What it is and who needs it.
What the Bridgeport waste hauler bond covers
A waste hauler bond is a guarantee to the City of Bridgeport that you will collect, transport, and dispose of refuse and recyclables in compliance with the City’s ordinances and the conditions of your license.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Bridgeport (the obligee), with residents protected. If you violate the hauling rules or leave fees or cleanup unaddressed, the City can recover against the bond.
The bond amount is set by the City — confirm the figure on your license application. The premium runs 0.5% of that amount, $100 minimum — no credit check up to $100,000, and most applications approve instantly, ready to file.

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 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.
Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.
How to file it
File with the City of Bridgeport. Submit the executed bond with your waste hauler license application. Wet-ink originals mailed if the City insists.
What sets the price
The premium is 0.5% of the bond amount, $100 minimum: the amount the obligee sets moves the price, not your business profile.
No credit check up to $100,000. Above that, the carrier may run a soft pull, which never affects your score.
Where a check runs, it decides approval; the rate is the same for everyone approved.
