About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the scrap tire bond covers

Georgia regulates scrap tires under the Comprehensive Solid Waste Management Act and O.C.G.A. 12-8-40.1, administered by the Environmental Protection Division (EPD). A carrier that transports scrap tires must hold a permit and post a financial-assurance bond so the state has recourse if the carrier violates the scrap-tire rules.

The amount is set by the EPD director as necessary to ensure compliance, but the statute caps it at $25,000. In practice the division uses tiered amounts: commonly $10,000 for carriers hauling up to 5,000 tires per month and $20,000 for more. A letter of credit can be filed instead of a bond.

If a carrier is responsible for damages — illegal dumping, abandoned tires — a claim can be made up to the full bond, with proceeds going to the state's solid waste trust fund. If the surety pays, you repay the surety. We issue the EPD's amount at a flat 3% with no credit check.

O.C.G.A. 12-8-40.1 (EPD)O.C.G.A. 12-8-40.1 conditions a scrap tire carrier or processor permit on a bond payable to the EPD director, conditioned on compliance with the scrap-tire rules and the permit, in an amount the director determines as necessary but not to exceed $25,000. EPD practice uses tiered amounts (commonly $10,000 up to 5,000 tires/month and $20,000 above). A letter of credit may be filed instead. Confirm your amount on your EPD permit.

What does the bond cover? +
Compliance with the scrap-tire rules and your permit. If you cause damages — illegal dumping, abandoned tires — a claim can be made up to the bond amount, with proceeds going to the solid waste trust fund. If the surety pays, you repay the surety.
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.
