- Tolls By Mail Website: This website is your one-stop shop for all things toll-related. You can search for tolls by license plate, pay a bill you already received, or even pre-pay tolls for an upcoming trip. Basically, it's like having a psychic tollbooth genie granting your online payment wishes! [Tolls by Mail New York]

Cash is King (or Queen, Depending on Your Preference)
Believe it or not, you can still be old-school and pay with cash. If you miss the satisfying clink of coins, head over to a participating convenience store and look for the Tolls By Mail kiosk.
