Instead of tying up cash, you can post a surety bond in lieu of the deposit the City of Cairo requires to start or hold utility service. The City sets the deposit amount; we issue the bond at a flat 3% with no credit check, so your working capital stays in the business.
















No underwriting queue for the standard utility deposit bond — enter your amount, pay, and file with the City. Here is the whole thing:
Your business details, the deposit amount the City required, and the effective date — that is the entire application.
No credit check and no waiting — the executed bond is generated as soon as you pay. Larger amounts may get a quick review.
Submit the executed bond to the City of Cairo utility department in place of your cash deposit. Wet-ink originals mailed on request.
Bond amount × 3% = your premium, one-time, $275 minimum. Enter the deposit the City of Cairo set and the premium updates.
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.
Submit the application with the deposit amount the City of Cairo set — the executed bond is generated instantly, ready to file with the utility department.
