Utility Bills

New residents must contact city hall to set up their utility account.  A $75 deposit is required from all new renters and property owners.  If the account is paid on time for 12 consecutive months and no penalties are accumulated, the deposit will be credited to your utility bill on the 13th billing cycle.

City residents are billed monthly for water, sewer, trash and yard waste pick-up. As set forth by City Ordinance, the base fee is charged monthly regardless of occupancy or usage. Bills are mailed on or before the first of each month and Due by the 15th of the month regardless of the day of the week. After the 15th of the month, a 10% penalty is added to the balance.

A secure drop box is located outside the main doors on the west side of City Hall for customer convenience.

Utility bills may be paid at city hall or over the phone with a debit or credit card. 

A nominal fee of 3% or minimum of $2 is charged by the processing company for utilizing this payment option, which is not collected by the City of Perry.

Direct Debit (ACH) is also available for paying monthly bills. Mail to/drop off completed forms at city hall. *NOTE: Please allow two weeks to one month to implement the first automatic payment withdrawal.

Trash

Weekly Trash Pickup

Trash removal is included with the monthly utility bill.  Trash is picked-up every Friday, and should be placed at the curb before 6 a.m. If Friday is a holiday, trash may be picked-up the following day (the week of Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day etc).  A change in the pick-up date is generally posted on this website, at City Hall, and on the City’s Facebook page.   Trash pick-up includes household wastes ONLY – NO yard waste and NO construction materials.

Weekly service includes disposal of one bulk item at no additional cost.  Please place your extra item at the curb near your cart by 6:00 am. Single items do not need to be scheduled in advance.   Some large items cannot be picked up with the standard truck, Waste Management may tag your item for future pick up in 2-3 business days.  Questions about your service can be answered by Waste Management by calling (866) 797-9018 or e-mail customerservice_MIOHIN@wm.com.
