The City does not provide water, sewer, electricity, gas, cable, internet or telephone service. For more information regarding these services please contact the following companies.

Gas and Electric

Xcel Energy and CORE Electric Cooperative (Formerly IREA) provide gas and electricity utilities to the area.

Trash Pick-Up and Recycling

Trash and recycling services are provided by private companies in the City of Centennial, with each provider operating on their own pick up schedule. Some HOAs throughout the City have contracted with one trash provider in an effort to receive favorable rates and reduce truck traffic in neighborhoods. If you are interested in organizing one trash provider for your neighborhood, look at the Neighborhood Trash Collection Toolkit(PDF, 361KB) for insight into the process, a survey for neighbors and tips for creating proposals for potential vendors.

Denver Water Lead Reduction Program

Centennial gets much of it’s water through Denver Water distributors.

Although the water that Denver Water provides to customers is lead-free, lead can enter the water as it moves through lead-containing household fixtures, plumbing and water service lines owned by the customer. Denver Water’s Lead Reduction Program, which was approved by the EPA and CDPHE in late 2019, officially launched in spring 2020.
