Value City Furniture Permanently Closes

Value City Furniture has permanently closed its Rockville location at 12055 Rockville Pike in the Montrose Crossing Shopping Center.

The store has already shut its doors and has been completely cleared out. The closure is part of a broader nationwide liquidation following the collapse of the company’s parent, American Signature Inc.

Value City Furniture filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in November 2025, initially announcing plans to close 33 underperforming stores while attempting to restructure the business (Rockville was scheduled to be one of the closures). That plan unraveled in early January 2026 after the company was unable to secure a buyer to keep operations running. A bankruptcy court subsequently approved the full liquidation of all remaining locations.

As of January 2026, American Signature Inc. is winding down operations across its entire footprint. All 89 remaining stores nationwide, including 79 Value City Furniture locations and 10 American Signature Furniture stores across 13 states, entered “Going Out of Business” sales beginning January 10.

Liquidation discounts in surrounding areas have reached up to 50 percent off, with all sales marked final. The company is no longer accepting returns or exchanges, and gift cards have generally not been honored since late December 2025 or early January 2026.
