FAQ · 78852
Common questions
Who is my electric utility in ZIP 78852?
AEP Texas Central is typically the TDU in Eagle Pass / 78852. You pick a REP for the energy plan. Compare at PowerToChoose.org or WattKarma. Rural edges may touch Rio Grande EC (800-749-1509) or Medina EC (866-632-3532)—verify ESI ID.
Who do I call when the power goes out?
Call AEP Texas at 866-223-8508 (24/7) or use aeptexas.com outage tools. Your REP does not restore wires. Downed line: 911 and AEP.
How do I start water service when I move into 78852?
Contact City of Eagle Pass Water Works System at 830-773-2351 or use the city’s published start/portal links. Eagle Pass Water Works 830-773-2351 at 2107 N Veterans Blvd; emergencies 830-773-3813. Online pay eaglepasswwtx.municipalonlinepayments.com. Confirm city limits vs Maverick County / RGEC rural / El Indio. Electric is AEP
How does trash and recycling work in Eagle Pass?
Eagle Pass trash—confirm with city / Water Works coordination 830-773-2351. Outside city: address-verify.
Who provides natural gas, and what if I smell gas?
Piped gas is not confirmed for every address here—propane is common. Uvalde and Del Rio have municipal gas inside those cities only. Suspected leak: leave, then 911 (do not invent an LDC).
Is electricity regulated or competitive here?
Most AEP Texas Central–wired homes in this ZIP can shop competitive REPs. Co-op pockets (Rio Grande EC / Medina EC / Bandera EC) cannot. Confirm ESI ID.
Does Eagle Pass use Dallas 311 or Houston 311?
No. Only parcels inside City of Dallas or City of Houston limits use those 311 systems. Eagle Pass and other 788xx/792xx communities use their own utility/city contacts in this packet. Life-threatening emergencies still dial 911.
Which internet providers serve 78852?
Common options may include AT&T, Spectrum, Optimum/Suddenlink, Frontier, and local WISP/co-op broadband; availability thins in rural Uvalde/Del Rio/Maverick and Panhandle-fringe counties. Use each provider’s checker with your full street address. This packet does not guarantee service.
How do I tell AEP from a co-op?
AEP bills list AEP Texas as TDU plus a separate REP name. Co-op bills (RGEC/Medina/Bandera) have no separate REP. Outage phones differ: AEP 866-223-8508 vs RGEC 800-749-1509 / Medina 866-632-3532 / Bandera 866-226-3372.
