Unwelcome Mail: Tax Bills Sent Out In West Hartford

WEST HARTFORD, Conn. — The Town of West Hartford mailed tax bills Monday for the first installment of real estate, personal property and motor vehicle taxes on the Oct. 1, 2025 Grand List.

The first installment is due July 1, 2026, according to the town.

Residents can pay online through the town’s tax payment portal, by mail using the envelope included with the bill, or by sending payment to the Town of West Hartford, 50 S. Main St., Room 109, West Hartford, CT 06107.

Payments also may be deposited in the secure West Hartford Town Hall drop box located on the building’s south-facing brick façade near the main entrance.

In-person payments are accepted at the Revenue Collection Center in Room 109 of Town Hall during regular business hours, Monday through Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

The West Hartford Revenue Collection Center will be closed June 19 and July 3.

Tax bills not paid by Aug. 3, 2026, will become delinquent and subject to interest of 1.5% per month, or a fraction of a month, retroactive to July 1.

The town said the August interest charge will total 3%, reflecting 1.5% for July and 1.5% for August. The minimum interest charge is $2.

Town officials noted that failure to receive a tax bill does not invalidate the tax obligation or any accrued interest charges.

Residents who do not receive a bill are encouraged to contact the West Hartford Revenue Collection Office at 860-561-7474, ext. 4, or search for their bill through the town’s tax office website.
