The City of Chubbuck conditions a pawnbroker, secondhand, or precious metals dealer license on a fixed $10,000 surety bond. The premium for this bond is set at $100 flat, issued instantly, and there is no credit section on the application.
















Municipal license bonds are the simplest thing in surety. Here is the entire process:
Business details and an effective date. No financials, no credit section.
Small fixed license bonds like this issue right after purchase. At most, 1–2 business days.
Your executed bond arrives by email, ready to file with your Chubbuck pawnbroker / secondhand dealer license. Wet-ink original on request.
A pawnbroker / secondhand dealer bond is a compliance guarantee the City of Chubbuck requires before it licenses a pawn shop, secondhand store, or precious metals dealer. These businesses sit at a sensitive point for stolen-goods recovery, so the City conditions the license on a fixed $10,000 surety bond.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety, and the City of Chubbuck (the obligee). If you violate the City’s pawnbroker / secondhand dealer ordinance — for instance, failing to hold or report property as required — a harmed party can recover against the bond up to $10,000.
The bond must stay active for as long as you hold the license. We track it and send renewal notices 60 and 30 days out so your Chubbuck dealer license never lapses over an expired bond.
These are the actual issuing fields — the application collects no credit information. Most approve instantly; if a check ever runs, it’s a soft pull that won’t touch your score.
