Winter Averaging
Most of the water used during the winter months (November to March) occurs indoors, and the wastewater goes directly into the sewer. Water use is much higher in the summer months (April to October) due to outdoor activities. Most water used outdoors does not go directly into the sewer. To give residential customers a break during high usage months, sewer bills are based on an average of your prior winter usage or actual current usage, whichever is lower.
Solid Waste (Sanitation) fees are included in your City utilities bill. For more information about the City of Fort Smith Solid Waste Services Department, including rates and pick-up schedules, visit their webpage by clicking the link below.
