Water and Sewer

Water and sewer bills are mailed on the last business day of each month.  Information included on the water bill includes usage, due date, separate water and sewer charges, and whether the bill is based on an actual or estimated reading of your meter.  Residential accounts utilize a state-of-the-art water metering system that is remotely read twice a day by computer.

For questions regarding water and sewer billing, or if you are moving from Streamwood and wish to close your water and sewer account, please call the Finance Department at (630) 736-3810.
