CLOSED tomorrow, Saturday, January 26, 2019

**ATTENTION RECYCLERS**
We will be CLOSED tomorrow, Saturday, January 26, 2019 due to projected frigid temperatures. Our policy states that we will be closed when temperatures are at or below zero degrees, including windchill factor.
*Please understand that we are not trying to be a nuisance. Our primary concern is always safety. There is no heating source at CARA and while recyclers may only spend a small amount of time outdoors with us, our staff has to be there for hours and it is not safe when temperatures dip that low and there is no where for them to go and get warm.
*Thank you all for understanding and we apologize for any inconvenience this may cause!
