Sign-Up For Service
Getting Connected
By connecting with Umatilla Electric Cooperative, you become a voting member-owner of the cooperative. Every UEC Member has an equal voice in the business. Cooperatives are truly democracies in action.
To receive electricity from Umatilla Electric, you need to successfully submit an Application for Electric Service to our office. A membership fee of $5.00 is required. Once your application has been processed, you are a member with full rights and privileges. For residential accounts, a $250 deposit is required for new service. However, the deposit can be waived if you provide a letter of credit from a previous utility, showing a good payment record for the past 12 months. UEC customer service representatives will be happy to work with you on this procedure. You may wish to have a person who has established credit with the cooperative to co-sign for you when you establish new service. It is helpful to provide any kind of additional information, such as your apartment number or electric meter number, that will help locate and verify your address during the sign-up process. If you rent, we will need to know the property owner or landlord's name.
If you are looking to add a new service, we recommend you come to our office or call and talk with our Engineering department. This will guarantee that we get the information needed to do the proper work and make sure we understand the type of service you require.
