Pay a Broward Water Bill or Fix a WWS Account Issue the Correct Way
Broward County water bill searches can be confusing because not every address in Broward County is billed by the same utility. This guide is for customers whose bill says Broward County Water and Wastewater Services or WWS.
Use it to pay through AccessBROWARD, contact customer service, set up Auto Pay, start or stop service, check a high bill, review water quality updates, and avoid misleading water testing solicitations.

High Broward Water Bill Checklist
In Broward County, high water use is often connected to outdoor irrigation, leaks, pool filling, toilet leaks, broken sprinkler heads, water softeners, or seasonal household changes. Broward WWS also promotes a free irrigation evaluation for eligible WWS customers through Broward’s NatureScape Irrigation Service.
Before you call WWS, gather this
- Account number and service address.
- Current bill and prior bill.
- Dates when usage changed.
- Photos of broken irrigation, leaks or repairs.
- Plumber, irrigation or pool repair receipts if available.
- Notes about pool refill, new landscaping, guests or sprinkler changes.
Water Quality, Lead Inventory, PFAS and Testing Flyer Warnings
Broward WWS provides several water-quality resources that add real value for customers beyond bill payment. These include annual water quality reports, lead information, service line inventory, PFAS information, free chlorination notices and alerts about misleading water-quality testing flyers.
Broward County Water Service Areas and City Utility Confusion
A common Broward billing mistake is paying the wrong utility because the county name appears in search results. Broward County WWS serves certain areas, but many cities in Broward County operate their own billing or customer-service systems.
