The fastest way to order checks from TD Bank

You can order checks from TD Bank in three ways: online through your account, by phone, or in person at a branch. The online method is fastest — you log into your TD Bank account, find the "Order Checks" option (usually under Account Services or a similar menu), select your check style, enter your mailing address, and submit. TD Bank will mail them to you, typically within 7 to 10 business days.

If you do not have online access or prefer to speak with someone, call the phone number on the back of your debit card or visit a TD Bank branch in person. A banker can walk you through the order and answer questions about check styles and costs.

Key Takeaways

  • Online ordering through your TD Bank account is the quickest method and takes about 7 to 10 business days for delivery.
  • You can also order by phone using the number on your debit card or in person at any TD Bank branch.
  • TD Bank charges a fee for checks, which varies depending on the style and quantity you order.
  • You will need your account number and routing number ready when you order, though these are usually pre-filled if you order online.
  • If you need checks urgently, ask about expedited shipping options when you place your order.

Ordering checks online through your TD Bank account

Log into your TD Bank online banking portal using your username and password. Once you are logged in, look for a menu option labeled "Account Services," "Manage Account," "Order Products," or something similar — the exact wording varies by account type. Click on the checks or check ordering option.

You will be asked to choose a check style. TD Bank offers standard checks and sometimes decorative or specialty designs. Select the quantity you want — typically 100, 200, or 500 checks per box. Enter or confirm the mailing address where you want the checks sent. Review the cost, which will appear on screen before you submit. Complete the order and you should receive a confirmation number.

Standard delivery takes 7 to 10 business days. If you need them faster, ask whether expedited shipping is available when you place your order — this usually costs extra but can cut the wait time in half.

Ordering checks by phone

Call the customer service number on the back of your TD Bank debit card. A representative will ask for your account number to pull up your information. Tell them you want to order checks.

The representative will walk you through the same choices you would make online: check style, quantity, and mailing address. They will confirm the cost and process the order over the phone. You will receive a confirmation number. Delivery time is the same as online ordering — typically 7 to 10 business days.

Ordering checks in person at a TD Bank branch

Visit any TD Bank branch during business hours with your debit card or account information. Ask a banker to help you order checks. They can show you samples of available styles and explain the costs.

The banker will take your order and give you a confirmation. In-branch orders follow the same mailing timeline as online and phone orders — expect delivery in 7 to 10 business days. Some branches may keep sample check books on hand so you can see what you are ordering before you commit.

What information you will need

When you order checks, have your account number ready. If you are ordering online, this is usually pre-filled. If you are calling or visiting a branch, the banker will ask for it to confirm your account.

You will also need to confirm the mailing address where the checks should be sent. This is often your address on file, but you can change it if needed. Make sure the address is correct — checks cannot be redirected once they are mailed.

If you are ordering in person, bring a photo ID. If you are ordering by phone or online, you will need to log in or provide information that matches your account.

Check ordering fees and costs

TD Bank charges a fee for check orders. The exact amount depends on the style you choose and how many checks you order. Standard checks cost less than specialty or decorative designs. Ordering 500 checks is usually cheaper per check than ordering 100.

The cost will be shown to you before you confirm your order — online, you see it on screen; by phone, the representative will tell you; in person, the banker will show you. The fee is typically charged to your account when you place the order, not when the checks arrive.

If you want to know the exact price before you order, call the number on your debit card and ask a representative to quote you for the style and quantity you need.

What to do if you need checks urgently

If you need checks in fewer than 7 days, ask about expedited or rush shipping when you place your order. Not all branches offer this, but many do. Expedited shipping costs more but can deliver checks in 3 to 5 business days.

If expedited shipping is not available or is too expensive, ask whether you can pick up checks at a branch instead of having them mailed. Some branches keep blank check stock and can print a small number of checks for you to use while you wait for your full order to arrive.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I order checks for a joint account?

Yes. If the account is in both names, both account holders can order checks. The checks will print both names on them. Contact TD Bank to confirm whose name appears first and in what order.

What if I enter the wrong address when I order?

Once you submit the order, you cannot change the mailing address. Contact TD Bank when ready — call the number on your debit card — and explain the error. They may be able to intercept the order before it ships, but this depends on timing. If the checks are already mailed, you will have to wait for them to arrive and then request a reorder to the correct address.

Do I have to order checks through TD Bank, or can I use a third-party printer?

You can order checks from third-party printers like Costco, Walmart, or online check printing companies. These are often cheaper than bank checks. Make sure you have your routing number and account number correct before you order — the printer will need them to print on the checks.

How long do checks last once I receive them?

Checks do not expire, but banks may refuse to cash a check that is more than 6 months old. Use your checks within a reasonable time frame. If you have old checks you have not used, you can order new ones whenever you need them.

Can I reorder the same checks without going through the whole process again?

If you order online, your previous order information is usually saved. Log in, find the check ordering section, and your last order details may appear. You can confirm or change them and reorder. By phone or in person, the banker can pull up your last order and reorder the same style and quantity.
