Verizon Wireless stores are open on Sunday, but hours vary by location
Most Verizon Wireless stores open on Sunday between 10 a.m. and noon, and close between 5 p.m. and 7 p.m. The exact hours depend on which store you visit — a location in a mall may have different hours than a standalone store, and hours can shift by season or local demand. The only way to know your specific store's Sunday hours is to check before you go.
You can find your store's actual hours three ways: search on Verizon's website store locator, call the store directly, or use Google Maps. The store locator at verizon.com/stores lets you enter your zip code and shows hours for each location. If you call ahead, you avoid a wasted trip, especially if you need help with something that takes time — like setting up a new phone or troubleshooting a billing issue.

- Calling your store before visiting on Sunday can save time, especially if you need help with account changes or device setup.

How to find your store's Sunday hours online
Go to verizon.com/stores and enter your zip code or city name. The results show all Verizon Wireless locations near you, and each listing displays the full weekly schedule. Sunday hours appear in the same format as the rest of the week. If you see "Closed" for Sunday, that store does not open that day.
Google Maps is another quick option: search "Verizon Wireless near me" and tap on any store result. The hours appear on the right side of the screen, and you can see which days the store is open. Google's information usually matches Verizon's official hours, but calling ahead is still the safest bet if you are making a special trip.
What you can do if your store is closed on Sunday
Not all Verizon Wireless stores open on Sunday. Some locations, especially in smaller towns or rural areas, may be closed that day. If your nearest store is closed, you have several alternatives that work without leaving home.
You can manage most account tasks through My Verizon, the online portal at verizon.com or through the My Verizon app. You can pay bills, change plans, add lines, view usage, and troubleshoot service issues there. For questions that need a person, call Verizon customer service at 611 from any Verizon phone, or 1-908-559-4899 from any other phone. Wait times on Sunday can be longer than weekdays, but the line is staffed.
If you need a new phone or a physical SIM card, some Verizon retailers (like Best Buy or Target) may be open on Sunday and can help. These are not official Verizon stores, but they sell Verizon phones and services. Check their hours separately, as they follow their own schedules.
When to call ahead before visiting on Sunday
Sunday is often busier than weekdays at Verizon stores, especially in the afternoon. If you need help with something that takes more than a few minutes — upgrading a phone, changing your plan, setting up a new device, or resolving a billing problem — call the store first. Ask how busy they are and whether they can handle what you need before you go.
Some stores take appointments or let you reserve time with a specialist. Calling ahead also lets you confirm they have the phone model or accessory you want in stock, so you do not make a trip for something they do not have.
Using Verizon's online and phone options instead
If Sunday store hours do not work for your schedule, you may not need to visit at all. Verizon handles most routine tasks faster online or by phone than in a store. Paying a bill, upgrading your plan, adding a line, or checking your data usage all take minutes through My Verizon.
For technical issues, Verizon's automated troubleshooting system can often fix problems without a person. Call 611 from your Verizon phone and follow the prompts, or use the My Verizon app to run diagnostics on your connection. If the automated system cannot solve it, you can stay on the line to talk to a representative.
The main reason to visit a store in person is to buy a new phone, trade in an old one, or get a physical SIM card. Everything else usually works just as well — and sometimes faster — without leaving home.
