South Salt Lake provides utility service for water, wastewater / sewer, stormwater, waste disposal and recycling for its residents and businesses. Depending on the location of the property, utility services may be provided by a combination of entities, including South Salt Lake Public Works, Salt Lake City Public Utilities, Jordan Valley Water Conservancy District, Mt. Olympus Improvement District, and various garbage companies. Contact our Utility Billing office if you are unsure of your utility service provider.

If you are a new tenant, you will need to pay a security deposit of $75 (or 2 months estimated billing, whichever is greater). Complete the tenante form below, and then we will contact you for payment.
If the property is being leased and the tenant is required to pay for utility service, we also require the owner to sign an Authorization Form (PDF) allowing the tenant to put the bills into their name. Property owners are ultimately responsible for all outstanding charges not paid by the tenant.
Re/Connection Fees
If water service has been terminated at a property for non-payment, payment of the full account balance and a reconnect fee is required to restor water service. There is a $25 reconnect fee to have water service restored by 3:00 p.m., and $65 after 3:00 p.m.
There is a $50 fee If garbage cans need to be delivered, plus the prorated amount of billing. All fees must be paid prior to service being rendered.
Special permits may be required for inspection of non-qualifying residential units to determine the number of units and corresponding trash collection needs.
