ASDA Fulwood in Preston is open 24 hours from Tuesday through Friday, while Monday and the weekend have defined supermarket opening and closing times. The East Way store currently opens from 8am to 10pm on Monday, remains open continuously Tuesday through Friday, closes at 10pm on Saturday, and trades from 10.30am to 4.30pm on Sunday.
For a shopper arriving outside ordinary daytime hours, the most useful question is not simply whether ASDA Fulwood is a 24-hour store, but whether the particular day and service support the visit you have planned.
What Is Available at Fulwood at Different Times?
At 3am on Wednesday
The supermarket itself is normally open because Wednesday is one of Fulwood’s 24-hour trading days. The pharmacy, opticians, Travel Money and Drive Thru collection are not 24-hour services.
At 7am on Saturday
The supermarket is open because Saturday begins as a continuation of Friday’s 24-hour trading. Drive Thru grocery collection also currently begins at 7am.
At 8pm on Sunday
The supermarket is closed because normal Sunday shop-floor trading finishes at 4.30pm. The petrol filling station, however, is currently available 24 hours.

The Petrol Station Is the Only Main Service Here That Never Normally Closes
ASDA currently lists the Fulwood petrol filling station as open 24 hours on all seven days.
That makes its timetable broader than the supermarket itself. Fuel remains available during the Saturday-night closure, outside the Sunday supermarket period and on Monday morning before the shop opens.
Drive Thru Collection Operates on a 7am Start
The grocery Drive Thru Collection Point currently operates from 7am to 8pm Monday through Saturday and from 7am to 6pm on Sunday.
During Tuesday to Friday 24-hour supermarket trading, collection therefore occupies only part of the day.
Sunday is different again. Collection can begin three and a half hours before the main supermarket opens and continue for an hour and a half after the shop floor closes.
The ASDA click and collect guide covers the wider process, but the collection slot attached to your order is the time to follow.
Pharmacy Visitors Have Two Extra Details to Remember
ASDA Fulwood Pharmacy currently opens from 9am to 8pm Monday through Saturday and from 10.30am to 4.30pm on Sunday.
ASDA also states that the pharmacy closes from 12.30pm to 1pm and from 4.30pm to 5pm Monday through Saturday.
This means a customer travelling specifically for pharmacy services needs more precise timing than someone making an ordinary grocery visit.
Tuesday and Thursday Are the Longer Opticians Days
ASDA Fulwood Opticians opens at 9am Monday through Saturday.
Tuesday and Thursday currently remain open until 7.30pm. Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday finish at 6.30pm. Sunday optical hours are 10.30am to 4.30pm.
Clinic and appointment availability can be different from general department hours, so follow your booking if you have an eye test arranged.
Travel Money Has a Different Weekend Pattern
The Travel Money Bureau currently opens from 9am to 8pm Monday through Friday, from 9am to 6pm on Saturday, and from 10.30am to 4pm on Sunday.
This makes Friday and Saturday especially different. The supermarket begins Saturday at midnight and remains open until 10pm, but Travel Money is a 9am to 6pm service.
There Is No ASDA Cafe at Fulwood
ASDA currently lists its own cafe as unavailable at the Fulwood store.
This is worth checking before a visit because Fulwood offers several specialist services, including pharmacy, opticians and Travel Money, but does not have the same service mix as every other large ASDA.
George and Scan & Go Have an 8am Start
George Click & Collect is currently listed from 8am to 10pm Monday through Saturday and from 10am to 4pm on Sunday.
The listed Scan & Go handset service uses 8am to 10pm Monday through Saturday and 10.30am to 4.30pm on Sunday. ASDA separately states that its mobile Scan & Go app can be used 24/7.
Fulwood Is Not the Only Late-Night ASDA Option Around Preston
ASDA also lists North End Service Station Express Petrol on Blackpool Road in Preston as open 24 hours every day.
The Express Petrol format is different from a full Superstore, however. If you need the broader grocery range or Fulwood’s in-store services, check the East Way timetable rather than using an Express store’s hours.
The ASDA store locator can help compare those local options.
Quieter Hour and Special Dates
Fulwood currently offers quieter hour from 2pm to 3pm every Monday to Thursday. The supermarket remains open while ASDA reduces radio and tannoy noise.
Bank holidays can change even a normally 24-hour weekday. Check the current Fulwood listing before relying on overnight access on a special date.
