A will means nothing to you...don't even bother accepting it. You never take direction from a will anyways, so it means nothing to you.
We prefer the entire trust packet, as it later on discusses successor trustees in the event something should happen to the current trustees, but most customers are being advised elsewhere not to share the whole document. Whatever.
We do require that the customer provide us with the front page or two of the trust showing how the account is to be titled, and who the initial trustees are, or any pages showing a change to that if there have been changes since the inception of the trust (ie. a family trust where Dad has since died and daughter is now trustee in his place with Mom). We also require the page(s) of notarized signatures.
Sometimes, the Attorney will draft a summary page of the trusts highlight points that apply to the bank, which details all the info you need in a one or two page format. This will also be signed and notarized by all parties. We are happy to accept this also.
Any less than that, we politely decline the account.
