Wells Fargo Just Closed These 85 Branches

Over the last few years, banks across the country have been reducing their footprint by closing thousands of physical branches, and Wells Fargo is no exception. 

Since October 2023, the banking giant has closed over 70 locations — 13 of them in January alone.

Is it time for you to open new bank account? Let’s explore which locations Wells Fargo has chosen to shutter in the last few months.

• 4394 Main Street, Pinson
• 401 19th Street North, Birmingham

These closures weren’t surprising as Wells Fargo already has many locations in and around Birmingham (Pinson is on the outskirts of Birmingham). Customers have several other Wells Fargo branches to choose from.

• 2745 West Carefree Highway, Phoenix

This location was on the northern outskirts of Phoenix, which has many more Wells Fargo branches in more populated areas.

• 1305 W. Sepulveda Boulevard, Torrance
• 334 W. 3rd Street, San Bernardino
• 270 Redwood Shores Parkway, Redwood City
• 303 2nd Street, San Francisco
• 1071 El Camino Real, Redwood City
• 42420 Washington Avenue, Bermuda Dunes
• 450 South Ventura Road, Oxnard
• 3360 San Pablo Dam Road, San Pablo
• 18010 Chatsworth Street, Granada Hills
• 118 E. Carrillo Street, Santa Barbara
• 116 Sunset Drive, San Ramon
• 103 East Stetson Avenue, Hemet
• 6010 Pacific Boulevard, Huntington Park

The Golden State got hit hard with Wells Fargo closures. These now-shuttered locations span the length and breadth of the state.

• 34237 Highway 6, Edwards

Colorado got away with just one closure in the small mountain town of Edwards. Luckily, there is a Wells Fargo bank in Avon, a busy ski resort destination nearby.

• 1301 Pennsylvania Avenue

This location was just a few blocks away from the White House. This closure might be a good move for the bank, as two other Wells Fargo locations are within a mile of 1301 Pennsylvania Avenue.

• 7270 Lancaster Pike, Hockessin

• 4901 Tamiami Trail South, Naples

• 3400 South Monroe Street, Tallahassee

• 444 Gamble Street, Tallahassee

• 7931 Gunn Highway, Tampa

• 113 South Tennessee Avenue, Lakeland
  

• 10191 Cleary Boulevard, Plantation
• 3131 West Hallandale Beach Boulevard, Hallandale
• 555 Washington Avenue, Suite A, Miami Beach
• 6600 Taft Street, Hollywood
• 1551 S Belcher Road, Clearwater
• 3990 NW 16 Street, Lauderhill
• 2891 South Tamiami Trail, Sarasota
• 199 North Ocean Boulevard, Pompano Beach
• 14731 Biscayne Blvd., North Miami
• 4285 U.S. 1 Dixie Highway, St. Augustine

Almost as hard-hit as California, Florida saw 10 branches close in 2023. These closed locations are on both the Gulf and Atlantic Coasts.

• 3298 Highway 5, Douglasville
• 1440 Highway 138, S.E. At I-20, Conyers
• 6175 Windward Parkway, Alpharetta
• 1600 Frederica Road, Saint Simons Island

Each of the three Georgia closures was on the outskirts of Atlanta. Hopefully, customers won’t be too inconvenienced, as each closed location has others close by.

• 4505 Douglas Avenue, Des Moines

Des Moines has five other banks and several ATMs within its city limits plus another on Douglas Avenue in Urbandale, so this closure shouldn’t be too devastating.

• 210 East Corporate Drive, Meridian
• 114 East Appleway, Coeur D'alene
• 320 A Street, Idaho Falls

It’s evident that Wells Fargo is condensing (rather than eliminating) its footprint with these bank closures. Each of these Idaho cities is still left with at least one bank location after the closures.

• 10 S. Wacker Drive, Chicago

While the bank at this location has closed, it appears there is still an active Wells Fargo ATM at this location.

• 7475 Wisconsin Avenue, Bethesda
• 1906 Towne Center Blvd., Suite 285, Annapolis

Both of these closures were in busy locations — the former Bethesda location was between two major thoroughfares and the Annapolis closure was in a large strip mall.

• 188 East Capital Street Suite 100, Jackson

• 2301 North 48th Street, Lincoln

• 50 East State Street, Trenton

This closure follows the trend of closing branches in the heart of major cities. Trenton, however, still has other branch locations.

• 970 Bosque Farm Boulevard, Bosque Farms
• 1275 Country Club Road, Santa Teresa

While Bosque Farms has a nearby branch open in Los Lunas, Santa Teresa residents will have to travel across the Texas border to get to the nearest Wells Fargo branch.

• 4045 South Virginia Street, Reno
• 1001 So. Rainbow Boulevard, Las Vegas

Both Reno and downtown Las Vegas have numerous Wells Fargo branches, so these closures are to be expected as the company is decreasing redundant locations.

• 15030 Idlewild Road, Matthews

• 5637 Albemarle Road, Charlotte (ATM services still available)

• 1500 Westinghouse Blvd, Charlotte

• 9125 Lawyers Road, Charlotte

• 704 N Cannon Blvd, Kannapolis

• 9125 Lawyers Road, Mint Hill

• 11 Kitchen Place, Asheville

• 110 NE Roberts Avenue, Greshem
• 15950 82nd Avenue, Clackamas
• 5615 S Macadam Avenue, Portland

Each of these closures is in the Portland metro area, which is still home to numerous Wells Fargo branches.

• 3501 Paxton Street, Unit Q1, Harrisburg
• 1886 Bethlehem Pike, Flourtown
• 1840 Airport Road, Allentown

While Allentown and Harrisburg residents may be relatively unaffected by these closures, Flourtown customers must now travel about five miles to the nearest Wells Fargo bank.

• 500 North Main Street, Mauldin

• 9810 North Lamar, Austin
• 201 E. Pipeline Road, Hurst
• 3570 Southwest Military Drive, San Antonio
• 9810 North Lamar, Austin
• 1420 West Mockingbird Lane, Dallas
• 11152 S. Gessner Drive, Houston
• 1889 Brown Boulevard, Arlington
  

All of the Texas closures are in major metropolitan areas — all of which have several other locations to serve Wells Fargo customers.

• 3425 E 7800 South, Salt Lake City

• 1006 Richmond Road, Williamsburg
• 200 N. Main Street, Blacksburg
• 122 East Grace Street, Richmond
• 2100 Ivy Road, Charlottesville
• 440 Monticello Avenue, Suite 150, Norfolk

Virginia customers don’t have to worry about these closures too much as each city with a closure has other locations. However, in several instances (like Williamsburg and Blacksburg) the open location is across town from the shuttered branch.

• 1527 Highlands Dr., Ne, Issaquah
• 6615 132nd Avenue Ne, Kirkland
• 601 W 1st Avenue, Spokane

These closures aren’t surprising as Issaquah isn’t big enough to warrant two locations, and Kirkland has several others.

• 636 Wisconsin Avenue, Sheboygan

Sheboygan customers still have access to Wells Fargo Advisors and the ATM downtown, but now they will have to go to the north end of the city for branch access.

Pro tip: Online banks often offer mobile apps, high-yield savings accounts, and other helpful features that prevent you from missing a physical branch.

Wells Fargo has been on a branch-closing spree since October 2023, but it’s not done yet — 55 more branches are on the chopping block for 2024.

Most of the locations that have closed were redundant, and other branches are close by. However, you may now have to travel farther in person to boost your bank account.
