Pay water at 3416 Park Blvd., first floor, during lobby hours.

City Hall warning

Start from the Water Utility page or open the City’s WIPP portal directly: wipp.edmundsassoc.com/Wipp/?wippid=0514. Confirm it is for the City of Wildwood before entering payment details.

The WIPP route may show tax, sewer and water account inquiry. Pay the correct line item and save proof, especially if a closing, special read or delinquency is involved.

Save confirmation and call if urgent

Who Wildwood Water Utility Serves and Which Office to Use

Water service purpose

Wildwood Water Utility provides potable drinking water for consumption and fire protection to residential and commercial users.

Service communities

The City lists service within Wildwood plus North Wildwood, West Wildwood, Wildwood Crest, Diamond Beach, Shawcrest and Rio Grande sections.

Billing can differ

Whether you receive Wildwood Water Utility water service but separate local municipal billing/service rules.
Use Wildwood Water Utility for water-specific questions and your municipality/tax office for local billing where applicable.

Water service from Wildwood Water Utility and local municipal obligations.
Confirm bill issuer before making water/sewer/tax payments.

New Service, Special Reads, Account Cancellation and Development Applications

Residential water service

  • Use residential package for 1-2 unit properties.
  • Prepare property address, owner name and billing address.
  • Include daytime phone and email.
  • Use the correct application for irrigation, fire service or commercial/multifamily service.
  • Call 609-846-0600 if property is outside Wildwood but served by Wildwood Water Utility.

Commercial / multifamily

  • Complete general information and calculation sheet.
  • Provide detailed calculations from project designer when needed.
  • Include unit count, water use, schematic and meter locations.
  • Return application and exhibits to 3416 Park Blvd.
  • Application fee listed on form: $200 non-refundable.
  • Application review period is listed as four weeks.

Cancel / transfer / closing

  • Use account cancellation form if service/account should end.
  • Use special-read contact for closings and settlement timing.
  • Keep buyer/seller, block/lot, address and closing date ready.
  • Do not assume water/sewer/tax charges transfer cleanly without a final read or account review.
  • Check tax-sale risk for prior-year water or sewer charges.

Commercial project shortcut: for commercial, industrial or multi-residential projects, the application says staff and the Water Utility Engineer use the submitted information to determine proper service size. Incomplete calculations, missing schematics or missing meter-location details can slow review.

Check the linked tariff or call billing before publishing a precise gallon example because the page text is condensed.
Leak example, 1/32" at 40 PSI
170 gallons in 24 hours.
Small leak can still add about 15,300 gallons over 90 days.
Leak example, 1/16" at 40 PSI
600 gallons in 24 hours.

Could add about 225,000 gallons over 90 days and strongly affect water/sewer bills.

Rate-publishing note: because the City displays some rate detail in image/text form and links a full tariff PDF, the safest customer advice is to use the table above for fixed-charge orientation, then verify the exact current usage tier on the official tariff or by calling 609-846-0600 before estimating a closing bill, rental bill-back or large commercial charge.

The adjustment is one time for as long as you own the property. A permanent note is placed on the account after credit is granted.
