Which Family Dollar Is Closing in North Amarillo?

The Family Dollar located at 420 W. Amarillo Blvd., Store #4622, has had a banner up stating that the store will be closing. A North Heights resident posted about it on Facebook on October 22.

What Signs Point to the Closing?

According to other Facebook posts, Amarillo Buy Sale and Trade and Buy Sale Trade Amarillo Area posted on November 2 that local liquidator Christopher Coyne said the store was closing and that he was selling the store's fixtures and commercial refrigerators and freezers. Both posts also state the items must be purchased in advance, and pickup will be arranged after they are no longer in use. Right now, both posts show these items as sold.

There is also a live real estate listing for the building.

As of today, Family Dollar still has the store posted on its website as open and running. However, that could change at any moment. We reached out to Family Dollar, and this is the statement they provided:

After careful review, we have made the difficult decision to close our Amarillo, Texas store (#4622) at 420 W. Amarillo Boulevard in December. A closing sale began October 22, and customers can still save while the sale continues. This decision was not made lightly. We are grateful to the customers who have counted on this store and to the Associates who have served them with care. Customers can continue to shop at our other nearby Family Dollar stores in Amarillo. We thank the community for the opportunity to serve them.
