From Butler Township Tax Collector. 

The last day to pay property taxes issued in 2025 is 12/31/25. 

Please remember that Personal and Business checks are not accepted after 12/15/25. You must pay with either a money order or a cashiers bank check. 

In addition, you cannot add tax bills together. Each tax bill requires its own funds. 

If you’ve made a payment please make sure your check has cleared your checking account. 

If you are mailing a payment at the end of the year, please remember that the envelope must be postmarked by 12/31/2025. I cannot accept a payment postmarked in January. Mail is NOT picked up at 5PM anymore so mailing it in an outside box will cause it to have a postmark after the end of the year. You must take it inside and ask them to postmark it by 12/31/25. 

My hours for the remainder of the year are as follows. 

Collection Tuesday Dec 23rd 3pm to 6pm

Closed 12/24 thru 12/28/25 for Christmas.

Collection Tuesday 12/30 3pm to 6pm

Collection Wednesday 12/31 4pm to 6pm. This is the last day to make payment. 

If you have any questions or issues, please contact me via email at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. or by phone at 

570-579-7892, the best time to reach me is between 5PM and 8PM. 

Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas!
