’s face and reminds them that they are seen, valued, and loved.
Our team will gather all donations and ensure they are safely delivered to Toys for Tots, representing the compassion and generosity of our entire DA community.

Your Presence Matters Too
If you're not able to donate, know this: your spirit, support, and presence still make a difference. The way you show up every day contributes to the culture of care that fuels our mission.
A Season of Shared Purpose
As we move through the busiest time of the year in our warehouses and across the supply chain, let’s not lose sight of the deeper reason we do what we do. We move goods to support people. We solve logistics challenges so businesses can grow. And we give back, because hope is something we can all help deliver.
Together, we can make this a season to remember — for our team, for the families we serve, and for the children whose holidays will be brighter because of your generosity.
