Yes. If you still have a normal Sno-Haus seasonal rental from the 2025/26 winter, the fall return window is open after the stores’ September 2026 reopening and runs through October 15, 2026.
Sno-Haus reopened for the 2026/27 winter season on September 12, 2026, so customers returning the prior winter’s equipment can bring it back during the fall return period.
Do not mix up the two ski seasons
The return dates make more sense when the rental year is written out explicitly.
- 2025/26 seasonal rental: The first return deadline was March 15, 2026. The second opportunity is after the September 2026 reopening through October 15, 2026.
- 2026/27 seasonal rental: The first return deadline will be March 15, 2027. A second opportunity will run from the September 2027 reopening through October 15, 2027.
A September 2026 return therefore applies to equipment from the winter that just ended, not to a new 2026/27 rental.
Where do I return the equipment?
Seasonal equipment must be returned to the same Sno-Haus location where it was originally rented.
If the rental came from Huntington, return it to Huntington. The same applies to Greenvale and Hempstead.
Why is there a fall return window?
Sno-Haus explains that its stores may not accept rental returns during the summer closure period. The fall window gives customers another opportunity after the stores reopen for winter.
What happens after October 15?
The published seasonal rental policy states that equipment must be returned by the final October 15 deadline to preserve the refundable deposit. Returns after that point can result in the deposit being forfeited.
Do not assume that “sometime in the fall” is sufficient. October 15 is the specific published cutoff.
What should I do if I have an unusual situation?
If gear is missing, damaged or tied to an unusual rental circumstance, contact the rental location rather than guessing how the standard rule applies. The signed rental agreement controls the customer’s individual obligations.
Review the current policy on the Sno-Haus rental page.
