The Walmart on Greenville Boulevard in Greenville will now offer drive-thru COVID-19 testing on Monday, Wednesdays and Fridays from 7am to 9am in the parking lot. 

The site is supported by Walmart, eTrueNorth, and state and local officials to test those who are exhibiting symptoms of COVID-19 and all health care providers and first responders, whether or not they are exhibiting symptoms.

Those eligible for testing can sign up for an appointment via eTrueNorth.

There is no out-of-pocket cost to the individual.

Details on the Greenville COVID-19 testing site:

  • The site is open from 7 a.m. to 9 a.m. Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, each week, weather permitting,
  • The site will test anyone who may be exhibiting symptoms of the virus. In addition, testing is available to all health care providers and first responders, whether or not they are exhibiting symptoms.
  • Appointments will be made through eTrueNorth’s online portal at www.DoINeedaCOVID19test.com, which will screen individuals to ensure they meet CDC eligibility for testing.

  • The site will use a self-administered nasal swab test that will allow those being tested to swab their own nose onsite while in their vehicles, observed by a trained medical volunteer to ensure the sample is taken correctly, and then dropped in the sealed sample into a container on their way out of the drive-through site.
