Holidays

Buckley Disposal strives to minimize the effect and inconvenience to our customers due to holidays. Our services must be coordinated with the local recycling and disposal facilities. We make every effort to place our holiday schedule in our weekly papers the first couple weeks of the holiday month.

I also will have the schedule on my business answering machine the week of the holiday.
