My meter is buried with dirt. How do you read the water meter?
We dig out the box just enough to expose the register, wipe off the register and get the reading. It doesn’t matter if the meter itself is buried.

If you don’t believe your meter is being read, read it yourself and compare the results to the reading on your bill. Be sure to make allowances for any difference between the day you read the water meter and the day it is read by the meter reader.
