Broward County WWS Bill Help for Payments, Service Starts, Past-Due Accounts and High Usage

Use this guide if your bill says Broward County Water and Wastewater Services. It explains how to pay online through AccessBROWARD, pay by phone, pay cash at Amscot, visit the Pompano Beach or Lauderhill customer service centers, start service, restore service, check rates and handle a high water bill.

Broward County has many city utilities, so the first step is provider confirmation. If your bill shows Fort Lauderdale, Hollywood, Miramar, Pembroke Pines, Coral Springs or another city utility, use that city’s water billing system instead of Broward WWS.

Fast answer: Broward County WWS customers can pay online by signing into AccessBROWARD and linking the WWS account, pay by phone at 954-831-3250, pay cash at any Amscot location, or pay at the WWS customer service centers in Pompano Beach or Lauderhill. Customer Service is available at 954-831-3250, and the number also provides 24-hour account status information.

First-time online payment: Broward says you must create an AccessBROWARD account and link the WWS account you want to pay. Online payments can be made by electronic check or credit card, and credit card information is not stored, so you need to access the account each month unless you arrange automatic payment from checking or savings.

High Broward County WWS Bill? Check Irrigation, Leaks and Rate Tiers

Broward WWS notes that over half of water used at home may go to outdoor irrigation, and WWS customers can request a free irrigation evaluation through NatureScape Irrigation Service.

  • Running toilet or weak flapper seal.
  • Faucet, tub, shower or laundry leak.
  • Water heater leak.
  • Pool auto-fill or filter backwash issue.

🌴

High-bill call script

“My Broward County WWS bill is higher than normal. I checked toilets, irrigation, leaks and prior usage. Can you help me identify which usage period or bill line caused the increase, and whether a leak adjustment, pool credit, toilet credit or irrigation evaluation applies?”
