Kmart Coffs Harbour opening hours
Weekday shoppers have the most flexibility at Kmart Coffs Harbour. The store runs a full day Monday through Friday, closing at 8:00 PM — late enough for after-work trips but not quite late enough for late-night emergency purchases.
Monday to Thursday hours
Monday through Thursday, Kmart Coffs Harbour opens at 8:00 AM and closes at 8:00 PM, giving shoppers a solid 12-hour window for browsing (Kmart Official Store Locator). Friday follows the same schedule, so there’s no early close to worry about at the end of the week.
Weekend hours
Saturday: Closed. Sunday hours run from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM (Kmart Official Store Locator). Sunday’s delayed start means early-morning Sunday marketgoers at Coffs Central’s ground-floor car park won’t be able to squeeze in a Kmart visit before their market run.
“Standard shopping centre in the heart of Coffs with plenty of parking across the road. There’s a KMart in the centre as well as plenty of variety shops.”
— TripAdvisor Reviewer
One third-party directory lists weekday closing at 9:00 PM instead of 8:00 PM, but the official Kmart store locator says 8:00 PM. When in doubt, call ahead to confirm if you’re planning an evening visit.
Holiday variations
Public holiday trading hours for Kmart Coffs Harbour follow NSW retail trading laws and Coffs Central Shopping Centre’s own schedule. Major holidays typically see reduced hours or full closures — check with the shopping centre directly or call the store before heading out on a public holiday.
Kmart Coffs Harbour phone number
The direct line for Kmart Coffs Harbour is +61 2 5634 4900, available during store hours (Kmart Official Store Locator). This number connects you to the Coffs Harbour location specifically, not the national call centre.
Contact details
Calling ahead is useful if you want to verify product availability before making the trip out to Coffs Central. Staff can check whether specific furniture items, electronics, or seasonal stock is on the shelves without requiring you to drive over.
Store support
For matters beyond general inquiries — returns, layby enquiries, or gift card issues — the in-store team can point you to the right counter or process. Kmart’s head office also handles online order disputes through kmart.com.au if your question relates to digital purchases rather than the physical store.
Kmart Coffs Harbour furniture
Kmart has built its reputation on accessible pricing for home furnishing, and the Coffs Harbour store carries the core range you’d expect from a suburban Kmart: flat-pack shelving units, bedroom packages, dining sets, and occasional furniture pieces.
Popular furniture items
The furniture selection typically rotates with seasonal releases — outdoor settings appear in spring and summer, while higher-ticket items like lounge suites and bed frames tend to appear year-round but in limited quantities per store. Prices generally sit well below $500 for most items, making Kmart a practical option for first-home buyers and renters on the Coffs Coast.
In-store availability
Stock varies by location and demand. The Coffs Harbour store isn’t huge compared to larger metro Kmart locations, so popular items can sell out quickly. If you’re after a specific piece, ringing ahead or checking kmart.com.au for local stock indicators helps avoid a wasted trip.
For budget-conscious Coffs Coast residents, Kmart furniture fills a genuine gap. Major competitors like Big W (located upstairs at Coffs Central) carry some overlapping items, but Kmart’s dedicated homewares section and lower price points on basics give it an edge for essential household setups.
“Coffs Central shopping centre (formally the Palms Centre) newly refurbished with lots of new and exciting shops, Major retailer Big W in the upstairs area along with lots of boutique stores, a post office, Pharmacy and large eatery upstairs, and ground floor, fresh fruit and vege, Butchers, Chicken shops, Bakery, gab a paper, or do your lotto, have your nails done, all under one roof, lots of free parking, and on Sunday mornings the ground floor of the car park becomes a Sunday Market with all kinds of goodies, well worth the visit if you are in Coffs on Sunday morning.”

Kmart Coffs Harbour online shopping
While the physical store handles walk-in customers, Kmart’s digital presence extends well beyond what any single outlet can stock. Online shopping through kmart.com.au opens up the full national range, including items not carried at the Coffs Harbour location.
Online options
The Kmart website stocks tens of thousands of products spanning clothing, homewares, electronics, toys, and sports equipment. Regional customers in NSW’s Mid North Coast benefit particularly from online access to ranges that simply wouldn’t fit in a suburban store’s floor space.
Click and collect
Kmart offers click-and-collect at many locations, allowing online order pickup at the store. At Coffs Harbour, this service depends on current staffing and operational capacity — call the store to confirm whether same-day or next-day pickup is available before placing an order for collection.
Living on the Coffs Coast means delivery times from Kmart’s distribution centres may run slightly longer than metro areas. Click-and-collect remains the fastest option for online purchases, but you’ll need to factor in the drive to Coffs Central regardless.
Kmart Coffs Harbour opening date
Pinpointing exactly when Kmart opened at Coffs Central is difficult — Kmart Australia’s corporate communications don’t publish individual store opening dates publicly, and local historical records are sparse.
Store history
What is clear is that Kmart operates as the anchor tenant inside Coffs Central Shopping Centre, which itself underwent a major refurbishment and rebranding (it was previously known as The Palms Centre). One TripAdvisor reviewer noted the centre was “newly refurbished with lots of new and exciting shops,” indicating ongoing changes that likely included the Kmart fit-out or refresh.
The lack of a confirmed opening date matters primarily for historical context, not practical shopping. What matters more is that the store is here now, operating under the Coffs Central umbrella alongside Big W, boutique retailers, a pharmacy, and fresh food vendors — making it a legitimate one-stop-shop destination on Harbour Drive.
Finding Kmart Coffs Harbour: Getting there
Coffs Central Shopping Centre sits at 35-61 Harbour Drive, approximately 0.6 kilometres east from the centre of Coffs Harbour itself (Opening Hours AU). The intersection near West High Street, Harbour Drive, and Grafton Street (A1) makes it accessible from multiple approaches.
Free parking is available throughout Coffs Central, with the ground-floor car park doubling as a Sunday market venue on weekend mornings (TripAdvisor). For visitors relying on public transport, local buses serve the Harbour Drive corridor — check the Coffs Harbour Buslines schedule for precise routes.

What else is at Coffs Central
Beyond Kmart, Coffs Central houses Big W (upstairs), a post office, pharmacy, butchers, bakeries, fruit and vegetable shops, a chicken shop, a newsagent, a nail salon, and various boutique stores.

Does Kmart Coffs Harbour offer delivery?
Delivery is handled through Kmart’s online platform (kmart.com.au), not the physical store. Standard and express shipping options are available at checkout, with delivery times varying by location. Coffs Harbour’s regional postcode may affect delivery speed compared to metro areas.

Is there parking at Kmart Coffs Harbour?
Yes. Coffs Central Shopping Centre offers free parking across its surface lots and ground-floor car park. The ground floor of the car park hosts a Sunday market on weekend mornings, so parking fills up fast during those hours.
How busy is Kmart Coffs Harbour on weekends?
Weekends bring increased foot traffic to Coffs Central, particularly Saturday mornings and Sunday mornings when the Sunday market draws additional visitors. Weekday afternoons tend to be quieter, making them preferable for unhurried shopping.
Can I return items at Kmart Coffs Harbour?

For Coffs Coast residents and visitors alike, Kmart Coffs Harbour fills a practical role: affordable everyday items, reasonable hours, and the convenience of being housed alongside pharmacy, post office, and fresh food options under one free-parking roof. The catch is that regional stock limitations mean some searches will require a website visit or a phone call — but that’s a minor inconvenience compared to the nearest alternative Kmart locations, which are significantly further up or down the coast.
