Walmart to close overnight to combat COVID-19 spread, restock product

EL PASO, Texas (KFOX14/CBS4) — Walmart officials said they will close all stores that operate 24-hours overnights to stop spread of coronavirus and to restock products.

Walmart announced Saturday that beginning Sunday, March 15th, all stores currently operating 24-hours will be moving to a 6 a.m. to 11 p.m. operating schedule until further notice.

Stores currently operating under more reduced hours (for example they regularly close at 10 p.m. or open at 7 a.m.) will keep their current hours of operation.

Walmart officials said this is to ensure that staff at each store are able to restock products and properly sanitize the store.

They are also going to have armed guards in the store to combat the shoppers.

Good luck with this Walmart. I hope those that stock do their jobs a bit better since no one will be in their way and I really hope those that sanitize do their job right.

Would be nice to know when freight day is so we do not go everyday to find EMPTY SHELVES.

Read the label and see what's in that "juice" dripping off of them. It's not what you think.

Duh, every day is freight day at WalMart. It is naive to think that everything arrives on the same day. WalMart receives 7 days a week.

Can't stock shelves when you have no product in your store rooms.
