FAQ · 79225

Common questions

Who is my electric utility in ZIP 79225?

ZIP 79225 (Chillicothe) can be AEP Texas North (competitive) or South Plains EC (non-competitive). Match your bill/ESI ID before shopping REPs.

Who do I call when the power goes out?

Match your bill: AEP Texas North 866-223-8508 or South Plains EC 888-741-0111. Your REP (if any) does not restore wires. Downed line: 911 + provider.

How do I start water service when I move into 79225?

Contact Address-verify — city / WSC / county water (mixed or unconfirmed) at the provider on your bill (top-level phone blank in this packet) or use the city’s published start/portal links. No single verified city water phone for every parcel in this ZIP. Check lease, prior bill, city hall, rural WSC, or TCEQ. Do not assume Uvalde / Del Rio / Eagle Pass / Carrizo Springs / Crystal City / Sabinal / Childress

How does trash and recycling work in Chillicothe?

Trash is address-dependent (city contract vs private hauler). Confirm with city hall, HOA, or landlord. Multifamily often private.

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?

AEP Texas North-wired homes can shop REPs. South Plains EC members generally cannot. Always verify which wires serve the meter.

Does Chillicothe use Dallas 311 or Houston 311?

No. Only parcels inside City of Dallas or City of Houston limits use those 311 systems. Chillicothe and other 788xx/792xx communities use their own utility/city contacts in this packet. Life-threatening emergencies still dial 911.

Which internet providers serve 79225?

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 the co-op?

AEP bills list AEP as TDU with a separate REP. Co-op bills (South Plains EC) have no separate REP. Outage phones: AEP 866-223-8508 vs co-op 888-741-0111.
