We're moving this weekend and have a few bags of clothes we'd like to donate. Since the last post here is (exactly) a year old, any updates or confirmations of clothing donation bins in the downtown area? We used to bring them to the ones by the Bed Bath\Shoprite but they're gone now. Thanks

I highly recommend My Way Automotive on Tonnelle Ave.. Its the garage attached to the Getty gas station.. My insurance company sent them once when I needed a tow and and I've used them for every repair I've needed since.. The owner Henry is a really nice guy and honest.. Its great to have a place where you know they'll only replace what actually needs to be replaced...

We definitely plan on attending, sounds like fun! Is there a sign-up, or do we just show up with our soup???

Agreed... The food is excellent and actually quite inexpensive for the quality..

Does anyone know if there is anywhere you can get sushi-grade fish in JC? The closest place I know is Mitsuwa in Edgewater, I know its not that far but I hate that drive..

We were walking by today and there was a box truck in front, they were moving things into the restaurant.. We asked someone inside what kind of cuisine it was going to be and he said Asian...

Thanks for the suggestions everyone.. I'm going to check out the few places I've been told don't have street cleaning. I'm also considering "Keep your Weekend" services. If they charge $10 to move, it'll only be $40 for the week (2 cars, each need to be moved twice).. Much less than parking at a lot..

Thanks again!!!

Thanks Robin.. Would you happen to know specifically of any these spots?

My wife and I moved to downtown JC a few months ago and park our cars on the street (zone 1). We're going on vacation next week but we're not sure what to do with our cars. Obviously if we keep them on the street we'll get ticketed when they do street cleaning. The cheapest lots near us are $7 a day, we don't really want to pay $100 for the week just to park our cars. We don't know anyone in the area with off-street parking who we'd be able to leave the cars with. I called the parking authority and although last week the person I spoke with said we'd be able to get a "courtesy" for the week, when I called back today and spoke with a supervisor he said that they only offer those for a day.

Does anyone know of a cheaper way to do this? Is there a street in zone 1 without street cleaning, or is there an inexpensive place where we can park for a week?

Any suggestions would be welcome..

Thanks!
