Las Cruces officials have announced a brief hiatus in the City's Cashiering Program. They'll be pausing public access from the morning hours of 8 a.m. until noon on Thursday, April 10, to engage staff in some designated training, as detailed by the City of Las Cruces. Transactions won't be processed during this window, leaving residents to seek payment alternatives.
Despite the inconvenience, the city hasn't left its residents high and dry. Utility customers can lean on a few different methods to keep their accounts current, even when the cashier desks are unstaffed, after hours they can drop checks or money orders in the payment box situated conveniently between City Hall and the Thomas Branigan Memorial Library and they can utilize the Pay-by-Phone system, which is operational around the clock by calling (575) 541-2111 and pressing 4, allowing for e-check, Visa, MasterCard, and Discover transactions. For online payments, the options extend to using UtilityHawk or PaymentUS platforms, seamlessly from wherever web access is available.
The steps for remote payment include several digital and physical alternatives to ensure continuity and avoid service interruptions. For those preferring the tactile approach to settling bills, Walmart stores in Las Cruces are ready to process cash payments for utility bills, but bear in mind there's an extra dollar service fee attached. And for anyone looking for a one-off solution, the PaymentUS portal offers an online destination for single transactions.
