Art Van Furniture invites the public to bring their worn American flags to any of its stores from Friday, May 25, through Monday, May 28, and trade them in for a complimentary, new 3-foot by 5-foot American flag.
The Midwestern furniture and mattress retailer has had strong customer response to its flag exchange program, collecting 4,000 used, faded flags during the program’s inaugural year in 2017. The retired flags are disposed of in accordance with the U.S. Flag Code.
“The public has embraced the free flag exchange program and we are proud to continue the tradition as well as introduce it in our newest markets,” said Ron Boire, president and CEO.
American flags can be exchanged at all store Art Van Furniture showrooms in Michigan, Indiana, Ohio, Illinois, Iowa, and Missouri on Friday from 10 a.m.-10 p.m.; Saturday from 9 a.m.-9 p.m.; Sunday from 11 a.m.-9 p.m.; and Monday from 10 a.m.-10 p.m.
