Where to pay your Titusville water bill
The City of Titusville offers three main ways to pay your water bill: online through their website, by mail, or in person at their office. The online portal is the fastest option and lets you pay immediately without waiting for a check to arrive. You can set up a one-time payment or enroll in automatic monthly payments so the bill comes out of your bank account on the same date each month.
To pay online, visit the City of Titusville's official website and look for the utility billing section. You will need your account number, which appears on your bill statement. The city accepts payments by bank account (ACH transfer) or credit/debit card, though credit card payments may include a small processing fee.
If you prefer to mail a check, send it to the address printed on your bill. Include your account number on the check so the payment reaches the right account. Mail payments take longer to process — typically 7 to 10 business days — so send them early if your due date is approaching.
For in-person payments, visit the City of Titusville's utility office during business hours. Call ahead to confirm the office location and hours, as these can change seasonally or due to city events.

Understanding your Titusville water bill
Your water bill shows the amount of water you used during the billing period, measured in gallons or cubic feet depending on the meter type. The bill also lists any sewer charges, stormwater fees, or other utility services bundled into one statement. The due date is clearly marked, and paying by that date keeps you from incurring late fees.
The bill breaks down charges into base fees (a fixed monthly amount) and usage charges (what you pay for the water you actually consumed). Some months your bill will be higher if you used more water — for example, during summer months when outdoor watering increases. If you notice a sudden spike in usage, check for leaks in toilets, outdoor faucets, or pipes.
Late fees apply if payment does not arrive by the due date. The exact amount varies, so check your bill or call the city's utility office to learn the current late fee. Paying online or in person on the due date itself avoids this charge.
Setting up automatic payments
Automatic payments remove the risk of forgetting a due date. Through the city's online portal, you can authorize the city to withdraw your payment directly from your bank account each month. The withdrawal happens on a date you choose, typically a few days before the due date.
To enroll, log into the online payment system with your account number and select the automatic payment option. You will need to provide your bank account number and routing number. Once set up, the payment processes automatically each month until you cancel it.
If your bill amount changes month to month (which is normal for water usage), the automatic payment will deduct whatever the current bill is. You can pause or cancel automatic payments at any time through the same online portal.
What to do if you cannot pay on time
If you know you will miss the due date, contact the City of Titusville's utility office as soon as possible. Some cities offer short payment extensions or payment plans for customers facing temporary hardship, though availability varies. Calling before the due date is far better than waiting until after — the city is more likely to work with you if you reach out proactively.
Late fees and service disconnection are the consequences of unpaid bills. The city will typically send a notice before disconnecting service, giving you a window to pay or arrange a plan. Once service is disconnected, reconnection fees apply on top of the unpaid balance.
If you are struggling with water bills due to income loss or unexpected expense, ask the utility office whether the city participates in any low-income assistance programs. Some Florida municipalities have funds to help residents in hardship, though not all do.
Reading your account number and finding past bills
Your account number is a unique identifier for your water service at your address. It appears in the top section of your bill, usually near your name and service address. You will need this number to pay online, set up automatic payments, or call the city with questions about your account.
The City of Titusville's online portal lets you view past bills and payment history. Log in with your account number to see statements from previous months, which is useful if you want to track your usage over time or find a bill you did not receive in the mail.
If you cannot locate your account number, call the utility office and provide your service address. They will give you the number over the phone.
Contacting the City of Titusville utility office
The utility office handles questions about your bill, payment options, account changes, and service issues. You can reach them by phone during business hours — the phone number is listed on your bill statement. Have your account number ready when you call.
Common reasons to contact the office include reporting a leak, requesting a meter reading, asking about a high bill, setting up service at a new address, or discussing payment difficulties. The office can also explain any charges on your bill that you do not recognize.
If you move within Titusville or out of the city, notify the utility office so they can close your account and process any deposit refund you may be owed.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I pay my Titusville water bill with a credit card online?

What happens if I miss the due date?
Late fees are added to your account if payment does not arrive by the due date. The exact fee amount is listed on your bill. If you continue to miss payments, the city will send a disconnection notice before shutting off your water service.
How long does it take for a mailed check to be processed?
Mail payments typically take 7 to 10 business days to reach the city and be recorded on your account. If your due date is within two weeks, paying online or in person is safer to avoid late fees.
Can I set up automatic payments and then cancel them later?
Yes. You can cancel automatic payments anytime through the online portal or by calling the utility office. There is no penalty for canceling, and you can restart automatic payments whenever you want.
What should I do if my water bill is unusually high?
Check for leaks in toilets, outdoor faucets, and visible pipes. If you find no leak, call the utility office and ask them to review your meter reading. They can also compare your usage to previous months to help identify the cause of the increase.
