How to Find a Notary
We usually focus on the notaries public, but what about the customers trying to find them? Where do they start?
Whether you need a document notarized for business, school, or personal matters, finding a notary public doesn't have to be difficult. There are plenty of easy ways to locate one near you. Let’s go over some of the best options for finding a notary public.
Use Notary Locator Tools
One of the fastest ways to find a notary is by using online notary locator tools. These websites or apps allow you to search for notaries by simply entering your location or zip code. Many tools even let you filter results based on the type of notarial service you need or specific requirements like evening availability or mobile notary services. These tools, such as asnnotary.org, make finding a notary quick and easy, especially if you’re in a rush.
Visit Your Local Bank or Credit Union
Banks are one of the most reliable places to find a notary public. Many banks and credit unions offer notary services to their customers. Check with your local bank branch to see if they have a notary on staff. If you're already a bank customer, these services are often free. Simply call ahead to confirm availability and whether you need an appointment.
Check Mailing Centers
Mailing centers, like the UPS Store, FedEx Office, and Pak Mail, are another great option for notary services. Many of these stores have notaries public available during business hours, making it convenient to get your documents notarized while sending a package or picking up supplies.
Ask on Social Media
Social media can be a helpful resource to ask friends, neighbors, and community groups for notary recommendations. Many people have connections to notaries through work, school, or other organizations. We frequently see posts through our personal accounts of inquiries for officiates for weddings or notaries public for school-related documents.
