24-Hour Mobile Notary in Denver. Standard rate, even on Sundays.
Mobile notary appointments any hour of any day, including Sundays, federal holidays, and overnight, across the Denver metro. Scheduled off-hours work runs at the same $10 per signature plus travel that a Wednesday afternoon signing does. The only add-on is a $75 same-hour surcharge for emergencies that need a notary on site within roughly 60 minutes of the call.

What 24-hour actually means.
A 24-hour mobile notary is one who takes appointments outside normal business hours: late evenings, overnight, Sundays, federal holidays, the in-between days most offices close on. The notarial work itself is identical to a daytime appointment. The difference is availability, and the pricing model that follows.
Most Denver-area mobile notaries add a $25 to $50 surcharge to every appointment outside 9-to-5, Monday-through-Friday hours. Some quote two-tier or three-tier rate cards that step up by time of day. The thinking is reasonable from the notary's side (off-hours work is harder to plan around), but it makes the bill unpredictable and rewards scheduling around the rate card instead of around when documents actually need to be signed.
My pricing runs the other way. Standard rate applies Sunday through Saturday, daytime and overnight, including holidays. A 2 a.m. Tuesday appointment scheduled a day in advance costs the same as 2 p.m. Tuesday. A Christmas Day signing costs the same as a December 26 signing. The only premium is the $75 same-hour rush, which applies when you need me on site within roughly an hour of the call, regardless of time of day. The rush surcharge exists because a same-hour booking displaces whatever else is on the calendar, not because it's past 5 p.m.
When 24-hour calls happen.
Off-hours signings cluster around a few situations. The categories below capture most of what I see. The common thread is that the timing is set by the document or the signer, not the convenience of the calendar.
Hospital, hospice, and end-of-life.Bedside signings often can't wait. A patient is awake and clear-headed now, may not be tomorrow. A power of attorney is needed before a 6 a.m. surgery. A hospice patient is finalizing a healthcare directive on a Sunday evening. Bedside calls are the most common reason the phone rings overnight, and they almost always get prioritized.
Real estate transfer deadlines. A family beneficiary deed needs to be signed before a parent travels. A quitclaim for a divorce settlement has to be recorded by Monday. An FSBO seller is leaving town and needs the deed completed tonight. These are routine deadline-driven calls, and most run at the standard closing rate without any rush component.
Estate planning around work schedules.Families coordinating wills, trusts, healthcare directives, and powers of attorney often need to sign when everyone can be in the same room. For some, that's a Saturday morning at the dining table. For others, it's 9 p.m. on a weeknight after the kids are down. Either works at the standard rate.
Business and time-zone-driven matters.Corporate resolutions needed before an early-morning board meeting. I-9 verifications for swing-shift employees who can't come to HR during the day. Affidavits for litigation deadlines that don't respect the clock. International signings coordinated around an overseas business day. These show up less often than bedside work but are reliable off-hours volume.
How the rush surcharge works.
The $75 same-hour rush is the only addition to standard pricing for off-hours work, and it applies in one specific situation: you need me on site within roughly 60 minutes of the call. Outside that window, scheduled appointments at any hour run at the normal rate. The rush charge isn't a stealth after-hours fee; it's a same-hour-availability fee.
The reason the rush fee exists is operational. A same-hour booking displaces whatever else is on the schedule, often a previously committed appointment that has to be reshuffled. It also assumes a buffer for things you didn't know about when you called: the signer's ID isn't on hand, the document needs a witness you don't have, the building's after-hours entry is tricky. The $75 covers the friction of compressing all of that into an hour.
Things that do not trigger the rush surcharge: a Sunday morning signing, a 4 a.m. appointment scheduled the day before, a Christmas Eve visit booked Monday, a back-to-back Saturday packet. None of those displace anything, because the schedule already has them. They all run at the standard rate.
Where I serve.
Eighteen cities across the Denver metro, from downtown out to Castle Rock, Boulder, and the eastern suburbs. If you're not on the list, call anyway. Most adjacent towns get a quote on the phone in under a minute.

Downtown Denver travel is a flat $25 on top of notarial fees. Travel beyond downtown falls in a $40 to $60 range depending on neighborhood. Same-hour service anywhere in the metro adds $75 to cover the rearrange-the-day cost; it's an option, not a default.
A few practical notes on geography. East-side appointments (Aurora and the eastern medical district) and south-side ones (Centennial, Highlands Ranch, Parker) tend to be 30-to-45-minute drives from central Denver, so I block them in advance when possible. Boulder, Castle Rock, and the far north end are easier on weekends. If you need a specific time window in a farther city, mention it on the call and I'll work it into the day's schedule.
Four steps, any hour.
The 24-hour process is the same as any other mobile notary appointment, with two differences: the phone is the primary intake (not the form), and the call-to-arrival window is set by the urgency rather than the schedule.
- 01
Call (don't text or email)
For anything off-hours or same-hour, the phone is the right path. Tell me the document type, the location, the urgency, and whether the signer is ready. Voicemail and email are slower, especially overnight; the phone reaches me directly.
- 02
I confirm time and price
I quote the total on the call: notarial fee, travel, and whether the rush surcharge applies. If the request is impossible (signer not awake, facility closed to visitors, doc requires witnesses I can't coordinate), I'll say so before you wait for me.
- 03
I arrive at the agreed time
Standard mobile notary kit: seal, journal, certificates, ID-verification tools. For overnight or holiday visits, I plan the route around closed buildings, limited parking, and any after-hours entry instructions you've given me.
- 04
Notarize and document
I verify the signer's ID, confirm awareness and willingness, walk through the document without practicing law, witness the signature, apply the seal, and log the act in my journal. You keep the originals. Most off-hours signings finish in 15 to 30 minutes.
24-hour notary pricing.
The same pricing structure that applies to every other mobile notary appointment applies to 24-hour service. There is no after-hours, weekend, or holiday surcharge for scheduled work. The same-hour rush is the only add-on, and it only applies in the specific situation described above.
- Notarial fee$10 per signature
- Downtown Denver travel$25 flat
- Denver metro travel (outside downtown)$40 to $60
- Sunday, evening, overnight, holiday (scheduled)Standard rate
- Same-hour rush (within 60 min of call)+$75
A typical scheduled overnight appointment at a downtown Denver location runs $35 total ($10 notarial fee + $25 travel). A same-hour 2 a.m. emergency at the same location runs $110 ($10 + $25 + $75 rush). A Sunday-morning estate-planning packet with three signatures in the metro might run $80 to $110($30 in notarial fees + $40 to $60 travel + $0 rush, since it's scheduled).
24-hour notary questions.
Every answer below is visible in the initial HTML, no accordions. If the timing of your situation isn't covered here, the fastest answer is to call.
- 01
Are you really available 24/7?
- Yes, by appointment. 24/7 by appointment means I take calls and signings Sunday through Saturday, daytime and overnight. It doesn't mean an office is staffed; the phone is the way in. If you call at 2 a.m. and I'm available, I'll take the appointment. If I'm already on another job or genuinely can't, I'll say so honestly rather than running you in circles.
- 02
What's the difference between 24-hour and same-hour service?
- 24-hour means I'll schedule a signing at any time of day or night, including Sundays, holidays, and the middle of the night. Same-hour means I need to be on site within roughly 60 minutes of the call. 24-hour scheduling runs at the standard rate. Same-hour rush adds a $75 surcharge because the booking displaces whatever else is on the calendar.
- 03
When does the $75 rush surcharge apply?
- Only when you need me on site within about 60 minutes of the call. Scheduling for later today, tonight, tomorrow, this weekend, or a planned 3 a.m. appointment does not trigger the rush surcharge. The rush is about urgency, not about the time of day or day of the week.
- 04
Do Sunday, evening, holiday, or overnight appointments cost more?
- No. Standard pricing applies seven days a week, daytime and overnight, including federal holidays. A scheduled 2 a.m. Tuesday signing or a Christmas Day appointment runs at the same $10 per signature plus travel that a Wednesday afternoon signing does. The rush surcharge is the only add-on, and it applies only when same-hour service is needed.
- 05
What does a typical 2 a.m. notary call cost?
- If it was scheduled in advance, the cost is the same as a daytime appointment: $10 per signature plus distance-based travel (downtown Denver $25, metro $40 to $60). If the 2 a.m. call comes in at 1:15 a.m. and you need me there within an hour, the $75 same-hour rush applies, bringing a downtown signing to roughly $110.
- 06
Can I schedule a 4 a.m. notary appointment a week in advance?
- Yes. Pre-scheduled appointments run at the standard rate regardless of the time. Flight crews, swing-shift workers, and families coordinating around a hospitalized relative often schedule unusual hours days or weeks in advance. The rush fee doesn't apply when the booking has runway.
- 07
Are there situations where you turn down a 24-hour call?
- Yes, and I try to flag them on the phone before driving. The signer being asleep or sedated rules out the appointment; the notary has to verify awareness and willingness. Documents that require disinterested witnesses I can't coordinate at the hour aren't possible. Jail visits outside facility visiting hours are facility-restricted, not notary-restricted. Hospital visits to ICU or restricted units require care-team coordination. I'll tell you what's possible during the call.
- 08
How do I actually reach you at 3 a.m.?
- Call (720) 336-0536. The phone rings through directly, not to an answering service, and I either answer or call back quickly. Email and the contact form on this site are slower; they're better for non-urgent scheduling questions. For a 3 a.m. emergency, the phone is the path.
- 09
What documents typically get notarized after hours?
- Bedside hospital and hospice signings are the most common: powers of attorney, healthcare directives, last-minute wills. Real-estate closings with same-day funding deadlines come up often. Estate-planning packets for families coordinating around work schedules. Business documents (corporate resolutions, affidavits, I-9 verifications) for companies with overnight operations. The mix shifts by week, but bedside work dominates the overnight calls.
- 10
Do hospitals and jails work at 2 a.m. for notary visits?
- Hospitals usually do, with the patient's care team informed and the nursing station coordinated. Patient rooms and most floors stay accessible overnight. Jails and detention centers generally do not; visiting hours are restrictive and most facilities don't admit notaries outside scheduled visitation windows. I'll confirm facility access on the call before driving.
- 11
What if the appointment runs long past the original time?
- If the signing takes longer than expected because of a slow signer, a facility delay, or additional documents, I won't bill a surprise overage at the table. The standard waiting fee in the industry is $25 per 30 minutes after a 15-minute grace period, and I apply that only when the delay is clearly outside the booked scope and only after telling you on site. Quietly stacking time onto the bill isn't how I work.
