About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the Pike County logging bond covers

Pike County requires logging and pulpwood operators that move timber over the county roads to post a fixed $2,500 surety bond before they begin. Loaded log trucks are hard on rural roads, so the bond is a road-restoration guarantee: it stands behind your obligation to repair the damage your hauling causes.

It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and Pike County (the obligee). If a logging operation tears up a county road and does not repair it, the county can recover against the bond up to the $2,500 penal sum to make the repairs.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays the county, you repay the surety. Operators who notify the county, follow the haul routes, and fix what they damage treat the bond as a routine cost of doing business. We issue the fixed $2,500 bond at $275, with no credit check.

Pike County logging & pulpwood operationsPike County, Georgia requires a $2,500 surety bond as a condition of logging and pulpwood operations that use the county roads; the bond amount and terms are set by Pike County (Public Works / road department) under its timber-harvesting / road-damage ordinance.
