Blockbuster will begin the process of closing its Red Bank location beginning Sunday, employees said Tuesday.

There will be no liquidation, unlike many recent Blockbuster closures where items were progressively discounted over time. Instead, employees will transfer the stock to other stores in the area.

Employees said they didn’t know the store’s final closing date, and were unsure of their long-term employment status.

Blockbuster, which filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in 2010, already has closed a number of stores in the area, including its locations at 9219 Lee Highway and 2114 Gunbarrel Road in March.
