The Payroll Department does an awesome job. Even with our small staff it is definitely worth the money to have a trusted company like The Payroll Department handle our payroll. We know we are in good hands!
Rita Simon, Durango Chamber of Commerce
The Payroll Department has taken the worry out of payroll processing. They are current on regulations and rules and we feel confident when submitting reports, taxes, etc. They are very responsive to all of our needs in a timely manner. The web based time clock makes it easy for employees to clock in and out and for us to keep tabs on staffing.

Your service saved my marriage.
Chris Burnett, PolySys, Inc
You guys are worth your weight in gold! I have paid more in penalties to the IRS before using you than three years worth of your services. As long as I have a business I will use you.
Gary Peach, Pura Vida Cafe
The Payroll Dept is a great local company that makes the daunting task of payroll easy, mainly because I do not have to do it! Thanks for being a fun progressive company to work with. I am a big fan.
