Trouble paying your rates?

Payment Plans

If you are finding it difficult to pay your rates to Murrumbidgee Council, you can arrange a payment plan. This allows you more time to settle your debt. During this agreed period, we will stop charging interest and halt any recovery actions.

Please contact us for a private and confidential discussion. You can call us on 1300 676 243.
