Payment Information

Direct Town Office Payment

Check payments can be conveniently dropped off at Town Hall 13 Ayer Rd Harvard, MA 01451 during the hours of 8:00AM–4:30PM or drop box located in front of the building. This box is securely locked and is checked daily by the office staff. 

Town Lockbox Processing via the Mail

Current Town bill payments may be mailed to Town of Harvard-Dept 2700 PO Box 986535 Boston, MA 02298-6535. This is the location of the Town’s Lockbox with our banking partner Leader Bank. 

The payment coupon must be sent with your check for processing. Failure to include the payment coupon with your check will delay the posting of your payment. If your payment is past-due bill, please contact the Treasurer's Office directly regarding payment.

Online Payments through UniPay

For the most convenient, fast, and secure payment, please consider using the Town’s Online payment service through UniPay. It is quick; reduces administrative costs, and ensures that your payment is posted promptly and accurately. (Fee Schedule)

 

Third Party Payment through Online Banking

Some residents prefer to pay their municipal bills by using online systems offered by their personal banks.  The bank will withdraw the funds immediately from your account and issue a physical check to the Town without the payment coupon. Please note, these checks take 5-7 days to reach the Town, which in some cases causes the payment to be past due, incurring interest and fees.

We do not recommend this type of payment because no bill is remitted with the payment.  These checks also cannot be processed by the lockbox facility without the payment coupon and are returned to the Treasurer’s office delaying further credit to your bill please mail bill pay checks: 13 Ayer rd Harvard, MA 01451

When processing payments through a Third-Party Online Portal please include the following below on the check:

The type of bill being paid (real estate, excise, water/sewer, personal property, etc)

The bill number, year, and account number (remember bill numbers change from year to year)

The name and address should be on either the check or the check stub

If we cannot make such determination, we will mail your check back to you and ask that you return it with the appropriate remittance form.                                Note: Items returned due to lack of information may be subject to additional charges and interest.

Water/Sewer Bills: Are paid directly to 13 Ayer Rd Harvard, MA 01451. Contact 978-456-4100 Ext 315 for more information.
