2026 Utility Bills Arriving – Payment Due March 31

News

Port Coquitlam property owners will be receiving their 2026 utility bill this week and payment is due March 31.

The utility bill covers essential water and sewer services. These are flat annual fees based on the services provided to each property. Property owners who have not received their bills by mid-March should contact the Tax Office.

A 5% penalty will be added to unpaid charges after March 31. An additional 5% penalty will be applied after June 1. Avoid these extra charges by paying on time.

Avoid the Line, Pay Online

The City encourages property owners to save time by taking advantage of easy ways to pay such as:

  • Pay Online Via Your Bank 
    Pay through your financial institution's online banking system. Add Port Coquitlam Water/Sewer as a payee and use the five-digit Account number from your utility bill. (If your bank requires an eight-digit number, add 101 at the beginning of your account number.)
