Turn Off

A work order must be signed by the customer requesting disconnection of service. A forwarding address for final billing and/or refund of deposit must be provided. Customers are ALWAYS responsible for the billing until proper disconnection has been made. Turn Off will not be accepted by phone unless approved by Manager.

Notice of Disconnection

Any unpaid NET bill not paid within 45 days of the due date will be subject to disconnection and the amount of the gross billing is due and payable to avoid disconnection.

Talladega Water & Sewer is authorized to establish the delinquent date and last day of service as shown on the mailed water bill, provided neither date shall be on a holiday, weekend or other time when the business office is not open to the public for the purpose of making collections and reconnecting service.
