City of Coquitlam ensures access to services despite postal disruptions.
There are plenty of convenient ways to connect online with the City of Coquitlam during the Canadian Union of Postal Workers nation-wide strike, which began on September 25, 2025.
Coquitlam is committed to making sure you can still access the services you need while mail delivery is disrupted. From paying bills to applying for permits, reporting issues and more, our online tools are always here to help keep things running smoothly.
The postal strike may result in delays receiving dog license renewal and business license notices, metered utility bills or other important documents, and penalties or daily interest may apply to unpaid balances and fees. Consider other ways to pay such as using a secure drop-box (two locations at City Hall), in-person at City Hall or online.
City of Coquitlam utility, property tax, and dog license accounts can be accessed through myCoquitlam, a secure service that provides online access to account information. The service is easy to use and available 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
Additional information for residents can be accessed through the Online Services web page at coquitlam.ca/eServices.
Businesses with outstanding balances owing can visit coquitlam.ca/BusinessLicences and click on ‘Business Licence online’ to enter their business licence number and make payments. If you do not receive your renewal notice, contact business licensing staff by email at businesslicences@coquitlam.ca.

We acknowledge with gratitude and respect that the name Coquitlam was derived from the hən̓q̓əmin̓əm̓ (HUN-kuh-MEE-num) word kʷikʷəƛ̓əm (kwee-KWET-lum) meaning ‘Red Fish Up the River’. The City is honored to be located on the kʷikʷəƛ̓əm traditional and ancestral lands, including those parts that were historically shared with the q̓ic̓əy̓ (kat-zee), and other Coast Salish Peoples.
