Start Service Form

Any Customer whose premises may be served from suitable existing HMLP distribution lines without installing an intermediate pole can obtain electric service by completing the Start Service form below. Customers establishing water service with the Weir River Water System (WRWS) may also use this form.

Any outstanding balance(s) on your existing electric and/or water account must be paid in full before service can be established at the new location. 

All renters in Hingham are required to pay a security deposit before electrical service is initiated.  Once we receive your application, we will respond by email with the deposit amount and payment instructions. 

If you are having trouble completing the form online, please call our office at 781-749-0134 and we will assist you.

Attention Renters

HMLP requires all renters to pay a security deposit equal to 3X the highest bill in the prior 12-month period. Once we receive your application, we will email you the amount of your security deposit. The deposit must be received before service can be started in your name.

Interest at the current State Statute (M.G.L. ch. 164, Section 58A) prescribed rate will be paid on such deposit. The deposit is held until service is terminated. At that time, the final bill will be deducted from the deposit, and you will be billed/refunded for the remainder.

Do you qualify for fuel assistance or a means-tested benefits program? (Electric Service Only)
Please select 'yes' if you would like to be considered for HMLP's income-adjusted rate, which provides a discount on certain parts of the electric bill to qualifying residents. To qualify, you must be a residential customer participating in a means-tested benefits program. Please review all of the program requirements at www.hmlp.com/assistance. If you do not participate in a means-tested benefits program, but are interested in payment assistance, please call HMLP at 781-749-0134 to learn about other available options.
