Abandoned Shopping Carts
Arizona state law makes it illegal to remove shopping carts from a store's premises (fines can be imposed). Stores have a legal obligation to retrieve carts that have been abandoned within three business days. Identify what store the cart belongs to and call the store directly or contact the Arizona Cart Removal (ARC) for those stores that use their services.
The stores you must call directly are:
- Albertson's: 321-1212
- Ace Hardware: 325-2432
- Food City: 292-3256
- Wal-Mart: 292-2992
- Family Dollar: 408-4934
The following stores use ACR. You can report abandoned carts for these stores online at afmaaz.org/acrcontact.asp or by calling (800) 843-2278:
