On each monthly visit you will return the empty box. Clients are responsible for their box and must bring it back, in good and clean condition, on each visit. If it is destroyed or forgotten, another $5.00 fee will be due. As long as the box is returned, you will not need to pay another box fee.
• Identification (every visit) - All clients must show a valid Driver’s License or picture I.D. and proof of residence in the form of a utility bill or rent receipt. This I.D. is required on every visit.
