Customer Deposits
Each commercial utility customer is charged a water deposit, a sewer deposit, and a non-refundable $50 application fee. The water and sewer deposits are refundable, less the amount due on the final bill, upon closing the account. Customers may also request (in writing) a refund of a utility deposit after twelve months of utility service. The customer's account may not show any penalties charged against the account during the twelve months prior to the request in order to qualify for a complete refund of deposit.
Sanitation Carts
For all options, your poly-cart will be delivered the week following the week the order is placed. The poly-cart stays with the business when and if a customer moves to a new address. Customers who remove the poly-cart when they move will be billed the replacement value of the item(s).
*Please note: recycling is not available for commercial accounts and commercial accounts needing a roll-off or dumpster will need to contact Waste Connections directly at (972) 289-6714 to set up service.
Disconnect Services
If you are moving please complete and submit the Disconnect Form by email, fax, mail, drop box or in person at the City Hall.
Customers are responsible to notify the Utility Billing Department of a (future) disconnection date to avoid discrepancies with the final date.
*Please note, request for disconnect of service received after 3:00 pm Monday-Thursday will result in disconnection on the following workday.
