If your payroll check drawn on a bank with branches all over the country, cash the check at a branch in Las Vegas.

This doesn't always work. My friend started a new job last year and had to go for 1 months' training in Boston and they gave him his first paycheck in person and he took it to the local branch that had the address listed on the check and they told him they don't cash payroll checks unless you are a customer.

I am not sure how this works these days. My paycheck is drawn on Wells Fargo, so I decided I would cash it there because that was far more convenient for where I was going. They told me there would be a $5 fee for cashing the check. I always thought that having the checks you write honored at the bank was part of having an account there.
