Beware of Utility Worker Imposters. We would like to remind our customers to be aware of individuals impersonating utility workers. If someone comes to your home claiming to be with the gas or water company, be sure to ask to see their M.U.D. ID badge. Click here for more safety tips.

Round Up and Help Out. Did you know rounding up your monthly utility bill can help others in need? Simply write “round up” on the front of your bill payment stub, or fill out the contact form at mudomaha.com/contact and select “Donate to Utility Assistance” to enroll in the round-up option. M.U.D.’s Home Fund provides bill assistance to those in need, and 100% of funds go directly into our community to help others. We challenge our customers who are able to round up their bill or make a donation to help their neighbors and friends. Visit mudomaha.com/homefund.

Preparing for Winter. As colder weather begins to arrive, we encourage customers to conserve energy to prepare for higher heating bills. One way to avoid bill fluctuations is to join the Budget Payment Plan, which allows you to pay the same bill amount every month. Lowering your thermostat during the winter and reducing air leaks in your home may result in cost savings. For more tips to prepare and save, click here.
