To ensure your bagging is completed on a timely basis, all request must be received by 4:00 p.m. of the business day preceding your meter bagging requested start date.
 

Meter Bagging Procedures

Please follow the steps outlined below as far in advance as possible:

  1. Complete a Metered Bagging Request Form online with the information gathered in steps 2-5 prior to the meter bagging.

    Note: You can also print the Meter Bagging Request Form (pdf) with the information gathered in steps 2-5 prior to any meter baggings.  This form is also available at the PARC office.

  2. Collect the meter numbers (located on the front head of the meter, for example, MA-401 is the meter number for Main, meter #401) that you are requesting to be bagged. If you have any problems finding the meter number, contact the PARC office at 502-574-3817.
  3. Contact Public Works (502-574-3121) to determine if you do or do not need a Public Works permit for the meters that you need to be bagged. This is imperative to ensure adherence to metro government policies and procedures.
  4. Contact the PARC office (502-574-3817) to get a price quote on meter bagging or to tentatively schedule a meter bagging. Meter bagging fees are listed below on our Meter Bagging Rate Chart and Map.
