Got water? Gotta pay for it! Here’s how to keep it flowing…

Hey there, fellow Adams County residents! I’ve been dealing with water bills for years now and I know how frustrating it can be to figure out the payment process. That’s why I’ve put together this complete guide on paying your Adams County Water Association bill. Whether you’re a tech-savvy person or prefer traditional methods ACWA offers plenty of options to suit your needs.

Water bills might not be the most exciting topic, but they’re definitely important! Nobody wants their water shut off because of a missed payment. So let’s dive in (water pun intended) and explore all the different ways you can pay your bill.

Why Choose Adams County Water Association?

Before we get into the payment methods I want to give a quick shoutout to ACWA. They’ve been providing reliable water service to our community for years and they’ve received several accolades including

• MS Department of Health Rating recognition
• USDA Rural Development Award
• Featured in the MS Rural Water Association Magazine
• Praised for their water taste (yes, that’s actually a thing!)

Now, let’s get to the main point – how to pay your water bill without any hassle.

1. Pay Online Through the Customer Web Portal

This is probably the most convenient option for most of us who are always online. Adams County Water Association has a dedicated web portal for bill payments at adamscountywater.epayub.com.

How to pay online:

1. Visit the ACWA web portal
2. Log in with your user name and password
3. Follow the prompts to make your payment
4. You can pay using:
   • Check
   • VISA
   • MasterCard
   • Discover

If you don’t already have an account, you’ll need to register first. Just click on the “Register here” link on the login page. The best part? This service is available 24/7, so you can pay your bill at 3 AM in your pajamas if that’s your thing (no judgment here!).

Pro tip: Sign up for email billing while you’re there! It’s better for the environment and means one less piece of mail cluttering up your counter.

Important note: All online payments will be applied to your account by the next business day, excluding weekends and holidays.

2. Set Up Automatic Electronic Draft

Are you like me and constantly forgetting to pay bills on time? Electronic drafting might be your savior! With this option, ACWA will automatically withdraw the bill amount from your specified account on the due date.

How to set up electronic draft:

1. Visit the ACWA office in person
2. OR set it up online
3. Complete a draft form
4. Provide a voided check

Once set up, you literally never have to think about your water bill again. The payment happens automatically, and you can cross one more thing off your to-do list.

3. Pay by Phone

Maybe you’re not internet-savvy or just prefer talking to a real person. No worries! ACWA offers a phone payment option as well.

Simply call 1-844-395-2241 anytime and follow the prompts to enter your payment. You can use:

• Visa
• MasterCard
• Discover
• Electronic check

This is super convenient when you suddenly remember your bill is due today and don’t have time to mail it or drive to the office.

4. Mail Your Payment

For those who prefer the traditional route, you can always send your payment by mail. Here’s what you need to do:

1. Write a check or get a money order payable to “Adams County Water Association”
2. Enclose the small portion of your bill with your payment
3. Mail it to:
   Adams County Water AssociationP.O. Box 70Washington, MS 39190

Just make sure to mail it several days before the due date to ensure it arrives on time!

5. Visit the ACWA Office

If you’re old school like my grandpa and prefer to pay in person, you can always visit the ACWA office. They accept multiple payment methods:

• Cash
• Check
• Money order
• Visa
• MasterCard

6. Use the After-Hours Drop Box

Missed office hours but need to make a payment ASAP? No problem! ACWA has a payment drop box located at the drive-thru entrance of the building.

Just place your payment in an envelope and drop it in the box. Make sure to include your account number or service address on the envelope so your payment gets posted correctly.

Frequently Asked Questions About ACWA Bill Payments

When is my water bill due?

Your bill is typically due on the date specified on your statement. If you’re on electronic draft, the amount will be withdrawn on this date automatically.

What happens if I miss a payment?

Missing a payment could result in late fees or even service disconnection if left unpaid for too long. If you’re having trouble paying your bill, I recommend contacting ACWA directly to discuss possible arrangements.

Is there a fee for paying online?

ACWA’s website doesn’t explicitly mention a convenience fee for online payments, but it’s always good practice to check during the payment process for any additional fees.

What should I do if I forget my online account password?

If you forget your password, simply click on the “Forgot your password?” link on the login page, and follow the instructions to reset it.

Can I set up recurring payments without electronic draft?

While electronic draft is the main recurring payment option, you might be able to set up recurring payments through your bank’s bill pay service independently.

Why I Recommend Online Bill Pay

I’ve tried pretty much all of these payment methods over the years, and I gotta say, online bill pay through the ACWA portal is by far the most convenient. Here’s why:

1. 24/7 access – Pay whenever, wherever
2. Email reminders – No more forgetting due dates
3. Payment history – Easy to track for budgeting purposes
4. Environmental friendly – Less paper waste

The online portal also lets you manage your account profile, which means you can update your contact information without having to call or visit the office.

Tips for Managing Your Water Bill

1. Check for leaks – Even small leaks can significantly increase your water bill. A dripping faucet or running toilet can waste thousands of gallons!

2. Consider water efficiency – ACWA has resources on using water efficiently. Check out their website for tips.

3. Track your usage – Being aware of how much water you’re using can help you identify ways to reduce consumption.

4. Pay on time – Avoid late fees by making sure your payment arrives before the due date.

5. Keep records – Save your payment confirmations, especially for online or phone payments.
