Green Drop also has a drop off site at Friendship Heights, big truck there every day. It's in the old Lord and Taylor parking lot. Easy. The crew is helpful, takes your email and sends receipt. Steph

Been there! If meter not functioning, they get EZ money without having to repair. Of course the merchants lose some biz. Once, some years ago on a Sat., whole east side of the Cleveland Park commercia
