Goodyear's new utility rates take effect this month to fund water, wastewater, and solid waste services. Customers will see the changes reflected in their February bills, according to the City of Goodyear official website.

The new rates are designed to cover the cost of essential services and prevent sudden increases. Water and wastewater rate changes apply only to city-serviced households, while solid waste rates affect all residents. The average household can expect a bill increase of about $8.50 per month in 2026, according to the city website.

The estimated $8.50 increase is based on a typical household using 7,500 gallons of water and 6,000 gallons of wastewater from the City of Goodyear. Actual bills will vary depending on individual water usage.

Solid waste services are expected to increase by about $1.82 per month in 2026 for residents using city services. Detailed rate information, including rate tables, is available on the Goodyear city website.
