Join us in wishing UL's Mat Saddoris and Catherine Smith, (their birthdays were over the weekend) a Happy Birthday!
The end of summer is coming up and the Labor Day weekend is a reminder that fall, and cooler temps, are not far away. To give our employees a chance to celebrate the Labor Day holiday with their families and friends, we will be closed on Monday, Sept 5th, 2011.
To see a quick infograph as to how the routes will be rescheduled on the week of the Labor Day holiday, please see the picture below.
Basically, all routes that run on Monday will be making deliveries on Tuesday, Tuesday deliveries will be made on Wednesdays and so on and so forth until Friday, when we'll be back on schedule. Although this is the case with most routes, there will be a few that will run on normal days, so please make sure and check with your route driver as to the specific schedule for your deliveries.
As always, if you have any questions or need more information, please send a Tweet ( @unitedlinen ) or call 800-259-6808 (or scan the Smart Tag below with your smartphone to autodial United Linen). We will have a Customer Service Rep on call over the weekend and on Labor Day in case you have any last minute linen/facility service needs.
From all of us at United Linen, have a great Labor Day holiday!
