We are only closed 6 days of the year!
New Years Day, Memorial Day, 4th of July, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day & Christmas Day
If the holiday falls on a weekday, then the week is bumped by 1 day. Example: holiday on a Monday, we are closed Monday and Monday routes would be done on Tuesday, Tuesday done on Wednesday - and so on. If the holiday falls on a Thursday, then Mon-Wed would remain the same, Thursday we would be closed- Thursday routes would be done on Friday and Friday routes done on Saturday.
This same schedule also applies for snow days.
We always set the voicemail at 508-612-8093 about weather/holiday closings and post on our Facebook as well.
