Billing and account research from public material
Provider-specific research notes are displayed separately from fields that contain only an unavailable-information marker. Read qualifiers in each note and verify current account terms with the provider.
- Billing frequency
- Monthly; eBill customers receive an email when the monthly bill is ready to view online.
- Rate structure
- Fixed monthly service charge plus commodity charges for water and sewer; Prince William Water adopts annual rate schedules and purchases reclamation services from UOSA for part of the service area.
- Residential cost reference
- The official comparison gives $88.85 per month for a typical single-family 3/4-inch customer using 5,000 gallons, based on rates effective July 1, 2026. The 2025 comparison was $81.55.
- Wastewater and sewer calculation
- Residential water and sewer are billed as related monthly capacity and commodity services; Prince William Water notes that all water can enter the sewer system and customers paying both services pay similar capacity components. Exact water/sewer commodity rates depend on the adopted schedule and service area.
- New-account deposit
- New service requires a non-refundable application fee; tenants must also pay an advance payment deposit shown on the first bill. The Customer Handbook contains the fee schedule; the reviewed FAQ does not state one universal current dollar amount.
- Activation or transfer fee
- The application fee is non-refundable and appears on the first bill; exact current amount depends on the Authority schedule. Routine service-start/transfer charges are not fully exposed in the reviewed FAQ.
