Setting Up Utilities, Services

<< Back
You are responsible for transferring utilities into your own name effective the first day of the lease or on the date of move-in, whichever is sooner. If a service requires in-home installation such as cable TV, you must be home to meet the service technician. MVC staff will not be able to assist you by letting service personnel into your apartment. All installation charges and monthly fees for utilities and services are the responsibility of the resident. For your convenience, frequently used service providers are listed below.
