• No deposit requirements on new service
• WRAP (Water Rate Assistance Program)
  • Provides a 15% discount on the total water bill for eligible low-income customers.

SJW processes requests for starting, stopping, and transferring your water service. To make a request, fill out the form here: www.sjwater.com/myservice. You’ll receive an email confirmation after we have processed your request.

While monitoring the state and national advisories regarding COVID-19, we have shared with our employees the preventative measures provided by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) on how they can minimize the risk of catching COVID-19. San Jose Water also has robust emergency operations and business continuity plans that include the possibility of a pandemic. We have already and will continue to update them for COVID-19 as necessary to meet our service obligations to our customers and communities.

Please practice social distancing guidelines (staying 6 feet away) when you see SJW employees in the field.
