Holiday Pick up policy: If your pick up day occurs on Memorial Day, 4th of July, or Labor Day, we will pick up the next week.
There is no pick up on or between Christmas Eve and New Years Day. If your pick up day falls on New Years Day, we will pick up the following day. (thanks for the holidays)
Bad weather pick up policy: If severely bad weather (standing snow, treacherous ice, hurricane, etc.) occurs, we will skip that week, since there is no guarantee that the weather will be fine the next day.
