What it is and who needs it.
What the refuse-hauler bond actually guarantees
The Town of Firestone licenses the refuse haulers who collect trash and recycling within the Town, and conditions that license on a $25,000 surety bond. The bond is a compliance-and-protection guarantee: it stands behind your compliance with the Town refuse-collection rules and your dealings with the customers and streets you serve.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Town of Firestone (the obligee), with the residents and the Town as protected parties. If a hauler violates the collection ordinance, damages public property, or otherwise fails its obligations, the Town can recover against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Haulers who run clean routes and follow the Town rules treat the bond as a license formality, not a risk.

Claims, renewal, filing, and what sets the price.
If a claim is made
A claim comes from the party the bond protects, the obligee named on the form, when the duty the bond guarantees is not met.
The surety investigates and pays a valid claim, up to the $25,000 bond amount. You then repay the surety: a surety bond is a guarantee of your performance, not insurance for you.
Renewal and term
The premium covers a one-year term from the effective date you choose; a longer term is the same price per year, chosen at checkout.
Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.
