Switching to all paperless billing is a great way to reduce paper waste and do our part to create a better environment. Fewer paper bills means less paper waste in landfills and fewer trees cut down.

Paperless billing also allows you to receive invoices several days faster than it would via USPS, and is safer and more secure than traditional mailed invoices. Mailed invoices make your personal and account information susceptible to mail theft and fraud. Switching to paperless billing reduces the risk of criminals accessing your sensitive information.

  • Select View/Pay Bill in the upper right corner
