New Resident Info
This page provides an overview of information for new residents of the Village of Hainesville. Greater detail on each of these topics is located at the linked pages. Please note that townhome associations handle the water and garbage for townhome residents as part of their monthly assessment dues. If you have any questions, please call your townhome association directly.
Utilities Information
Water and sewer accounts for single-family homes are established at the Village Hall. If you are a new resident in a single-family home, we will need to have a copy of your driver’s license and a copy of a portion of your closing papers with your name and Hainesville address for verification. Please visit the Water & Utilities page for details.
Utility bills are sent via email and are due on the 10th of the month. If you haven’t already, please fill out and submit the attached E-Billing Authorization Agreement on the Water & Utilities page of this website.
Garbage Pickup
Garbage pick-up is on Fridays. Please have your containers at the curb by 6:30 am on Friday. Garbage/Recycling bins may not be stored in front of the home. Observance of some holidays may cause a delay in garbage pickup. The garbage schedule is available on the Village calendar.
