ASDA Blackwood on High Street normally opens from 8am to 10pm on Monday, 6am to 10pm from Tuesday through Saturday and 10am to 4pm on Sunday. The Superstore is at High Street, Blackwood NP12 0NT.
For Blackwood shoppers, the biggest practical advantage is the early 6am start on five consecutive days. The branch also has opticians and drive-through grocery collection, but no ASDA pharmacy, cafe or travel money bureau is currently listed.
Blackwood Is Best Suited to Early Tuesday-to-Saturday Shopping
Tuesday through Saturday all begin at 6am. That gives Blackwood a two-hour head start compared with Monday and a four-hour head start compared with Sunday.
This can make the branch useful for shoppers who prefer to buy groceries before the main daytime shopping period.
The Weekly Opening Pattern
- Monday: 8am to 10pm
- Tuesday: 6am to 10pm
- Wednesday: 6am to 10pm
- Thursday: 6am to 10pm
- Friday: 6am to 10pm
- Saturday: 6am to 10pm
- Sunday: 10am to 4pm
The evening timetable is simple because the store closes at 10pm Monday through Saturday. Only the morning opening time changes.
Monday Is the Morning Exception
A shopper who normally uses the 6am opening should pay particular attention to Monday.
The store does not normally open until 8am at the start of the week. Arriving at 6.30am would therefore work on Tuesday or Saturday but not on Monday.
Drive-Through Collection Does Not Match the 6am Start
Blackwood has a drive-through grocery collection point currently listed from 7am to 8pm Monday through Saturday and from 7am to 6pm Sunday.
On Tuesday through Saturday, the supermarket therefore opens an hour before the collection point.
Sunday reverses the relationship dramatically. Collection begins at 7am, while the supermarket does not open until 10am.
A booked collection time still governs when you should arrive. The ASDA Click and Collect guide explains this distinction.
Opticians Open Later Than the Supermarket
ASDA Blackwood currently has ASDA Opticians.
The opticians is listed from 9am to 6.30pm on Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday, from 9am to 7.30pm on Tuesday and Thursday, and from 10am to 4pm Sunday.
That creates a three-hour difference on the 6am shopping days before optical services begin. An early grocery visit is therefore not the same as an early opticians visit.
No Pharmacy Is Currently Available
ASDA currently marks its pharmacy as unavailable at Blackwood.
The same branch listing also marks the ASDA cafe and travel money bureau as unavailable.
This gives Blackwood a different service profile from some other large ASDA Superstores. A branch can have opticians and extensive grocery hours without providing every specialist service.
Sunday Is Much Shorter Than Saturday
Saturday runs from 6am to 10pm, while Sunday is normally 10am to 4pm.
That is a ten-hour reduction in the supermarket trading day. A shopper used to visiting Blackwood very early on Saturday therefore needs a completely different plan on Sunday.
Accessibility Facilities at the Branch
ASDA Blackwood currently lists facilities including accessible toilets, adapted trolleys, assisted shopping, baby changing, a car park, cash machine, hearing loops, mobility scooters and wheelchairs.
If a particular facility is essential to your visit, check its current availability rather than assuming it operates identically throughout the store’s 16-hour trading day.
Quieter Hour Comes After the Early Start
The branch currently offers a Quieter Hour between 2pm and 3pm Monday through Thursday.
ASDA reduces background noise during that period while the store remains open to ordinary public shopping.
Bank Holidays Can Change the 6am Pattern
An ordinary Tuesday or Saturday opening at 6am should not automatically be expected on a special trading date.
ASDA can publish Holiday Hours that replace the normal timetable around Easter, Christmas, New Year and other bank holidays.
Use the ASDA store locator close to the date, particularly if your journey depends on the store opening very early.
