Pricing Simulators

Understanding your 2024/25 GMW Water Accounts

To assist customers in understanding how your fees and charges are changing, GMW has developed a pricing simulator.  

How to use

Please enter information from your 2023/24 Fixed Water Charges account (this account was issued in August 2023) and/or your Consumptive (Variable) Water Charges account issued at the end of the season to calculate how your fees and charges are changing based on your individual circumstances.

What if I don't have a copy of my account?

If you would like a replacement copy of an account that has already been issued, contact your local GMW office or phone 1800 013 357 (Monday to Friday between 8.30am and 4.30pm) and a replacement copy can be provided free of charge.

Alternatively, roll over the help icons in each simulator and they will describe the information you need to enter into the field.

Irrigation Area Customers

Customers who have their water delivered via the Goulburn or Murray channel networks in the Murray Valley, Shepparton, Central Goulburn, Rochester, Loddon Valley, and Torrumbarry Irrigation Areas.

(There is a separate simulator for customers in Tyntynder region).

Disclaimer

The pricing simulator is designed to provide an indicative guide to pricing comparisons between seasons.

While the pricing simulator is designed to give you an indication of prices that will apply to your combination of services, it does not represent or display all the services that GMW offers and cannot be relied upon to provide a definitive cost calculation in each case. Every GMW customer has a different combination of services and therefore individual circumstances will vary and must be taken into account.
