What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
A house mover bond is a public-property guarantee. Moving a house through Anamosa means routing an oversized load over City streets, curbs, signs, and overhead lines — the City wants a financial backstop that any damage along the route gets repaired.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Anamosa (the obligee). If your move damages streets, traffic signals, or other public property, the City can recover the repair cost against the bond.
The bond must stay active for the term of your permit. Let it lapse and the City can pull your mover permit — so we track it and notify you 60 and 30 days out, keeping your $5,000 filing continuous.

Claims, renewal, filing, and what sets the price.
If a claim is made
A claim comes from the party the bond protects, the obligee named on the form, when the duty the bond guarantees is not met.
The surety investigates and pays a valid claim, up to the $5,000 bond amount. You then repay the surety: a surety bond is a guarantee of your performance, not insurance for you.
Renewal and term
The premium covers a one-year term from the effective date you choose; a longer term is the same price per year, chosen at checkout.
Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.
How to file it
File with the City. Your executed bond arrives by email, ready to file with your Anamosa house mover permit. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
What sets the price
The premium is fixed at $100 at the $5,000 amount for every applicant: the carrier’s rate book prices this bond by the form, not by your credit or your business profile.
