Property tax help in Trenton

Trenton property taxes are collected by the Division of Tax at City Hall, 319 East State Street, and the Tax Collector also runs the city's annual tax sale. Trenton's FAQ says it accepts partial payments up to the last two days before the sale, but any balance still unpaid on sale day will be sold. The sale can include unpaid Trenton Water Works charges along with property taxes.
