What is Council Tax?
Council Tax is set by Councils (such as Wirral) to help pay for any local service they provide.
There is one bill per home whether it is a house, bungalow, flat, maisonette, caravan or houseboat, and whether it is owned or rented. See Council Tax Booklet in the downloads section.
