Mail
Property tax and vehicle renewal payments can be made by check or money order. DO NOT SEND CASH by mail.

Make payable to:             Peggy Weitl, Carroll County Treasurer

Mail payment to:             Carroll County Treasurer

P.O. Box 68
Carroll, IA 51401

Check
Do not postdate your check. If your check is returned to you for non-sufficient funds, you will be charged a $30.00 service charge.

Money order
The Treasurer's Office accepts money orders as payment.

If you choose to mail your payment, please mail it early. Also, be sure to affix the correct amount of postage on the envelope--including extra postage for oversized and/or heavy envelopes. We cannot accept mail that has postage due. Mailed payments must have a U.S. Postal Service postmark dated on or before the due date to avoid a late interest.

The U.S. Postal Service postmark is the only date recognized for date of mailing. We do not accept the date written on your check or a business metered date as proof of the mailing date. Before mailing your payment, check with your local post office to make sure the postmark date will be prior to the interest and/or penalty date. If you want to be sure that your payment has a postmark before the interest and/or penalty date, have the post office postmark the envelope in your presence.

Credit Card

Property tax payers are able to pay their property taxes on-line with a credit card (Discover, MasterCard, Visa, or E-Check.)  Through a special arrangement made available by the Iowa State Treasurer's Association, this service is available to counties at no charge. You may also use this site to obtain forms, etc.  Payment by credit card will not be available at the counter due to the processing cost issues associated with credit card payments.  Credit card payments will only be accepted by using the following link:
