New Dollar Tree To Open In Parsippany Next Month

PARSIPPANY, NJ — Soon it'll be another day, another Dollar Tree in Parsippany. The company plans to open a second store in the township.

An 11,445-square-foot location is set to open Feb. 17 at 1446 Route 46 — about five minutes down the road from the Dollar Tree in the Troy Hills Shopping Center on the same street.

“Dollar Tree continues to grow, and we are proud to be part of the Parsippany community,” said Kayleigh Campbell, Dollar Tree’s investor and media relations manager. “Our stores provide customers with convenience and great value on everyday items, along with celebratory and seasonal products that Dollar Tree is best known for.”

For the first time in the company's 35-year history, Dollar Tree announced last summer it would raise prices on many products to $1.25. The company said the price increase would help them manage higher merchandise and operating costs.

Dollar Tree also said it will allow them to introduce new products and bring back merchandise it discontinued because of the $1 limit. The price change will roll out in all stores by the end of March.

The company also plans to open 5,000 Dollar Tree Plus stores by the end of fiscal 2024. The Plus stores offer a broad range of products priced at $1, $3 and $5.

The new Parsippany location will not be a Dollar Tree Plus, Campbell told Patch.

The new store will feature different products each week, ranging from seasonal décor, household products, Hallmark greeting cards, balloons and party supplies, dinnerware, food, teaching and school necessities, health and beauty essentials, toys, books and more.

The shop will also offer an expanded Crafter’s Square® section, which includes wood crafts and picture frames, art paper, staple-backed canvases, acrylic paints and brushes, glitter, colored pencils and crayons, markers, jewels and beads, make-your-own wreath supplies, ribbons and yarn, scrapbooking stickers, portable sewing kits and containers for storage solutions.

Additionally, Parsippany's new Dollar Tree will feature a Snack Zone, offering an expanded selection of beverages, candy and snacks.

Dollar Tree stores typically employ 12 to 20 workers, and the new Parsippany location is hiring. Click here to apply.
