New Year's Day: What's Open, What's Closed in Puyallup?

Needing to return a library book or pay a parking ticket? It might have to wait till Wednesday.

Public and government offices in Puyallup will be closed Tuesday in observance of New Year's Day. Other municipal services may be disrupted as well.

Many businesses will be closing early New Year's Eve—Monday, Dec. 31—and will remain closed Tuesday. Check with the businesses by phone to make sure.

If you are looking for a place to eat, be sure to call the restaurant or diner ahead of time.
