Woodforest closes at 5 p.m. on weekdays, 1 p.m. on Saturdays, and stays closed Sundays
Woodforest National Bank branches typically close at 5:00 p.m. Monday through Friday. On Saturday, most locations close at 1:00 p.m. The bank is closed on Sundays and federal holidays. However, hours vary by location — some branches inside Walmart stores operate different hours than standalone branches, and a few locations may have extended weekday hours until 6:00 p.m.
The only way to know your specific branch's exact closing time is to call that location directly or check the hours on Woodforest's website by entering your zip code. Branch hours also change seasonally and occasionally shift without notice, so calling ahead before you visit is the safest approach if you have a time-sensitive transaction.

How to find your branch's closing time
Visit Woodforest's official website and use their branch locator tool. Enter your zip code or city name, and the results will show each nearby branch with its hours listed. This is the most current source because hours can change, and the website updates before other sources do.
If you do not have internet access or want to confirm before traveling, call your branch directly. The phone number appears in the branch locator results. Staff can tell you whether the branch is open right now and confirm closing time for today or any other day of the week.
Branches inside Walmart stores versus standalone locations
Woodforest operates branches both as standalone bank locations and inside Walmart stores. Walmart-based branches often keep different hours than traditional bank branches — many close earlier or open later to match Walmart's schedule rather than standard banking hours. Some Walmart locations with Woodforest branches stay open until 8:00 p.m. or later, while others close at 4:00 p.m.
The branch locator tool will show you whether a location is inside a Walmart and what its specific hours are. If you are planning to visit a Woodforest branch inside a Walmart, you can also call the Walmart customer service desk and ask about Woodforest's hours at that location.
Using ATMs and online banking after closing time
Woodforest ATMs are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week at most branch locations. You can withdraw cash, deposit checks, and check your balance at any time, even after the branch closes. ATM transactions process immediately for withdrawals and typically post to your account within one business day for deposits.
You can also handle many banking tasks through Woodforest's online banking portal or mobile app without visiting a branch at all. You can transfer money between accounts, pay bills, check balances, and view transaction history anytime. For questions about your account or services the app does not cover, you will need to call customer service or visit during branch hours.
Holiday hours and seasonal changes
Woodforest closes on federal holidays including New Year's Day, Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Presidents' Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. Some branches may also close on additional holidays depending on state or local observance.
Hours may shift slightly during holiday weeks or around major events. If you need to visit a branch on or near a holiday, call ahead to confirm it will be open. The branch locator on Woodforest's website sometimes displays holiday hour changes, but calling is more reliable.
What to do if you need banking services outside normal hours
For routine transactions like deposits, withdrawals, and balance checks, use a Woodforest ATM. For questions about your account, fraud concerns, or services that require a staff member, call Woodforest customer service. The phone number is on the back of your debit card and on the website.
If you need to speak with someone in person and cannot visit during branch hours, some Woodforest branches offer Saturday morning appointments or can schedule a callback from a staff member during business hours. Ask about this option when you call your branch.
