Most FedEx services will be closed, but chain stores like Target, Walmart, J.C. Penny, IKEA, Harris Teeter, Petco, Home Depot, T.J. Maxx, Dollar Tree, Family Dollar, Wegman's, Lidl, CVS, Walgreens, Rite Aid, Sam's Club, and several chain restaurants such as Starbucks, Wendy's, McDonald's, Chipotle, Panera Bread, Domino's Pizza, Pizza Hut, and Subway will remain open.

Public parks, public beaches, and national monuments and memorial sites will be open for visitors to enjoy. However, MARC trains will not operate, and Metro will run on modified schedules. Recreation centers may also run on modified schedules.

Schools will be closed in many areas, and all libraries will be closed. The United States Postal Service will be closed, and there will be no mail delivery. The Department of Motor Vehicles will also be closed.

Several government offices will be closed for Labor Day, including federal courts and most government offices (excluding certain areas with mental health and protective services). The U.S. Botanic Garden will be open for those seeking a bit of greenery.

Costco will be closed, but the U.S. Botanic Garden offers a tranquil alternative for those seeking a bit of greenery.

Shoppers are advised to check local store hours before heading out for a quick run on Labor Day. Some local banks may have outdoor ATMs open, but the banks themselves may be closed.

In summary, while many businesses will remain open during Labor Day, it's always a good idea to double-check the hours of operation for your specific location. Enjoy the long weekend, and happy Labor Day!
