Homewood peddler bonds.
$275 flat. Five minutes.
The City of Homewood requires peddlers and itinerant dealers to post a $5,000 bond before selling door-to-door or as a transient vendor in the city. Three percent of $5,000 is under our minimum, so the price is the $275 minimum premium — the same for everyone, with no credit check on this one.

What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
The City of Homewood licenses peddlers and itinerant (transient) dealers and conditions that license on a $5,000 surety bond. The bond is a consumer-protection guarantee: it stands behind your honest dealing with Homewood customers and your compliance with the City's peddler/transient-vendor rules.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Homewood (the obligee), with your customers protected. If you take a customer's money and fail to deliver, or otherwise violate the City's vendor rules, the harmed customer can recover against the bond up to $5,000.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Vendors who deal honestly treat the bond as a license formality.
