- Mail: Checks or money orders may be mailed to the Thurston County Treasurer at the address below. Payments must be postmarked by April 30, 2026. The U.S. Postal Service no longer guarantees same-day postmark. Please mail your payment early.
- Drop Off: Payments may be dropped in the green drop box located near the flag poles outside the Thurston County Atrium building at the address below.
- In Person: Payments may be made in person at the Treasurer’s Office during business hours at the address below. The same credit/debit card fees apply as with online payments.
