Our parking lot is looking a lot better today after yesterdays sunshine ☀️

We still suggest calling ahead to see if we can handle your request by phone so you don’t have to step out into the cold.

Side streets are still not the best but getting there.

Our lot is plowed thankfully, but it is still got some thin snow. Please call before you venture out to see if we can handle your issue or payment by phone and skip the mess.

We will be closed Monday January 26th due to the weather issues allowing us all extra time to dig out and get back to normal hours Tuesday.

If you have a claim to report and it cannot wait, you can report claims directly to your insurance carrier if need be, or give us a call Tuesday morning when we are back in the office.

Thank You! Stay safe & warm!

Don’t risk getting out if you do not have to. It is still slick out there.

‼️ Bad weather is suppose to be coming this weekend into Monday. It is possible we may be closed due to the weather.

Just a few tips:
➡️ Get prepared, make sure you have your extra supplies of food, gas up your cars & generators in case power goes out. Use all safety precautions if you need to use space heaters as they are high fire hazards.

Charge all your devices and have flashlights, candles and batteries on hand.

Get your “pet safe” sidewalk salt and snow shovel ready to roll!

And gather all your important emergency and utility phone numbers in case you need them fast! Including your insurance company claims phone number for home and vehicles.

Keep pets inside out of the cold as much as possible and prep large outdoor animals accordingly with shelter, food and non frozen water sources.

Open cupboards where pipes can be exposed to extra heat to prevent freezing. And turn your heat up to fight against the lower temps and prevent freezing in your home. 🚿 💧 💦 🥶

Check on your neighbors who may not have as many reserves or ability to do as much for themselves too!

Stay safe and be informed by watching news and weather closely. 📺 📻 💻
