Abandoned Sheetz - Plum, PA

Abandoned Sheetz - Plum, PA. It's not often Sheetz closes down locations without the intention of demolishing and building a new store to today's specifications. In this case, this one closed for a new location just up the road giving us a rare chance to take a look at this older and outdated location.

[@HeatherHugs]

Wow, I don’t think I’ve ever seen an abandoned Sheetz before

[@chrisgerstel7197]

they built a new sheetz up the street from this location

[@DrummerPainterDogNutPGH]

I love how clean the inside is for an "abandoned" location. I think that I would use the term, closed instead.

[@MindOfKaz]

As a fellow yinzer I have never seen this old style of sheetz. It’s crazy how successful they are, they usually only close one down to put a new one up the road as they did up in McCandless years ago with the tiny sheetz.

[@markamtower37]

There’s an old Sheetz still active in Belington, WV. Probably won’t be around much longer but it’s still really neat. Even still has the old 24 hour after hours window.

[@trevorlbeck]

i cant wait for the one in my town to open, they are finished, just hiring and maybe doing inside. also thanks for making a video in my town at the Rax here in Lancaster, Ohio. we welcome you back!

[@tuckerhuff692]

There’s an abandoned sheetz in Roanoke, Virginia to 0:06

[@spikeworks]

surprised they didnt take off the sign. they dont even put them up on new locations until they are fully built. they are super protective

[@broken_clock_right_twice]

Well they're getting lazy and resting on their laurels

[@zachdproductions123]

I drove past this Sheetz recently. Was surprised to find out they closed and moved down the road.

[@ericbonanno5214]

An abandoned Sheetz in PA is wild to me. Also I never guessed there was something named Presque Isle anything that far south. Next to one of our Sheetz up in Meadville is an abandoned Kings building after they closed down. It's sorta fenced off and where it's located they might do something with it but it's been almost a year. 🤷‍♂️

[@Urban_nation.]

Wow that is something you don’t see to often thanks for sharing this amazing video wallie

[@AmongTheUnknown]

They reopened a sheetz right at the former Kings location

[@somehowhere1]

Neville island? because i believe they have one right by the Kings and speedway

[@Sketchy_Cart6]

An abandoned Sheetz must be extremely rare to find.

[@0_O_0001]

I bet the reason the doors are chained shut is because since they were open 24/7/365 nobody ever locked the door and the key has since been misplaced.

[@exploring_unleashed]

They probably never had a key because there wasn’t a reason to lock the doors.

[@BrettLeavelle]

@@exploring_unleashed Convenience store etiquette is to always lock the doors after a robbery, should one happen. That's an insurance thing.

[@Videokid703]

I used to drive past this sheetz visiting my paternal grandparents when they lived in Murrysville

[@RyGuy0520]

There's soon to be 3 sheetz locations in strongsville ohio

[@toddament8035]

When this location opened you had to fill out a paper order form with a pencil and hand it to them. This location was land-locked and expansion was denied. The new location is now where the former King's was just a few miles up the road. I wouldn't be surprised if this became a Par-Mar Sunoco or BP location just like Springdale.

[@gaymersipe9984]

The one in Berkeley Springs, WV sat empty for a long while, then someone bought it and renovated it into an insurance office / pediatricians office. The pediatricians office has since left, but still an active insurance company.

[@wnytrashtrucks]

There is an abandoned one in Coudersport PA has well. Similar story, they built a bigger one just up the street.

[@charlestonpinballarcade]

I can’t remember if this location was updated from an original or they closed the old location and then opened this one? It was crazy seeing “old school” sheetz locations in some of the run down areas around Pittsburgh and then pulling up on the new fancy locations. I went out to one of the biggest Sheetz in Altoona years ago when Sheetz started expanding like crazy with the big seating area that looked like a real restaurant setup.

[@Turkelton]

I used to work for sheetz with a third party inspection company. Alot of the times when they wanted to update the stores or in most cases add the Beer cave and didnt have the land they would build locally and close up the old location. Remove tanks and pumps and even paint the building flat gray after a while. They usually never get rid of said property either to keep any chance of people moving in unless its leased. They just built one directly next to there old location in Clarks summit PA and my northern PA route had a few recently closed locations like such. Very weird and eerie usually lol.

[@craigbathurst1185]

The Sheetz on route 272 and route 30 in Manheim Township Lancaster County was closed and rebuilt. They went down to the bear skeleton of the building and expanded it and rebuilt it and it’s still operating today.

[@adventureswithnubby]

holy old school sheetz. thanks for the upload

[@joshuabennett723]

Watching this while eating sheetz

[@jminnick105]

There is one in Hagerstown along with 4 others that are being used for other stores

[@richyoung9061]

The one in Bethlehem, PA was only 18 years old and they leveled it to build a new location. Not a remodel, a total leveled and new footprint and different design. New tanks, Pumps, and car wash.

[@bretroberts5013]

They did the same in Morgantown, WV. There are 2 Sheetz within 2/10 of a mile of each other.

[@tjw11296]

Use to go to this Sheetz all the time

[@brandonb.6099]

Have never seen an old Sheetz like this one; glad you filmed it, Wallie.

[@purplepup8897]

The craziest thing about it is, this is actually one that was re done within the last 25 years. If I remember correctly, there is a real old one up in Emporium that is still in service though

[@lucashawks5384]

Ive never seen a modern abandoned sheetz just the one he covered on his channel in PA I think. That one shit down to build their modern jumbo size.

[@Iggypop303]

Great video 😊 no horn this time :-( can’t wait for the next one 😊

[@timothywalker4563]

I think they should open this place as a coffee shop and call it “Diesel’s” (fuel for your brain)😏

[@slackingpacking]

Sheetz just opened by me, they are a pretty cool gas station however their food isn’t the best. Maybe it was just that location. Quiktrip just opened in Dayton and that’s very similar to Sheetz and it’s a pretty cool gas station.

[@WallieB26]

Sheetz is okay. I'm very very familiar with QT. They're all over DFW and Texas in general. And NC and SC. Their food is okay. Honestly not any better than Sheetz.

[@slackingpacking]

@@WallieB26 Overall, the only gas station nobody can beat is Buc-ee’s. I love that place. I still need to make a trip down to Richmond again to visit.

[@Commentleaver-c6x]

Holy sheetz

[@hollywd269]

If you happen to pass through Hagerstown, md in your travels off of exit 5B on 81 behind the Valley Mall is a abandoned Golden corral, back story is the people who own the mall property apparently own the same property had raised the lease so high the Golden Corral company decided to bail...

[@shannonyoast6906]

As always great video 👍

[@ITSLockKey]

That Sheetz was a pain to get through the lot. Sheetz claims they don't have any keys because they never close.

[@dennyskou6218]

@WallieB26 You are awesome, I love the respect you have for the properties you show and also for neighboring businesses! Keep up the great content, and safe travels as well!

[@dvxur]

Thats a cool looking design

[@MrGgffggffggff]

For the life of me I don't know why Sheetz stopped making the canopies go to the door. When it's pouring id always go to sheetz to get gas and food and stay dry

[@mattdarkes2393]

They tore down the Sheetz at Sinking Spring, Pennsylvania on 422. They are currently building a updated version. The current version is soon done. Sinking Spring is West of Reading in Berks County.

[@harryhart3394]

Wow! What the heck is going on in Plum? Too much unnecessary change.

[@joshuamerrill2422]

Theres an abandoned Sheetz in Roanoke VA thats boarded up they relocated down the road 5 years ago and the building and punps etc is still there

[@chadbollinger2562]

Hay wallie don't for get the one you did in cranberry twp ya did the old sheetz there

[@WallieB26]

Yep. That was a long time ago. That, and the one in Berkeley Springs, WV.

[@bryanritts213]

Amazing how they totally rebuild these every 10 years or so. Seems like a waste of money.

[@epicwinfacepie]

Bc of the tank

[@travisshiflett6822]

The one where I live wanted to move a block away..but they tore the old one down and in 2 months we had a new one with the same nasty employees....

[@JayYoung-ro3vu]

An abandoned Sheetz? 🤔🤯 They are building like crazy here in Ohio. We have Bucee's coming in. Heard Wawa is trying to expand into Ohio as well.

[@joshuasjericho3915]

No Sheetz bro! 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@jimmysouders5640]

Hi Wallie you should come to airport road here in Allentown Pennsylvania and check out the abandoned friendly s restaurant

[@deborahwygonik7915]

Such a waste of money! This kind of stuff bothers me.

[@WallieB26]

I agree. I don't understand why they wouldn't just retrofit this one.

[@michaelblair5767]

I am looking forward to Sheetz coming to Michigan

[@MrTsolar]

Definitely a bit out of the ordinary for Sheetz, both in design and the fact that it was closed and not immediately demolished. Probably the closest one in design to this one that I've been to was the old one on Broughton Road a few miles from Century III. It's been re-done and has their newest design with a more industrial style canopy. That location has also added EV Quick chargers. Another location that was closed and not demolished was Somerset, Pa. I believe GetGo took it over for a while, and last I saw, it was a cigarette store.

[@jwallen158]

I think when Sheetz started in Hagerstown Maryland area they used old esso gas stations... The one in Williamsport Maryland next to the new one was definitely an old esso station. One up the road on Virginia Ave across from dominos shut down due to crime... One on eastern Blvd shut down due to crime, on on Potomac ave was really bad with crime shut down.. They were definitely old gas stations or 7 elevens also.... They have two new ones on Sharpsburg pike about a mile apart. And another new one on downsville pike.. One on dual highway across from McDonald's another crime area has a really old Sheetz use to go to in my younger years. Fence around it not sure it's shut down being tore down or remodeling.... Criminals love a Sheetz at night time at least around here .

[@mountainmangaming808]

Live in a small town sheetz is the only gas station in town got 2 of them

[@SAMPLETEXT285]

Not sure why they would take the hose for the airpump i mean the thing still has power going to it and if you didnt want people using it just cut power to it and take the entire machine because you know even with the barriers people have seen the giant "air" sign on it and pulled in waiting to fill their tires only to discover there's no hose to it.

[@Optopolis]

Different. Never went to Sheetz before, but I heard of them from other KZbinrs.

[@Assassin72089]

Not really abandoned. They just moved further down the street. The building was just older and they needed a bigger building.

[@ashtonburget4176]

I drove past this location when me and my buddy was out driving around he lives up in Pittsburgh pa I want to stop and take a look myself but we were running late myself but we were running out of time

[@IsaiahHurley]

They are a abandoned Walgreens in small town in Southwest Virginia called Coeburn Virginia.

[@viktorakhmedov3442]

BOUT TO BE A BUNCH MORE TOO

[@williamhorton9763]

What's that number on your left arm? Is it Joey Logano?

[@WallieB26]

Jeff Gordon

[@michaeldoyle9345]

Calcutta sheets also got demolished last I seen couple weeks ago was still in progress for the rebuild

[@charlestonpinballarcade]

Wallie! Is the Original Hot Dog Shop building still there in Plum? I remember when it was open when we lived out there and then it maybe closed about a decade ago.

[@IAmNotBryanMarley]

I remember being in college in Clarion before Sheetz had the touch screens. I used to buy 2 big dogz and marked every topping on the paper. I can still see the facial expressions of the person who took it up. I really was a jag, I guess. Oh, and the .99 cent Jacks. Good video. You hardly ever see an abandoned Sheetz.

[@rubenortiz7908]

I don’t think NJ doesn’t have sheetz but there is definitely Wawa like crazy in NJ haha

[@RyGuy0520]

There was a sheetz in green i'd stop at on my way to hartville that was recently demolished i believe it was demolished to expand the road

[@The-Day-Off]

Didn’t think they would ever close one

[@nickchrimes1990]

The only other sheetz I know that has been abandoned is in kittaning and the new sheetz was built right across the street. The old sheetz was a restaurant but I think has since closed down. I think there’s an old sheetz in butler too where they built the new once across the street and the old one is a dollar tree or dollar general

[@billlindsley1642]

There are 2 of them within 15 miles from me, one in my town with the relocated store less than half a mile from the old one, less than 1/4 mile in the next town down

[@MichaelSelby-mq8cl]

Great video Wally any chance of you doing a store tour of an open Sheetz???

[@WallieB26]

I didnt have any plans to do so at this time but never say never!

[@InTheBerg88]

Been going to this sheets for over 20 some years. Still remember when you could only get a mto hoagie

[@JoshCraver9000]

There's a Sheetz literally on every corner in Hagerstown!

[@dragondancer1814]

Sure seems like that, doesn’t it?

[@danmcintosh6479]

You made a utube video of a sheetz that moved? I need to quit watching these short video for the day

[@williamaltoon73]

I live in Altoona pa where they started there are several of the old locations that are other businesses now

[@Mck499]

The older one here in Monongahela shut down and is getting rebuilt from the ground up

[@JakeInGeorgia]

Is this why Duquesne light keeps raising their rates because sheetz abandons a location and decides to leave their HVAC running and lights on inside?

[@bengreedy1088]

In California that is not abandoned if there's still working electricity to the building and there's no broken window's.. It can get renovated and open under a different name.. Abandoned is when someone stops maintaining a property and let's it deteriorate over time.. To the point where it's badly damaged and the property is a total loss..

[@brentroach9635]

Love your shows

[@AhernMcQueen95]

Do a lot of abonded store and fast food and bank in Virginia Roanoke please pick my s

[@jasonpoletta1797]

I abandon my sheetz every morning 🤷‍♂️

[@benjaminwagner8141]

Ha I was going to mention the one in Berkley springs but you mentioned it

[@AnthonyZappacosta]

The same thing was done to the Sheetz in Exeter Twp. near Birdsboro. They moved about three miles up the near Reifton on the site of the old Bowl-a-rama bowling alley, a bowling alley my son who bowled when he was in high school loved. I heard that the reason Sheetz moved from the Birdsboro location was due to the store being built on unstable ground.

[@exploring_unleashed]

Yes and there’s another store in there now at that location, but I don’t remember what it is.

[@SAMPLETEXT285]

​@@exploring_unleashedit's called the "Birdsboro Mart"

[@terridevlin3059]

I live in Plum. Pretty cool for you doing this!

[@MikeBurns-bi5xj]

In my opinion they should sell the gas station to shell gasoline stations

[@Charger1908]

Is this on Hulton rd?

[@p2o8wer]

I'm willing to bet someone else other then Sheetz took that sign.

[@alanparr3499]

I agree about your copy write issues. To me hearing a song on you tube would be promoting for free to the artist involved. I don't know? LOL

[@adamknepp4429]

I work there still but will be going part time as I got a full time union Job I'll be starting

[@MissRailfan]

Wallie there's one in Halifax on PA 147. There's Sheetz in FL! When I was in Melbourne I saw a few along 95. I prefer Wawa or Rutter's 😂😅

[@somehowhere1]

Moon Twp is getting a new sheetz smaller than this

[@tuckerhuff692]

Thanks for uploading this evening I’m sick

[@Ericlovestrains]

Feel better

[@lindamikel1842]

Awesome good finds abandoned sheetz what a Awesome way to start out with.

[@Archivist1971]

I refer this style of Sheetz. The 1990's Sheetz.

[@davidellis5141]

I have a Kum & Go 👕 & would like a Sheetz one.

[@keithkepple6524]

Sheetz rented the property is what I've heard.

[@45AMT]

Still looked like a nice modern store. It's smaller for Sheetz. I always see a bunch of these in NC but like you said none here in SC.

[@mosesbrowning8055]

The Cheswick Sheetz used to be somewhere else? I know the Sheetz in Cheswick is where the movie theatre used to be

[@handles_are_dumb_01]

"Always open" ....So that was a lie.

[@WallieB26]

LOL!

[@jeffmcbride469]

I had never heard of this chain until this video!

[@Pdasilva0324]

Interesting I don't think I was ever in a Sheetz until they came into the Columbus area a few years ago (maybe I did when I was with an ex visiting her family stopping for gas in WV but this would have been almost 30 years ago so I honestly don't remember). Was this their usual, or one of their usual layouts? Definitely small compared to the locations open today.

[@bretth2920]

I hate Sheetz. Rutters rules!

[@larryrose476]

They may have plans for this if things are still on and ac is still running.

[@truckintodalimit]

Its to keep the inside from not rotting out. Keeping the place with the proper amount of ventilation will prevent the place from falling apart. If they didnt keep the AC on in the summer that place would be a sauna inside and very humid and moist. Same with winter....keep the heat on to keep things from freezing and thawing out.

[@WisconsinCentralProductions]

my aunt's town in rural NC just got a sheetz in november last year

[@gmanandhislady]

My hometown in NC just got one too last November! Does your aunt happen to live in Granite Falls, NC?
