HURRICANE IDA UPDATES

Get all the details here!

UPDATE 8/30 8:00 am

Good morning, #YNotStoppers! We are happy to report that all Y-Not Stop locations are now open!
We hope everyone has stayed safe through the storm and our hearts go out to everyone in South Louisiana devastated by #Ida. We appreciate your patience as we work through a few isolated issues with fuel dispensers and some slow processing speeds due to internet disruptions.


 


UPDATE 8/29 10:30 am

As you are most likely aware, Hurricane #IDA is on the way. With safety top of mind, here's our plan:

Y-Not Stop Kitchens will stop cooking by 6pm and will CLOSE at 7pm today, Sunday 8/29.

[Notice: times are subject to change according to weather intensity.] 
We believe this will allow ample time for our Team Members and customers to make it home safely before the severe weather begins.

In the meantime, please make your final preparations to weather the storm. We are ready to serve you! Due to high volume of fuel purchases, some stores are out of fuel. Our fuel trucks will be back on the road making deliveries after the storm passes, as soon as it is safe to do so. We appreciate your patience and understanding!

We plan to reopen stores as soon as it is safe to do so on Monday 8/30... weather, safety, and electricity permitting. We will be monitoring conditions constantly. As soon as stores have reopened, we will post here & on Facebook to keep you informed so be sure to follow our page for updates. 

Take care & be safe, everyone!
