Two Different Offices Handle Your Property Tax in Hartley County

The office that decides what your property is worth sits in the town of Hartley: the Hartley County Appraisal District. They set your value, and they also take exemption applications, including the general homestead exemption. You can reach them at (806) 365-4515 or at hartleycad.org.

Tax collection is a different desk in a different town. The Tax Assessor-Collector works out of Channing, the county seat, and that's also where you handle vehicle registration and the rest of the county's tax business. So a question about your appraised value or an exemption goes to Hartley; a question about paying the bill itself goes to Channing.

When you're not sure which one to call, start with the appraisal district. They can usually point you the rest of the way. Both offices, with their current addresses and phone numbers, are listed in the Comptroller's county tax directory.
