Moving in or out? We’ve got you covered.

It’s easy to start, stop, or transfer service on our redesigned website

August is prime time for movers. Whether you’re packing up your college student for her first apartment or downsizing to an empty-nester loft, there’s no need to stress about your electricity service. We’ve got you covered with our mobile-friendly website.  

At pplelectric.com/moving, it’s easier than ever to start, stop, or transfer your electric service. If you’re a new customer, we’ll automatically create an online account for you as part of your start service request. You can also confirm that your new address is in the PPL Electric service territory, check the status of a moving request, and pay a security deposit. If you’re an existing customer, sign in to your online account or create one in three easy steps to stop or transfer service without having to pick up the phone. 

Here’s what you’ll need: 

  • The meter number or address of your new home or apartment 
  • The date you’d like to start or stop service 
  • Basic personal info, like your social security number, to help us confirm your identity 

Decide which of the following requests works best for your family and get moving today. 

  • Start service: You can start service at any address within our territory without stopping service at another property. 
  • Stop service: Moving out of the area? You can simply stop your existing service and we’ll send you a final bill. 
  • Transfer service: Stop service at your existing property and start service at a new home in a few clicks.  

We’ve made the process quick and simple so you can request service when it’s convenient for you – even if that’s in the middle of the night while sorting through boxes of old baby clothes!

      Good Afternoon Candace, Your account will default back to PPL by contacting the Generation Supplier on your account (AEG) to cancel. Once you cancel the supplier, they electronically notify PPL of your cancellation. We then mail a letter to your home confirming the supplier is dropped and your account is returned to PPL. If you are interested in shopping in the future, please read more about safely shopping for suppliers under https://www.pplelectric.com/shopsmart. Thanks for reaching out to us!

    We are moving on August 24th and our new home is being built. We have a work order # for the new home. Can I transfer service to the new address even though it’s not complete or will I have to pay a new customer fee when the service is complete at the new home?

      Good Afternoon Glenn & Pat, Congratulations on your new home. Please call our Job Service Team weekdays 8am-5pm at 1-877-220-6016 with your work order number to have the steps completed to start service in your name. Security deposits are determined by credit scores but sounds unlikely in your case. Thank you!

    I would like written (emailed) confirmation that my service has been stopped as requested. I have already called, but the same person told me two different things during the same phone call & could not provide anything like a confirmation number, so that does not work for me.

    A customer service email address on this website would be VERY helpful. Again, PLEASE reply via email – I won’t be checking this forum again. It was just the best available way I could find to contact support. Thank you.
