Fees and
Charges
As a non-profit,
locally owned cooperative, Tallahatchie Valley
works to keep your rates and other fees
associated with electric service as low as
possible. Tallahatchie Valley’s service fees
are based on our costs and are charged so that
members not requiring these special services
will not have to share in the expenses.
Membership Fee -
$20 -
Each
individual or business that requests electric service must become a
member of the cooperative. Upon termination of service, the
membership fee is applied to the final bill or refunded.
Service Charge
- $30 -
Each time a meter is turned on,
Tallahatchie Valley’s service personnel must go to that site. This
charge helps to cover that expense.
Residential Deposit
- Variable -
All residential accounts are required to
pay a deposit, which earns interest and is refunded upon termination
of the service. Determined by credit check.
Commercial Account Deposit
- Variable -
Commercial account deposits are set by
Tallahatchie Valley on an individual basis based on probable use.
Transformer Set Fee

Tallahatchie Valley is required to set a transformer for a temporary
service, a $30.00 fee is charged.
Extension Fee

bill on the due date.
Collection Fee

when Tallahatchie Valley EPA personnel must visit a member residence

non-payment and reconnection is made during regular office hours.
After-Hours Reconnection Fee

non-payment and reconnection is made after regular office hours.
Returned Check Fee

first-time charge that will be paid by any member-owner whose meter
indicates signs of tampering. If there are subsequent instances the
fees are higher.
