What's Open, Closed On Memorial Day In Howell

HOWELL, NJ — With Memorial Day weekend and the unofficial start of summer beginning at last, here are some reminders about what's open and what's closed Monday due to the federal holiday:

• All federal, state, county and local government offices are closed
• The U.S. Post Office is closed and there is no mail delivery
• All federal, state and local courts except on an emergency basis
• All branches of the Monmouth County Library are closed

Most retail businesses — stores and restaurants — are open but other businesses, such as professional offices, may not be. It's best to call ahead before you go.

Howell's recycling center will be closed on Monday as well. Those whose recycling is collected on Mondays will have it picked up on Saturday, June 2. For information on garbage collection check with your company.

On Monday, the township's Memorial Day service is scheduled to begin at 11 a.m. at the township's old municipal complex on Preventorium Road followed by a second ceremony in Farmingdale at 11:30 a.m.
