Moving in takes connections
Fees abound for telephone, water
By Sandy Johnstone
Of the tntfrild
You're all moved in and just set
tling down to rest when suddenly
you realize there was more to
moving than just putting stuff
away — phone, water, electric,
mail and other services still have
to be connected.
Getting utilities connected is
fairly simple — most services are
just a phone call away.
But first, you have to get the
phone.
The difficult part of getting a
phone is coming up with the $80
minimum deposit required by
Pacific Northwest Bell for those
without previous credit record.
Students can have their parents or
a friend with credit co-sign for the
phone, if the person has good
credit with the phone company.
Private lines have a basic fee of
$13.05 per month. For those who
need to rent a phone, the fee
ranges from $1.17 per month to
$1.71 per month, depending on
the model.
For those who want to avoid the
monthly charge, phones can also
be purchased from the phone
company or from various depart
ment stores.
It will take a couple of days to
get service set up after the order,
plus the co-signed form or
deposits, is placed. The basic
hookup charge is $29, with extra
charges of $27 for the first 15
minutes and $9.75 for each addi
tional 15 minutes if installation is
necessary.
Eugene Water and Electric
Board provides electricity, sewer
and water service to the area.
Monthly utility bills include a $5
customer charge for fixed costs
and is 2.614 per kilowatt hour.
City sewer costs, which appear
on the EWEB bill, are $10.50 per
apartment or house.
Basic water charges are 52.9
cents per 1,000 gallons and most
people average about 9,000
gallons per month, according to
Garry Kunkle, rate manager.
But these rates are liable to
change in the next couple weeks,
Kunkle says. The Bonneville
Power Administration is expected
Craphu by Shawn Bird
to request an increase and when
that increase is made public,
EWEB will have a better idea of
how much to increase its rates,
says Kunkle.
Although EWEB buys about 70
percent to 80 percent of its power
from the BPA, the rate increase
probably will not be as large as the
total increase from the BPA, says
Kunkle.
For those with gas heat, North
west Natural Gas Co. charges
$2.50 per month basic fee plus
about 67 cents per therm. A therm
is the standard unit of gas energy.
The average residential customer
uses about 700 therms per year,
mostly from November to April,
averaging about $40 per month.
Many apartment complexes are
served centrally and so tenants
don't have to worry about connec
tion or installation.
Those who use oil to heat
residences should measure how
much oil is left and call an oil com
pany if it is low. Some companies
will offer a full service and will
monitor oil themselves for the
houses they serve.
Oil rates at Marshall's Oil and
Insulation are about $1.26 per
gallon for stove oil and $1.14 per
gallon for diesel oil for the first
100 gallons, with prices decreas
ing the more oil is purchased. At
least 100 gallons must be purchas
ed in order to have the oil
delivered.
Garbage rates are set by the city,
with A-1 Garbage Service Co. serv
ing most of the University area.
Rates are about $6 per can and the
day it is picked up is determined
according to the address. Billing is ^
done for two months — for the
month before and the month
after.
Apartment dwellers who want
to receive mail must be sure to
put their names on their
mailboxes or their mail will not be
delivered. Names are useful but
not required for houses.
Cable service is available in
most of the Eugene/Springfield
area. The basic charge is $7.95,
with specialty channels added for
additional costs. There is about a
two week wait for service to be
connected.
For readers, the Register-Guard
is delivered daily each morning
for $6 per month. Those living in
Springfield may receive the
Springfield News for $1.75 per
month.
