Applying for Services in the Town of Pikeville

  1. Before coming to Town Hall, please call to determine if you fall in our service area. Some areas have a Pikeville address; however, we only provide utilities for residents that are in our Town limits.
  2. If you do fall in our utilities jurisdiction, you may download the forms and fill them out at home or come to Town Hall to fill them out. Our application lists all the requirements needed but they are also listed below.
    1. In order to complete your file we need the following items: State-Issued ID, Driver License, deposit in the amount of $200 (home owner) or $400 (renter), deed to home, or rental agreement. We will make a copy of all of this to keep on file.
    2. Deposits are ONLY accepted in the form of money order or check.
  3. Once we have everything on file, a Turn-On will be submitted for the day you would like your utilities on.
  4. Your first bill will typically be higher. We do not enter new residents that apply for services into our billing software until after the 20th of the month due to our billing software. You may have up to a month and a half on your first bill. Please discuss this with the Deputy Town Clerk for more information.
