To our valued customers:

Hurricane Helene made landfall in the Big Bend region of Florida around 11:10 p.m. on Thursday as a Category 4 hurricane. It has now been downgraded to a tropical storm as it makes its way northwest across Georgia. The safety of our team members, guests and customers is our number one priority, so we may temporarily close locations due to local weather conditions.

Once conditions allow, our teams will work to restore service to impacted stores as quickly and safely as possible to help professional drivers and emergency crews mobilize for recovery and relief efforts. In the meantime, we will keep you updated on any changes to our operations.
