Sewer Billing Information

A $15 charge will be assessed for all returned checks and auto-pay transfers.

All monthly bills are for service the month prior to the due date. For example bills mailed the end of August would show billing period of August 1 through August 31. Quarterly bills are for the previous month and two months in advance. For example bills mailed the end of December would show the billing period of December 1 through February 28.  Annual bills are for the previous month and eleven months in advance.

Single family residential customers billed directly by RVSS may contact the RVSS office at 541-664-6300 to set up quarterly or annual billing. Quarterly billing nets a 3 percent savings and requires the customer to pay two months in advance, and annual billing saves the customer 5 percent and requires the customer to pay 11 months in advance.  For a breakdown of the residential rates billed by RVSS, click here.

Payments may be made at the payment drop box at our office at 138 W. Vilas Road, at Central Point City Hall, Phoenix City Hall, or at 13 other utility payment locations throughout the Rogue Valley. Please include the payment stub. Click on this link to be redirected to the page with a list of all drop box locations.

All customers billed directly by RVSS and who have set up online account access can choose to have their sewer account payments made automatically with their debit or credit card.  The amount billed will be charged to the card on the date you choose.  If  the payment is declined, the customer will receive an email to that effect.  Auto Pay will be disabled if the card is declined more than once.  The customer is required to keep the card data current.

There are two ways to have your sewer bill paid automatically (these options are only available to customers who are billed directly by Rogue Valley Sewer Services):

1. Through auto pay in your online account using your debit or credit card.  Click here for "How do I Activate Auto Pay?" The amount paid through auto pay will be the total account balance at the time the auto pay is processed.  If you have previously been paying using the autopay through your bank, please contact RVSS to cancel that service. If your credit card expires, the payment will be declined.  Please remember to replace your card information on the payment site prior to expiration and/or your billing date to continue your autopay without disruption.
2. Auto Pay through your bank can be set up by calling 385-218-0343.

Payments can be made electronically using your Visa, MasterCard, or Discover card either by phone at 833-292-0650 or at this website by clicking on My Account then Sewer Account Access and Payment.   Online account access must be created by the customer in order to save the credit or debit card information.  A number of banks offer bill paying services whereby all monthly bills may be paid by one phone call or using their website. There may be a small monthly charge for this service. Also, there are internet services where all bills can be paid through the internet for a charge. 

All charges for sewer services are the responsibility of the property owner of record. All accounts will be in the name of the owner unless he/she requests that the bills be sent to the commercial tenant(s) or paid by a property manager. Print and mail to RVSS either the Commercial Properties Owner Request for Tenant Billing or the Owner Request for Property Management Billing or call our office at 541-664-6300 and request either form. Signing one of these forms indicates acceptance of responsibility for the account balances even though the account will be in the commercial tenant's name or billed to the property manager. RVSS will not mail duplicate invoices for sewer service. However, an owner may call our office at any time to get the balance on their accounts.
 

Customers who will not be occupying their residence for two or more months may request billing be temporarily stopped. Estimated date of return must be given, the account must be current,   water must be turned off (those on a well must have their power turned off), and a fee equal to one month's service charge must be paid.

Accounts are due and payable 15 days after being billed. Late fees are charged monthly on all amounts that are 10 days or more past due. They are calculated at 3% of the unpaid balance, with a $3 minimum monthly late charge.
