Advance Auto Parts holds a ribbon cutting for its new store at 3770 SE Maricamp Rd., Ocala, FL 34480, on Wednesday, Nov. 18, 2026, from 11 to 11:30 a.m. The company's listing on the Ocala Metro Chamber and Economic Partnership calendar describes the event as the store's grand opening celebration.
The City of Ocala's permit portal lists a new commercial building permit for "Advanced Auto" at the address (BLD25-2914). It was issued to Park and Eleazer Construction on March 30, 2026, and finaled on Sept. 21, 2026. The site permit was finaled on Sept. 29. Permits for store racking and for two wall signs were finaled on Sept. 16 and Oct. 14. Electrical permits for network cabling and a security camera system were issued on Oct. 8 and Oct. 15.
As of Oct. 22, Advance's Ocala store locator lists nine stores in Ocala, and 3770 SE Maricamp Road is not one of them. A Google Maps search for Advance Auto Parts at the address returned only the existing stores. Hours and a phone number for the new store were not available.
The nearest existing store is #5089 at 2402 E. Silver Springs Blvd., (352) 620-2700. Advance's other Maricamp Road store, #9432, is farther east at 9260 SE Maricamp Rd., (352) 680-0861. Advance's Ocala store pages list free services such as battery installation and recycling, charging and starting system testing, check-engine (OBD-II) code scanning, loaner tools and wiper blade installation. Most of the Ocala stores also take used motor oil for recycling.
