In person or by mail from Asheville
With 8 h 56 min of driving, you cannot reach the Embassy before its morning counter closes unless you leave in the night, so count on a night near Washington, D.C.
A same-day NVR at the Embassy has a short drop-off window early in the morning, which from Asheville means arriving the day before.
The Embassy books the e-passport visit inside the national portal, epassport.gov.bd, and says it cannot book those slots itself, while an NVR is walk-in.
