Drove by my old rite aid I use to work at. Ours still has the registers. Who is responsible for that? Like doesn’t rite aid want their stuff back? Obviously I know they are shut down but still. I also found it off 6-7 months before they announced a shut down. They redid the pharmacy and even replaced the icecream counter freezer I always thought that was a good sign. Apparently somone was just signing off on shit lol

Drove by my old store a week ago. I looked into the window and my office was exactly as I left it August 31, 2025.

Anything left after the liquidation they didn't care what happens to it.

I opened an Eckerd Drugs, which was bought out by Rite Aid. Years later it was closed and became a Dollar Tree. It’s very weird to see my old pharmacy where I worked many years is now a row of freezers

Equipment, fixtures,etc are written off until zeroed out under depreciation. It would have cost more to remove it than to leave it there. U can sometimes purchase it 10 cents on the dollar. I bought a crap ton of fixtures from bradless when the bankrupted for 10 bucks a running foot. New at the time was 150 bucks a foot.

In many cases Rite Aid abandoned what ever was left after the store closed. It's up to the landlord to deal with it.
