About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At dawn, when most Costco employees were just arriving for their shift, a delivery driver noticed something odd: tire racks seemed to be shifting slightly in the breeze. Curious, he approached and saw that each rack had a tiny note attached: ‘Please return these tires to their correct spot—we’re running low on parking spaces!’ Turns out, it was just a prank from a neighbor who parked his car there overnight.
2. At midnight, while a delivery driver was stocking tires in the warehouse, he stumbled upon an old toolbox hidden behind some boxes. Curious, he opened it and found a strange-looking tire gauge with no markings or labels. Confused, he tried adjusting one of the tires nearby. To his surprise, the tire started glowing softly. Word spread quickly among employees, and soon everyone was gathering around the mysterious light. It turned out to be just an old-timey tire pressure indicator that lit up when properly calibrated—an antique left over from Costco’s early days. The delivery driver became something of a local hero for discovering it.
3. At closing time, when the last customers had left and the lights were dimming, a little dog started barking wildly near the tire center's entrance. No one could figure out why until they noticed the tire walls seemed to be whispering strange messages. Suddenly, an old delivery driver walked up and said, ‘Oh, that’s just Max, our resident canine security guard. He thinks those tires are on sale!’ Everyone laughed, realizing it was just another Costco tale.
4. At dusk, when the parking lot was almost empty, a delivery truck pulled up to the loading dock. The driver, adjusting his glasses, noticed an old tire lying on its side near the entrance. Curious, he bent down to inspect it closer. As he picked it up, he heard a soft thud from inside. Unfolding the tire carefully, he found a sleepy cat curled up in one of the grooves. With a smile, he carried both the tire and the feline back into the store, where they became instant stars among employees. A few days later, someone posted a photo online with the caption: ‘Costco’s newest employee—ready for any puncture!’
