Wheat Ridge check cashing, money orders, and bill pay

Not financial advice, not affiliated. Check Desk is an independent information site. It is not a bank, money transmitter, check casher, or financial adviser, and it is not affiliated with USPS, Walmart, King Soopers, or any business it lists. This page is general information, not financial, legal, or tax advice, and not a recommendation to use or avoid any product, loan, or account. Fees, hours, ID rules, and services change and can differ by location. Confirm with the official source or the location before you go. We do not promote payday loans, title loans, or other credit products.
Short version. For money orders, Post Offices charge $2.65 for $0.01 to $500.00 and $3.75 for $500.01 to $1,000.00, the same at every Post Office [1]. Bring cash or a debit card; USPS does not take credit cards for money orders. Cashing a USPS money order at a Post Office is free [1]. King Soopers stores in Wheat Ridge that tag money orders on their official store page are listed too, but King Soopers says the cost "will vary by state" and does not publish a fee [3], so call ahead. There is no Walmart Supercenter inside Wheat Ridge city limits. Walmart publishes a $1 maximum money-order fee [2] at its stores elsewhere; see the Denver money-order list.

How to read this list
- Only checked locations. A location appears only if its official store page or official USPS location page was opened and it lists the service. We do not add a service because the chain offers it elsewhere.
- City limits, not mailing city. A location is on this page only if its address is inside the city's limits (checked with the U.S. Census Bureau geocoder). Some addresses use a different mailing city.
- Fees are chain policy. The fee column quotes the brand's official policy page. It is not a store's till price. "Not published, call ahead" means the brand does not publish a dollar figure.
- Open evenings means the published hours run past 5 p.m. on at least one weekday. Open weekends means published hours on Saturday or Sunday. Both come only from published hours.
What is not on this list yet
- No Walmart Supercenter is inside Wheat Ridge city limits. Walmart's official store directory and store finder showed none on Nov 11, 2026. The closest Supercenter, in Lakeside (5957 W 44th Ave), is outside Wheat Ridge and is not listed.
- Check cashing: no Wheat Ridge location we checked lists general check cashing on its official page, so this city has no check-cashing or bill-pay list yet. For checked check-cashing desks, see check cashing in Denver and the check-cashing fee guide.
- Payday and title-loan storefronts, including ACE Cash Express, are not listed, even when they also cash checks. See ACE's check-cashing policy.
- Stand-alone Western Union and MoneyGram agents have not been checked.
FAQ
Is the Wheat Ridge Post Office open on Saturday?

Most do. The official store pages listed here tag money orders. King Soopers does not publish a money-order fee; it says the cost will vary by state. The stores publish hours of 6 a.m. to 11 p.m. every day, but money desk hours are not published, so call ahead.
