Utility Billing Customer Service

The Utility Billing staff is responsible for the billing of water and sewer accounts for the residents of the City of Rhinelander.  Utility Billing also handles requests to stop and start service, answer customer inquiries concerning their accounts and handles all billing maintenance entries necessary to send accurate and timely bills to our customers.

Water bills are calculated and billed quarterly.  If a utility bill has a due date of Jan 20, then the following bills will be due April 20, July 20 and October 20.
