Woodforest National Bank branch hours vary by location

Woodforest National Bank does not have a single opening time across all branches. Most locations open at 9:00 a.m. on weekdays, but some open as early as 8:00 a.m. or as late as 10:00 a.m. depending on the branch. Weekend hours also differ — some branches open on Saturday, others do not, and very few open on Sunday. The only way to know your specific branch's hours is to check directly with that location.

The bank operates branches inside Walmart stores in multiple states, and those hours are tied to the Walmart location's schedule. A Woodforest branch inside a 24-hour Walmart may have different hours than one in a Walmart that closes at 11:00 p.m. Some Woodforest-only branches (not inside Walmart) have their own separate hours.

Key Takeaways

  • Most Woodforest branches open at 9:00 a.m. on weekdays, but opening times range from 8:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. depending on location.
  • Saturday and Sunday hours vary widely — some branches are open both days, some only Saturday, and some are closed weekends entirely.
  • Branches inside Walmart stores follow that Walmart's operating hours, which may be different from standalone Woodforest branches.
  • The fastest way to confirm your branch's hours is to call the location directly or check the branch locator on Woodforest's website.

How to find your branch's specific hours

Woodforest National Bank's website has a branch locator tool. Enter your city or ZIP code, and the tool will show you nearby branches with their full hours of operation. This is the most reliable source because it pulls directly from each branch's schedule.

If you know which Walmart your nearest Woodforest is in, you can also call that Walmart's customer service line and ask for the Woodforest branch hours. The branch staff can answer questions about whether they handle specific services during certain hours — for example, some branches may not process loan applications after 4:00 p.m., even if the branch itself stays open later.

Weekday hours at most locations

The majority of Woodforest branches open between 8:00 a.m. and 9:00 a.m. on Monday through Friday. Most close between 5:00 p.m. and 6:00 p.m., though some stay open until 7:00 p.m. or later. Branches inside 24-hour Walmarts may have extended evening hours.

If you need to handle a transaction during lunch, call ahead — some branches close for a lunch break between 12:00 p.m. and 1:00 p.m., while others stay open through lunch. This detail matters if you are planning to visit during a specific window.

Saturday and Sunday hours

Saturday hours are common at Woodforest branches, with most opening between 9:00 a.m. and 10:00 a.m. and closing between 1:00 p.m. and 3:00 p.m. Some branches stay open later on Saturday, until 5:00 p.m. or 6:00 p.m. Sunday hours are rare — only a small number of branches are open on Sunday, usually from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.

If you are planning a weekend visit, do not assume your branch is open. Check the branch locator or call first, because weekend schedules change more often than weekday schedules do.

What to do if you need banking outside branch hours

Woodforest customers can use ATMs 24 hours a day for withdrawals and balance checks. The bank also offers online banking and a mobile app, which allow you to transfer money, pay bills, and check your account at any time. Phone banking is available during extended hours — call the number on the back of your debit card to confirm the hours.

If you need to speak with a person outside branch hours, some Woodforest locations have a customer service line that operates beyond the branch's physical hours. Ask a teller for the phone number, or check your account statements or the bank's website for the customer service contact.

Branches inside Walmart versus standalone locations

Woodforest branches inside Walmart stores close when that Walmart closes. If your nearest Walmart closes at 10:00 p.m., the Woodforest branch inside it also closes at 10:00 p.m., even if other Woodforest branches in your area close at 6:00 p.m. The reverse is also true — if the Walmart opens at 6:00 a.m., the branch opens at 6:00 a.m.

Standalone Woodforest branches (not inside Walmart) set their own hours and are not tied to a Walmart schedule. These branches tend to have more traditional banking hours — typically 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. on weekdays — and may have more limited weekend availability than in-store branches.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I do all my banking at the ATM if the branch is closed?

You can withdraw cash, check your balance, and transfer money between your own accounts at the ATM 24 hours a day. You cannot deposit checks, open new accounts, or speak with someone about a problem outside branch hours. If you need to deposit a check after hours, use mobile check deposit through the Woodforest app if your account has that feature.

Do all Woodforest branches have the same hours?

No. Hours vary by location, and branches inside Walmart stores follow that Walmart's schedule. The only way to know your branch's hours is to check the branch locator on Woodforest's website or call the branch directly.

What if I need to visit a branch but I work during business hours?

Many Woodforest branches are open on Saturday mornings, and some stay open until 5:00 p.m. or 6:00 p.m. on weekdays. Check your branch's hours to see if there is an evening or weekend window that works for you. If not, online banking and the mobile app handle many transactions without a branch visit.

Are Woodforest branches open on holidays?

Most Woodforest branches close on major federal holidays like Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year's Day. Some branches inside Walmart may have different holiday hours if the Walmart is open. Call your branch or check the website before visiting on a holiday.
