For your convenience after hours, a drop box is located behind the Tax Office with the entrance off of Charlotte Avenue. The silver box with the black lettering is marked "UNION COUNTY". Payments deposited in the drop box will be posted on the next business day. You may also mail payments to the following address:

For proper credit please include your account number.

Union County also offers an automatic bank draft plan for customers that have a checking account with a financial institution that is a member of the Automated Clearing House Association. Under this plan your checking account will automatically be drafted each month for the net amount of your utility bill. Each month you will receive your bill with a printed message that states your bank account will be drafted on the due date.

The draft will occur on the bill due date. If the date is on a weekend or holiday, then the draft will occur on the last business workday prior to your due date.

If you are interested in participating in this program, please download the Draft Authorization Form and complete it according to the instructions. Remember to attach a voided check to the form and return to Union County Public Works at 500 North Main Street, Suite 500, Monroe NC 28112.
