How to Find Your Nearest Bank of America Branch or ATM

Use Bank of America's branch locator tool to find the closest location

Bank of America operates a branch locator on its website at bankofamerica.com. Go to the site, look for "Locations" or "Find a Branch" in the main menu, and enter your address, city, or ZIP code. The tool shows branches and ATMs near you, their hours, and what services each location offers.

You can also call Bank of America's customer service line at 1-800-432-1000 to ask for nearby branches. A representative can tell you which locations are open today and whether they handle the specific service you need — not all branches offer the same services, and some are limited-service locations.

If you use the mobile app, the locator is built in. Open the app, tap the menu, select "Locations," and the app will use your phone's location to show nearby branches and ATMs with real-time hours.

Key Takeaways

  • Bank of America's website locator at bankofamerica.com shows branches, ATMs, hours, and which services each location offers.
  • Not all branches provide the same services — some are limited-service locations that handle only basic transactions.
  • You can call 1-800-432-1000 to confirm a branch is open today and ask whether they handle what you need.
  • The Bank of America mobile app includes a built-in locator that uses your phone's location to show nearby options.

What services are available at different branch types

Bank of America operates full-service branches, express branches, and ATM-only locations. A full-service branch handles account opening, loan applications, safe deposit boxes, and complex transactions. An express branch typically handles deposits, withdrawals, and account services but may not offer lending or safe deposit boxes. ATM-only locations let you withdraw cash and check balances but nothing else.

The branch locator tool marks each location with its type and lists the specific services available. If you need to open an account or discuss a loan, confirm the branch offers that service before you go. Many people drive to a location only to find it cannot handle what they came for.

Finding Bank of America ATMs outside of branches

Bank of America has thousands of ATMs beyond its branches — in grocery stores, pharmacies, airports, and other retail locations. The branch locator shows ATM-only locations separately from branches. You can filter results to show only ATMs if you just need to withdraw cash or deposit a check.

Bank of America is part of the Allpoint network, which means you can also use ATMs at many non-Bank of America locations without a surcharge. The locator tool shows Allpoint ATMs as well. If you travel or move frequently, this network access can save you money on ATM fees.

Hours and services during weekends and holidays

Most Bank of America branches are open Monday through Friday, with limited Saturday hours and closed on Sundays. Hours vary by location — some open at 8 a.m., others at 9 a.m., and closing times range from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. The locator tool shows the exact hours for each branch.

On federal holidays, most branches close. The website and app show holiday closures for your location. ATMs are available 24/7, so you can always withdraw cash or check your balance even when branches are closed.

What to bring when you visit a branch

For most transactions, bring a valid government-issued photo ID — a driver's license, passport, or state ID card. If you are opening an account, bring a second form of ID and proof of address, such as a utility bill or lease dated within the last 60 days.

For loan applications or complex transactions, the branch may ask for additional documents. Call ahead or check the website to see what paperwork you need for your specific purpose. This saves a trip if the branch cannot complete your request without documents you did not bring.

Alternatives if no nearby branch meets your needs

If the nearest branch does not offer the service you need, you can handle many transactions online through bankofamerica.com or the mobile app — account transfers, bill pay, check deposits by photo, and account changes do not require a visit.

For services that require a branch visit, you can also call 1-800-432-1000 to ask whether another nearby location offers what you need. Some branches specialize in certain services or have extended hours. A representative can direct you to the best option.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I do everything at an ATM that I can do at a branch?

No. ATMs let you withdraw cash, deposit checks, transfer money between your accounts, and check balances. You cannot open accounts, explore for loans, access safe deposit boxes, or handle disputes at an ATM. For those services, you need a full-service branch.

Do I need an appointment to visit a Bank of America branch?

Walk-ins are welcome at most branches, but during busy times you may wait. Some branches offer appointment scheduling through the website or app, which can reduce wait time. Call ahead if you need a complex service or are visiting during peak hours.

What if I need to visit a branch but none are near me?

Many Bank of America services are available online or by phone. For account issues, transfers, and bill pay, use the website or app. For services that require a branch, ask whether another location farther away has extended hours or whether the bank can mail documents to you.

Are Bank of America ATMs free to use?

Bank of America ATMs are free for Bank of America customers. Non-customers typically pay a surcharge. Bank of America customers can also use Allpoint ATMs at no charge, which includes thousands of locations outside Bank of America branches.
