Is Publix Open on Labor Day? Here's What Grocer Chains Are in Operation
Most major grocery stores will keep regular hours, while Aldi and Sam's Club close early and Costco shuts its U.S. warehouses.
- On Monday, September 7, 2026, most major retailers and grocery stores remain open for Labor Day, though Costco is closed for the federal holiday.
- The holiday's roots trace back to the late 19th century, focusing on labor rather than summer's end; as a federal holiday, municipal sanitation companies push residential trash collection back one day for the entire week.
- Roughly 83% of consumers celebrating the holiday expect to purchase food, according to industry surveys. Major chains like Walmart and Target maintain regular hours, though Aldi closes early at 6 p.m.
- Government offices, public schools, and financial institutions including the New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq are closed today. The USPS will not perform standard ground pickup or delivery, though Priority Mail Express remains operational.
- Operational hours for liquor stores depend on local state laws, with government-run ABC stores often closing early around 5 or 6 p.m. Consumers should verify schedules on their city or county website before shopping.
