AL onsite wastewater pumper bonds.
$450. Five minutes.
The Alabama Onsite Wastewater Board requires a licensed pumper to file a $15,000 surety bond as a condition of the license. At our flat 3% that is $450 — well above our $275 minimum, so $450 is what you pay. License bonds like this are the fastest thing we issue.

What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
Alabama licenses septic pumpers through the Onsite Wastewater Board (AOWB), and conditions the license on a $15,000 surety bond. The bond is a public-and-consumer-protection guarantee that you pump, haul, and dispose of onsite sewage in line with the Board's law and rules.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the State of Alabama for the benefit of the public (the obligee). If a pumper violates the Onsite Wastewater law and someone is harmed, the harmed party can recover against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. The bond must stay active for the life of the license, so we track it and notify you ahead of the Board's December 31 renewal deadline to keep your filing continuous.
