What Time Does Costco Open and Close? Hours by Day

A Costco warehouse does not have one set of opening times. The door time depends on the membership you hold, and the closing bell changes between weekdays, Saturday and Sunday. The grid below comes from the warehouse page for Clearwater, Florida, checked on costco.com in October 2026.

Sunday is where warehouses differ mostThe Monterey Park, California warehouse lists Sunday until 7:00 PM for Gold Star and Business members, one hour later than Clearwater. Saturday used to end at 6:00 PM at most locations; Costco moved it to 7:00 PM in July 2025, so older hour lists you may find online are out of date.

To see whether your warehouse is open right now, use the live status bar near the top of this page; it applies these hours to the time zone you pick. The last Sunday and Saturday entries are the ones most likely to differ by location, so compare them with your own warehouse page.

Costco Executive Member Hours and the Early Shopping Window

Executive Membership costs more than Gold Star, and the earlier entry time is one of the perks that comes with it. Costco's warehouse pages publish two separate schedules: one for Executive members and one for Gold Star and Business members.

DayExecutive entryEveryone elseHead start
Monday to Friday9:00 AM10:00 AM60 minutes
Saturday9:00 AM9:30 AM30 minutes
Sunday9:00 AM10:00 AM60 minutes

Costco began offering this early window on June 30, 2025 and started turning away non-executive members who tried to enter before opening time from September 2025. Closing time is the same for both tiers, so the head start only matters if you want the quietest hour of the day.

Is there a senior hour at Costco?The warehouse pages we checked list only two schedules, Executive and Gold Star & Business. No separate senior shopping hour is shown, so older shoppers who want an early start need an Executive Membership.

Costco Gas Station Hours

The fuel island opens well before the warehouse and, on weekdays, closes later than the checkout lanes inside. That makes it the easiest Costco service to use on a commute, but its schedule is not the same as the building's.

  • Weekday pumps run 6:00 AM to 10:00 PM, Saturday 6:00 AM to 8:30 PM and Sunday 6:00 AM to 7:30 PM at the warehouse we checked. Your local gas station may differ by an hour or so.
  • The gas section of each warehouse page shows the posted Regular and Premium prices. Costco notes that the price on the pump when you buy is the one that counts.
  • Gas stations shut on the same seven holidays as the warehouse. A 6:00 AM start does not apply on those days.

Costco Pharmacy Hours, Sunday Closure and Lunch Gaps

The pharmacy counter keeps shorter hours than the sales floor, and it is the department people most often arrive at too late.

Monday to Friday9:00 AM – 7:00 PM10:00 AM – 8:30 PM
Saturday9:00 AM – 6:00 PM9:30 AM – 7:00 PM
SundayClosed10:00 AM – 6:00 PM
A possible 30-minute pause mid-afternoonCostco's page adds that when only one pharmacist is working, the pharmacy may close for 30 minutes somewhere between 1:30 PM and 2:30 PM. If you are picking up a prescription around lunch, call the number listed on your warehouse page first.

Every warehouse page lists a direct pharmacy telephone number, separate from the main line. Refill requests are easiest by phone, and costco.com has a pharmacy section for online refills and mail-order prescriptions, which do not depend on warehouse hours.

Costco Tire Center Hours and Appointments

Searches for tire center, tyre center and auto center hours all point to the same department: the Tire Service Center inside the warehouse.

Costco states that tire center hours for Executive, Gold Star and Business members match the warehouse hours, so the weekly table above applies. The practical constraint is bay space rather than the clock.

  • Appointments are recommended and are booked at costcotireappointments.com, which asks for a separate login from your regular Costco account.
  • Walk-in tire work is accepted when a bay is free, so weekday mornings give you the best odds without a booking.
  • Each warehouse page lists the tire center's own phone number for rotation and installation questions.

Optical, Hearing Aid, Food Court and Business Center Hours

These departments account for a surprising share of Costco searches, and the honest answer is that the company does not print a separate schedule for most of them.

  • Optical and hearing aid centers: the warehouse page shows only a phone number for each. Eye exams are done by an independent optometrist on site, so appointment availability can be narrower than the sales floor hours.
  • Food court: the page lists a phone number but no hours. Plan around the warehouse schedule and call if you are arriving close to closing.
  • Business Centers: these follow a different schedule from regular warehouses. On Monday, October 12, 2026, the Orlando Business Center showed a 6:00 PM close while nearby warehouses showed 8:30 PM.
Customer service lineCostco member service answers at 1-800-774-2678. For anything tied to one building, such as the membership counter or returns desk, the warehouse phone on its own page is faster.

Is Costco Open on Holidays? Closure Days and Early Closings

Costco closes every U.S. warehouse on the same seven days, and the list has been stable for years. On those days the gas station, pharmacy, tire center and food court close as well.

New Year's DayFriday, January 1, 2027Closed

Days that are not on that list, including Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Presidents Day, Veterans Day and Black Friday, run on the normal weekly schedule. Black Friday is a Friday, so Executive members still enter at 9:00 AM and everyone else at 10:00 AM.

Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve close earlyPast warehouse listings showed a 5:00 PM close on Christmas Eve and a 6:00 PM close on New Year's Eve. Costco posts the exact times on each warehouse page close to the date, and some warehouses differ.

Best Time to Shop at Costco (Busy Hours)

Costco does not publish crowd data, so any claim about the busiest hour of a particular warehouse is a guess unless it comes from live data.

  • Search for your warehouse in Google Maps and open the Popular times chart. It is built from real visits to that building.
  • Executive members have a built-in quiet window: 9:00 to 10:00 AM on weekdays and Sundays, before the doors open to other members.
  • The last hour before closing is a common quieter slot for a small pickup, but the food court and pharmacy may already be closed by then.
