4. Drive By, Use Our Dropbox
You don't even have to get out of your car. Customers who are out and about can use our dropbox. As you enter the parking lot, it is located to the left on the median to the Sunset Building. A sticker with the Johnson County Wastewater logo helps to identify it. Johnson County Wastewater strongly discourages cash payments placed in the Dropbox. The preferred method is check or money order.
5. The U.S. Mail
To pay by mail, please return the lower portion of your statement along with a check or money order in the envelope provided. The remittance address should show through the envelope window. If you do not have a return envelope with your statement, your payment should be mailed to:

Kansas City, MO 64121-9948
NOTE: Customers who mail their payment in an envelope that they address themselves or those who use a corporate billing system or outside bill paying service must update to the address shown above. This process requires an average of seven (7) to 10 days for mailed payments to reach us and for us to record them in our system. If there's not adequate time for your payment to reach us by mail, please use one of the other payment options listed.
