From the article:

In a letter from Bridgeton Landfill President Tim Trost, the company offers a lodging program that will put up residents in an extended-stay hotel at the company’s expense for May 20 through June 14. Pets can be taken to some of the hotels, and pet fees would be covered. If a resident decides to go to a friend or relative’s home instead, the company will pay a weekly stipend of $125 for inconvenience.

Living expenses such a food or entertainment will not be covered, according to the letter. ...
