The fastest way to find a nearby Bank of America location
Bank of America's branch locator tool on their website or mobile app will show you the nearest branches and ATMs with their hours and services. Go to bankofamerica.com, click "Locations" in the top menu, enter your address or zip code, and the map will display every Bank of America branch and ATM within your search radius. The mobile app (available on iOS and Android) does the same thing and uses your phone's location to find branches automatically.
If you do not have internet access, you can call Bank of America's customer service line at 1-800-432-1000 and ask for the nearest branch or ATM to your location. They will give you the address, hours, and what services that location offers. This is useful if you need to know whether a specific branch handles notary services, safe deposit boxes, or business banking before you go.
Google Maps and Apple Maps also show Bank of America locations when you search "Bank of America near me," and they pull real-time information about whether the branch is currently open. These maps often include customer reviews and photos of the location, which can help you decide whether to visit.

What services are available at different Bank of America locations
Not every Bank of America location offers the same services. Full-service branches handle deposits, withdrawals, account opening, loans, and investment services. Smaller branches or in-store locations (often inside Walmart or grocery stores) may only handle basic transactions like deposits and withdrawals. The locator tool on bankofamerica.com will tell you which services each location provides before you visit.
If you need a specific service—such as a safe deposit box, notary public, or a business banking consultation—call ahead or check the location details in the locator. Some services are only available at full-service branches, and a few require an appointment. This saves you a trip to a location that cannot help you.
Finding Bank of America ATMs outside of branches
Bank of America ATMs are located in thousands of retail stores, grocery chains, pharmacies, and other businesses beyond the main bank branches. You can withdraw cash, deposit checks, and transfer money at these ATMs 24 hours a day. The branch locator tool lets you filter results to show ATMs only, which is faster if you just need cash or to deposit a check.
Surcharge-free ATM access depends on your account type. Bank of America customers with certain checking or savings accounts can use any Bank of America ATM without a fee. If you use an ATM that is not owned by Bank of America, your bank may charge you a fee, and the ATM operator may charge a fee as well. Check your account terms or call customer service to confirm which ATMs are surcharge-free for your specific account.
Using the Bank of America mobile app to find locations
The Bank of America mobile app has a built-in locator that uses your phone's GPS to show the nearest branches and ATMs. Open the app, tap the menu icon, select "Locations," and the map will display nearby options sorted by distance. You can tap any location to see hours, services, phone number, and directions.
The app also lets you schedule an appointment at a branch directly from the locator, which is helpful if you need to meet with a banker about a loan, account issue, or investment service. This avoids waiting in line and ensures someone is available when you arrive.
What to do if there is no Bank of America location near you
If you live in an area without a nearby Bank of America branch or ATM, you can still access your account through online banking, the mobile app, and phone banking at 1-800-432-1000. You can deposit checks using mobile check deposit (available through the app), transfer money between accounts, pay bills, and handle most banking tasks without visiting a physical location.
For cash withdrawals, you can use any ATM and request cash back at grocery stores and retailers that accept debit cards. Bank of America also partners with other banks' ATM networks in some regions, which may give you surcharge-free access to additional ATMs. Call customer service to ask whether your account includes access to partner ATM networks in your area.
Checking branch hours before you visit
Bank of America branch hours vary by location. Most full-service branches are open Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., with limited Saturday hours (usually 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.) and closed on Sundays. Some locations have extended weekday hours until 6 p.m. or later. In-store branches inside retail locations often have different hours that match the host store's schedule.
The locator tool shows the exact hours for each branch, and you can also call the branch directly to confirm. Holiday hours change, so check before visiting on a holiday or the day after a major holiday. If you need banking services outside regular hours, use the mobile app or call customer service for phone banking options.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I do everything at an in-store Bank of America location that I can at a full branch?
No. In-store locations (inside Walmart, grocery stores, etc.) handle basic transactions like deposits and withdrawals, but they do not offer safe deposit boxes, notary services, loans, or investment consultations. If you need those services, you will need to visit a full-service branch. The locator tool shows which services each location provides.
Do I have to pay a fee to use a Bank of America ATM?
Bank of America customers with most checking and savings accounts can use any Bank of America ATM without a fee. If you use an ATM owned by another bank, both your bank and the ATM operator may charge you a fee. Check your account terms or call 1-800-432-1000 to confirm which ATMs are surcharge-free for your account type.
What if I need to see a banker but cannot get to a branch during business hours?
You can schedule an appointment through the mobile app or by calling 1-800-432-1000, and many branches offer evening or Saturday appointments. For urgent issues, phone banking at 1-800-432-1000 can handle account problems, fraud reports, and other matters without a branch visit.
Can I deposit checks at a Bank of America ATM?
Yes. Most Bank of America ATMs accept check deposits 24 hours a day. You can also use mobile check deposit through the app by photographing the front and back of the check. Mobile deposits typically post to your account within one business day.
How do I find a Bank of America location that offers notary services?
Call 1-800-432-1000 and ask which branches near you have a notary public on staff. Not all branches offer this service, and some may require an appointment. You can also check the locator tool on bankofamerica.com and look for "Notary Services" in the services list for each location.
