About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the Cairo utility deposit bond does

The City of Cairo runs its own utilities — gas, electric, and water — and, like most municipal utilities, requires a deposit before turning on or holding service for a commercial or higher-usage account. A utility deposit bond lets you satisfy that requirement without locking up cash.

The bond is a payment guarantee to the City: it stands behind your utility account up to the bond amount. If the account goes unpaid and is closed with a balance owing, the City can recover against the bond instead of drawing down a cash deposit it would otherwise hold.

It is not a free pass — if the City collects on the bond, you repay the surety. The advantage is cash flow: you pay a flat 3% premium rather than parking the full deposit with the City. Enter the deposit amount and we issue the bond at a flat 3% with no credit check.

FAQs

Common questions.

If yours isn't here, the bond team can usually answer within the hour.

How much is the Cairo utility deposit bond? +
The premium is a flat 3% of the bond amount, with a $275 minimum. The amount equals the deposit the City of Cairo set for your account — usually based on estimated usage. Enter that figure and the quote updates.
Why post a bond instead of cash? +
It preserves your working capital. Rather than tying up the full deposit with the City, you pay a 3% premium and keep the cash in your business. The City gets the same security up to the bond amount.
Is there a credit check? +
No — this bond is issued with no credit pull. Larger bond amounts may get a quick soft-pull review, which never affects your credit score.
What happens if my account goes unpaid? +
If the account closes with a balance, the City of Cairo can recover that balance against the bond up to the bond amount — and if the surety pays, you repay the surety. Keeping the account current means the bond is never touched.
What amount should I enter? +
Use the deposit figure the City of Cairo set for your account. If you don’t have it yet, ask the City’s utility office and we’ll issue the bond for that exact amount.
