To initiate services with Klickitat PUD, you may call or visit our Goldendale or White Salmon Office. KPUD requires full name, Social Security numbers (or equivalent), and dates of birth for all responsible individuals. This information will be used to validate identity and creditworthiness through a third-party processor.
If a deposit is required, new customers must pay at least half upfront before service transfer, with the remaining balance included in the first bill. Deposit amounts are based on the two highest bills from the previous two years, with a minimum deposit of $150.
To avoid the deposit, a co-signer (an existing KPUD customer with at least two years of good payment history) can guarantee payment. The co-signer must sign and notarize a form committing to the new customers bills until they have 12 consecutive months of on-time payments.
