2024 hasn’t been a banner year for large, national retail chains. More than a dozen have already closed one, several or all of their locations in Idaho and that list continues to grow. 

While there are rumors that some other national brands like Big Lots, Applebee’s and Chilis may close locations this year, so far that hasn’t happened. We can’t say the same for these 13 other brands. Within the next 12 weeks, another brand will join the list.

Say Goodbye to LL Flooring

At least one more national brand will join that list before the end of 2024. LL Flooring, which used to be called Lumber Liquidators, filed for bankruptcy on August 11. Like most other companies that file for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy, the announcement was immediately followed by a list of 94 stores across 31 states that they planned to close to stop the financial bleeding. At the time, the Idaho locations weren’t slated to close.

CNN reports that the company hoped to find a buyer that would keep the brand alive after it’s 30 years in business. However, that deadline has passed and they’ve now made the decision to close all of the remaining stores. They estimate that the process of winding down operations will take about 12 weeks from September 6.

As part of the liquidation process, they’re no longer taking new installation appointments. However, LL Flooring will follow through with existing orders within 30 days. 

Idaho will lose two locations on September 27. However, their websites say they will reopen as "Lumber Liquidators" on October 1: 

  • Boise: 7428 W Mossy Cup Street
  • Idaho Falls: 1574 North Hit Road
