Need a Notary on Saturday or Sunday in Knoxville? Weekend, Evening & Same-Day Options
Banks, shipping stores, and many offices may be closed when you suddenly realize a document needs to be notarized.
Maybe it is Saturday afternoon and you need a power of attorney completed. Maybe a family member is in the hospital on Sunday. Maybe closing documents arrived late in the day, or you simply cannot get away from work during normal business hours.
Knox Notary Co. provides mobile notary appointments throughout Knoxville, Knox County, and surrounding East Tennessee, including evening, weekend, and same-day appointments when available.
Instead of searching for a storefront that happens to be open, I can meet you at your home, office, hospital, care facility, or another agreed-upon location.

Can I Get a Notary on Saturday in Knoxville?
Yes. Saturday mobile notary appointments may be available throughout the Knoxville area.
A weekend appointment can be useful when a document cannot wait until Monday or when the signer simply has more flexibility outside normal business hours.
Common Saturday requests may include:
Powers of attorney
Affidavits and sworn statements
Real estate documents
Loan and closing packages
Estate-planning documents
Business documents
Consent and authorization forms
Vehicle-related documents
Documents for hospital or care-facility patients
Availability varies based on the appointment location, schedule, document requirements, and number of signers.
If you know you will need a Saturday appointment, scheduling ahead is helpful. Same-day Saturday appointments may also be available.
Can I Find a Notary on Sunday in Knoxville?
Sunday appointments may also be available by appointment.
Sunday notarizations are especially helpful when an urgent situation develops over the weekend or when a signer is unavailable during the workweek.
For example, you may need to coordinate a notarization for:
An elderly parent
A patient in a hospital or rehabilitation facility
Someone in assisted living or a nursing home
A family member preparing a power of attorney
A real estate transaction with a Monday deadline
A traveler leaving town
Business documents needed before the next workday
Contact Knox Notary Co. as early as possible to confirm Sunday availability.
What About Evening or After-Hours Notary Appointments?
Not every notarization fits neatly between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m.
Evening appointments may be available for clients who work during the day, families coordinating several signers, real estate transactions, hospital visits, or other situations where a daytime appointment is not practical.
I do not advertise guaranteed 24-hour service, but I do offer flexible scheduling and may be able to accommodate evening or short-notice appointments depending on the location and circumstances.
If you need an after-hours notary in Knoxville, call or text with the details of the appointment and I will let you know what is available.
Can I Get a Same-Day Mobile Notary in Knoxville?
Often, yes.
Same-day availability depends on my existing schedule, your location, the type of document, the number of signers, whether witnesses are required, and how quickly everyone can be ready.
The fastest way to check availability is to provide:
Your location or appointment address
The type of document
The number of signers
Approximately how many signatures need notarization
Whether witnesses are required
The time you would like to meet
Any deadline you are working with
For urgent requests, calling or texting is usually the easiest way to check the schedule.
Where Can a Mobile Notary Meet Me?
One advantage of mobile notary service is that you do not have to locate an open notary office and travel there.
Appointments can often be arranged at:
Your Home
This is a convenient option for families, elderly signers, people working from home, or anyone who would rather complete the appointment privately.
Your Office or Business
A mobile appointment can work well when the signer cannot leave work during normal business hours.
Hospitals and Rehabilitation Facilities
Weekend and evening appointments can be particularly useful when a patient needs a document notarized and family members are coordinating the appointment around medical care and visiting hours.
Before scheduling a hospital or rehabilitation appointment, make sure the signer has acceptable identification, is awake and able to communicate directly with the notary, understands that a notarization is taking place, and is participating willingly.
Nursing Homes and Assisted-Living Communities
I can also travel to Knoxville-area nursing homes, assisted-living communities, and other care facilities.
If the signer has identification issues, difficulty communicating, or significant confusion, let me know before the appointment.
Public Meeting Locations
Depending on the situation, we may also be able to meet at an agreed-upon public location such as a coffee shop, office lobby, or other suitable meeting place.
What Should I Have Ready Before the Notary Arrives?
Having everything ready is especially important for same-day and after-hours appointments.
Before the appointment, try to have:
The complete document
Acceptable government-issued photo identification
Any instructions from the document preparer or receiving party
Any required witnesses
All people who need to sign available
The correct appointment address and facility information
A way for the signer to communicate directly with the notary
If you are unsure whether you should sign the document beforehand, it is usually best to wait.
Some notarial acts allow a signer to acknowledge a signature that was made earlier, while others require the document to be signed in the notary's presence.
The notary cannot determine which type of notarization you legally need. That information should come from the document, attorney, document preparer, or organization receiving it.
Do I Need to Provide Witnesses?
It depends on the document.
Some documents require witnesses in addition to notarization, while others do not.
Before the appointment, confirm:
Whether witnesses are required
How many are needed
Whether they must be disinterested
Whether family members can serve as witnesses
Whether the witnesses need identification
Whether the notary is permitted to serve as a witness
Witness availability may sometimes be arranged with advance notice. Let me know when scheduling if your document requires witnesses.
Weekend Hospital and Power of Attorney Appointments
Two of the most common reasons families need flexible mobile notary availability are hospital visits and powers of attorney.
These appointments sometimes become urgent because a family member is hospitalized, preparing for a procedure, moving into a care facility, or dealing with an unexpected financial or personal matter.
The most important thing is not simply finding a notary who is available.
The signer must also be able to participate in the notarization.
For a hospital, nursing-home, rehabilitation, or assisted-living appointment, the signer should generally:
Have acceptable identification
Be awake and responsive
Be able to communicate directly with the notary
Understand that a notarization is taking place
Be signing willingly
Have the complete document ready
Have any required witnesses available
A notary cannot prepare a power of attorney, decide what authority it should contain, or provide legal advice about the document.
How Much Does a Weekend or After-Hours Mobile Notary Cost in Knoxville?
Knox Notary Co. mobile appointments currently have a $75 minimum fee.
The final price can vary depending on factors such as:
Travel distance
Appointment time
Number of signers
Number of notarizations
Witness requirements
Waiting time
Parking or facility access
Printing or document handling
Loan or real estate package requirements
Short-notice or unusual scheduling needs
I will provide the applicable price before the appointment whenever the details are known.
For the quickest quote, send the appointment location, type of document, number of signers, and preferred time.
What Areas Do You Serve?
Mobile appointments are available throughout Knoxville and many surrounding East Tennessee communities, including areas such as Farragut, Powell, Halls, Karns, Hardin Valley, Fountain City, Oak Ridge, Clinton, Maryville, Alcoa, Lenoir City, and surrounding communities.
Primary mobile coverage includes Knoxville and Knox County, with appointments also available in portions of Blount, Loudon, Anderson, Sevier, and Union counties.
Travel availability and pricing depend on the exact appointment location.
Could Remote Online Notarization Be an Option Instead?
Possibly.
If you need something notarized quickly but an in-person appointment is not practical, an eligible document may be able to be completed through Remote Online Notarization.
With RON, the signer and notary meet through secure live audio-video technology rather than meeting physically.
The document must be appropriate for electronic signing and remote notarization, the signer must be able to complete the required identity-verification process, and the organization receiving the document should confirm that it will accept the electronic notarization.
For some urgent situations, RON can provide another option when everyone does not need to be physically together.
