About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the utility deposit bond actually covers

The Cobb County Water System provides water and sewer service across Cobb County, and asks commercial and certain new customers for a security deposit before connecting service. The deposit covers unpaid bills if an account closes with a balance owed.

A utility deposit surety bond is an accepted substitute for that cash deposit. Rather than leaving the full amount with the county, you post a bond — the Water System (the obligee) can recover against it for unpaid charges, and you pay only the premium.

If the Water System draws on the bond for unpaid charges, you repay the surety — it is a guarantee, not insurance for you. Accounts that stay current never trigger a claim, and keep their working capital free instead of parked as a deposit.

Cobb County Water SystemThe Cobb County Water System provides water and sewer utility service and sets deposit requirements for new and commercial accounts.
