Most Wyo Stays tenants are fully set up in one short session."

Reach out to our Renter Support team at 737-377-1570 first; we'll confirm your status and time the utility setup to your actual move-in date."

# Set Up Your Sheridan Utilities — Done in Minutes

Electric, gas, water, internet — every provider for your new address, in one place. No phone trees. No guesswork. Just the keys, the coffee, and a home that's already running when you walk in.

[Start Utility Setup →](https://utility-setup.com/wyo-stays)

Free for every Wyo Stays tenant · Live support if you need it

## Moving In Should Feel Like an Arrival, Not a To-Do List

There's a particular kind of tired that comes with a move — boxes everywhere, the truck due back by five, and somewhere on a sticky note, the words _"call the power company."_ We'd rather you spend that energy figuring out which window gets the morning light.

So we built move-in around one simple page. Enter your new Sheridan address and you'll see every utility option that actually serves your home — electric, natural gas, water, trash, and internet — with the steps to turn each one on. Confirm as you go. By the time the truck pulls away, the lights are on and the Wi-Fi's working. That's the whole idea.

## Three Steps. About Fifteen Minutes.

01 

### Tell us your address

Open your Wyo Stays setup portal and enter your new Sheridan County address. We'll pull up every provider that actually services your street — not a generic list.

02 

### Turn on each utility

Electric, gas, water, and internet, each with a clear path to activation. Set them up, then confirm — so nothing slips through the cracks before move-in day.

## What Powers a Home in Sheridan County

Sheridan isn't a one-company town when it comes to utilities — what serves your home depends on where in the county you land. Here's the lay of the land. For the exact providers mapped to your specific address, your setup portal is the source of truth.

### Electricity

Most homes inside Sheridan city limits are powered by Montana-Dakota Utilities (MDU). Out in the county and rural Bighorn foothills, that's often Powder River Energy Corporation (PRECorp), a local cooperative. Electric can take a few business days to activate, so it's the first one to set up.

### Natural Gas

Natural gas across the Sheridan area is delivered by Montana-Dakota Utilities (MDU). If your rental heats with gas, you'll want this connected before the first cold snap rolls down off the mountains.

### Water, Sewer & Trash

Water, sewer, refuse, and recycling for in-city homes run through the City of Sheridan Utilities Department (307-674-6483), supplied by Sheridan Area Water Supply. A handful of county districts bill separately — your portal will tell you which applies to your address.

### Internet

Sheridan has real choice on internet — cable, fiber, and fixed-wireless options vary block to block, with local and national providers in the mix. Set this one up last, since some plans need an install visit. Compare the plans available at your address right in the portal.

Not sure which providers reach your exact street? That's exactly what the portal solves — every option, verified to your address.
