Company rationale and local access
Huntington framed the decision as part of an ongoing review of how customers use branches, ATMs and digital channels. The company said each branch being consolidated has another Huntington branch located within about a 10-minute drive.
“Huntington regularly reviews its distribution network and makes adjustments to ensure we have the right mix of branches, ATMs and digital banking to meet our customers' evolving needs,” the company said.
Bank closures often reflect broader shifts in banking habits, including increased use of mobile apps and ATMs. Still, physical branches remain important for services such as safe-deposit boxes, notarizations and in-person assistance for older customers or those with complex accounts. Local leaders and customers in affected neighborhoods may now need to travel slightly farther for those services.
Practical information for customers
Huntington has not published an exact timetable for each branch’s final day of service; customers should expect notices at affected branches and direct communications from the bank. If you bank at one of the listed locations, consider these steps:
- Check for posted closing dates and alternative nearby branches.
- Confirm how services you use will be handled—e.g., safe-deposit access, wire transfers, notarizations.
- Ensure online banking credentials are up to date and enroll in digital services if you haven’t already.
Huntington, founded in 1866 in Columbus, Ohio, operates across 21 states. The company said branch openings and renovations are also part of its regular network review, signaling that closures are not the only adjustments customers may see.
Local customers with questions should contact Huntington customer service or visit their branch before any announced closing date. News Block will follow up with additional details and timing as they become available.
