Receiving a Wire at Collegedale Credit Union

Collegedale Credit Union receives incoming wires through our corporate credit union, Volunteer Corporate Credit Union (also known as VolCorp). When you send a wire to us, you will need to use VolCorp’s routing number as the routing number on the wire. You’ll put CCU’s routing number as the account number. In the notes on the wire, make sure you put in the name and account number of the CCU member receiving the funds, so we’ll be sure to know whose account to put the money in!
