In an effort to help protect its customers, Costco announced Sunday it will temporarily implement new weekday closing hours for its locations nationwide.
Beginning Monday, all its warehouses will close at 6:30 p.m., Monday through Friday, and its gas stations will close at 7 p.m.
However, it said some specific locations' hours would be different.
The wholesale giant said its weekend hours would remain the same.
For its members ages 60 and older and those with physical impairments, Costco has special operating hours from 8 a.m. to 9 a.m., Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays.
Costco said it has made some temporary department changes to create more space for social distancing and is following CDC recommendations to minimize risk to its members and employees.
