Things to consider

Keep these things in mind:

Service availability

  • Service stops performed Monday - Thursday, 8 AM to 5 PM
    • We do not turn off service on Friday, Saturday, Sunday, or the day before a County holiday

For all services

You will need to provide the following:

  • Address where service will start and/or stop
  • The date you'll want service to start and/or stop
  • Contact phone number
  • Email address
  • All fees and deposits due

Starting new service

To complete starting service using the online form, you must have an account number from an existing or previous service. If you do not have an account number, you can fill out the form and we will call you back within two days to finish the process.

We require identification for accounts with no previous account number. You will NOT provide these on the form. We will verify identification only over the phone or in-person.

Identification includes:

  • Social security card - can be done by phone
  • Passport - can be done by phone, requires deposit
  • Driver license - must be done in person, by appointment

Stopping service

You will need your account number and the address where you want the final bill sent.

Moving service

If you want us to stop service at the old address, provide the date for that, otherwise we will only need the date to start at the new address.
