Red Hill Gas station closed

GTO · 04-28-2019, 04:17 PM

I just went by RedHill Irving and they are closed with a sign saying thanks for 33 years of service. The place is emptied out. Anyone know what happened? Also, I had my cars serviced there for years and trusted them, can anyone recommend a good honest mechanic in the area. Sad to see them gone.

I used them also many times. I suspect the owner retired. Whether someone will buy it out I hope so. He made a comment last year to me about having to get in at 6 to get started

With an avatar like GTO I thought you fixed your own cars.

The latest rumor going around is that there is a new hotel going in on the entire corner.

Not verified by anyone.

Has anyone checked at the Moultonboro Land Use office to see if an application has been submitted?

Just a rumour…...no hotel or major change.
I believe that Irving has leased it out to another operator that will run it pretty much as it was.
Would be nice if they installed credit card pumps

Sure. That 12 busy weeks in the summer will carry it all year long!

And the Carhops wearing snorkel parkas and mittens will be a real hit to both of their February customers too!

What could possibly go wrong?

We actually have our first one here on Long Island NY. They do still deliver to your car in the winter but not on skates lol and you can also walk in

This really bums me out. I always got my gas there because it was the only place I knew of that let you pump your gas first and then pay. It was a step back in time. People were always very nice as well. Wish him well in his retirement.

Read in the Union Leader today that Red Hill may become a Rusty project.

Is that one of those roadside store things? Looks like one's coming to Merrimack.

Just a thought...Perhaps the little red restaurant beside them can hop on the band wagon and also start taking plastic!!!
