Have you noticed that banks either hate one and are ok with the other: ie they have no problem ordering but they give you a hard time about turning them in or the bank has no problem with you turning halves in but they don't want to order them for you.
I went to a Well's that cut me down to $100 of halves a week and took in $150 in halves to turn in. I told the one teller that I was bringing them back because I knew they needed them for the other customers  She said in a sarcastic tone "Well isnt that nice of you since we gave you all those wrappers last week" then told me to go to the merchant teller. He had no problems taking them and I asked them if I could bring $500 to $1000 bags in and he said no problem.
I cashed in my $150 and then asked him for my weekly $100 
I sorted those and went to another Well's and had a clear plastic bank bag and went into the branch. The branch manager said they could not take them like that. I asked her why since that seems to be the standard with the other branches. She said it was at the branches discretion how to take them in and said since their vault was small that a bag takes up too much room.
I told her fine and that if she gave me wrappers I would wrap them right there. As I was wrapping them, I asked her if she would order me $500 a week and I wouldn't bring any more rolled halves in to her branch. She said that would be no problem as long as I took the whole box. I thought it was pretty cool that she was willing to order them for me.
So now I can pick up at her branch where she has no problem ordering them for me and then dump them at the branch that limits me to $100.

| Sounds like the dump bank doesnt mind you bringing bags. Thats awesome. Make sure to take advantage of that. Even better is if they can supply you bags. See, you worked yourself a good deal. Nice going. |

Ordering and dumping at the same bank might not be a good idea.I know it is two different branches, but you might start getting your dumps back.
If they both use the same armored car service, your bags are brought in then wrapped and sent back out to your pickup bank.
Even if they have 20-30 boxes already rolled, you will eventually get your dumps back. I dump at a Brinks serviced bank and pick up at a Garda serviced bank.

| How do you know? All the boxes look the same when I pick them up no matter if they are at a Chase or a Wells |
