UTILITY AND SERVICES BILLING AND RATES
For more new resident information and to set up your services, please contact the City of Woodland.
Your City of Woodland Utility Bill includes water, sewer, garbage and recycling services. The City follows a bi-monthly cycle which means that you will be billed in two month increments and will receive a bill every other month. See the chart below for the City’s billing cycle. Your bill will be due on the 15th of the month unless the 15th falls on a weekend or holiday. Should that happen, your bill is due the following business day.
The City accepts payments in person, via our Payment Drop Box (located in the public parking lot at Second & Davidson) or by Direct Pay Service. A 10% late charge (minimum $10) will be accrued on all unpaid accounts after the close of business on the billing due date. Past due notices are processed the next business day following the due date. Shut-off notices are mailed to delinquent accounts on the 21st of the month that the bill was due. Please call the Clerk-Treasurer’s office at 360-225-8281 to make payment arrangements if you know that you will be unable to pay the balance of your bill before shut-offs are scheduled.
Water service will be shut-off on all delinquent accounts that have not made prior payment arrangements on the 6th of the month following the due date. The balance due plus a $40 reconnection fee must be paid in full before service will be restored, usually within 24 hours of receipt of payment.
