UPDATE: June 15, 2020
To assist our customers during the COVID-19 emergency, Trussville Gas & Water temporarily suspended gas and water disconnections due to non-pay. Additionally, we worked with our customers, who had difficulty paying their bills, by offering a flexible payment plan that fit their financial needs.
Effective June 15, we resumed disconnections for past due accounts.
We are no longer offering a COVID-19 flexible payment plan. However, we are still willing to discuss payment arrangements with our customers who are having financial difficulty during this time.
We are prepared to continue to maintain the safe and reliable natural gas and water service that our valued customers trust us to deliver. It is our honor to serve you and the Trussville Gas and Water community during this unprecedented time.
