What it is and who needs it.
What the relocation bond actually guarantees
Athens-Clarke County is a consolidated city-county government. When a house or other structure is hauled over its public streets, it can damage pavement, curbs, traffic signals, and overhead utilities. The county requires a relocation bond before issuing a moving permit so there is a financial backstop for that damage.
It is a three-party arrangement: you or the house-mover (the principal), the surety carrier, and Athens-Clarke County (the obligee). If the move damages county property or the right-of-way and it is not repaired, the county can recover against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Movers who plan their route, raise the lines they need to, and restore the road treat the bond as a permit formality. We issue the amount the county set, at a flat 3% with no credit check.
