6 Reasons to Switch Today

Why Switching to Paperless Billing Just Makes Sense

In many households, paper bills are still part of the monthly routine. They arrive in the mail, get opened and often end up stacked on a counter or tucked into a drawer to be paid later on. While paper billing may feel familiar, switching to paperless billing is a simple change that offers real benefits for your home, your security and the environment. Here are six reasons why more customers are choosing to go paperless:

1. Less Paper Means Less Waste (and Less Clutter)

Paper bills don’t just appear out of nowhere. They require trees, water, energy, printing and transportation to arrive in your mailbox. By switching to paperless billing, you help reduce paper use and cut down on unnecessary waste.

Beyond the environmental impact, going paperless also helps keep your home more organized. No more envelopes piling up, no more sorting or shredding old bills, and no more wondering where you put last month’s statement. Everything is stored securely online, available when needed.

Fewer papers. Fewer piles. Less clutter.

2. It’s A Safer Way to Manage Your Personal Information

Paper bills often contain sensitive information, including your name, address and account details. Unfortunately, mail theft and misplaced mail can put that information at risk. Paperless billing reduces the amount of personal information traveling through the mail. Instead, your bill is delivered securely through your online account, where you are the only one with access. It’s a smart step toward protecting your identity and keeping your information private.

Less mail means less risk.

3. No Mail Delays, No Missed Bills

Mail can sometimes be unpredictable. Bills can be delayed by weather (anyone remember the 20″ of snow we got last week?), vacations, or simple mix‑ups, which can lead to missed due dates or unnecessary stress.

With paperless billing, your bill is available as soon as it’s ready. Many customers choose to receive email notifications or account alerts, so they always know when a new statement is available. Your bill arrives on time, every time.

4. Avoid Late Fees with Automatic Payments

Late fees are often unintentional. It’s easy for a bill gets overlooked or get buried under other mail. Paperless billing makes it easy to pair online statements with automatic payments, so your bill is paid on time without another thought. Simply choose the payment method. Once it’s set up, you don’t have to worry about missing a due date again.

One time set up equals peace of mind every month.

5. No Postage Required, No Extra Trips

Paper billing often means stamps and trips to the mailbox, post office or our dropbox. Paperless billing eliminates all of the added expenses. There’s no postage to buy, no checks to write and no errands to run. It’s a small convenience that adds up over time, saving you time while also reducing transportation‑related emissions.

Simpler for you, better for the planet.

6. Easy Access Available 24/7

With paperless billing, your current and past bills are always available online. Whether you’re checking a recent charge, planning your budget or looking up a past statement, everything is just a few clicks away. No filing cabinets. No searching through old paperwork. Just easy, on‑demand access whenever you need it.

Making the Switch Is Easy

Switching to paperless billing is quick and straightforward:

  1. Log into your account (If logging in for the first time, you’ll need to set up your account)
  2. Under Settings, select “Web bill only”
  3. That’s it! Though you can find even more convenience by also setting up automatic payments.

If you ever need help, customer support is available to walk you through the process.
