About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

The City of Pleasant Hill licenses peddlers and solicitors — people selling goods or soliciting orders door-to-door — and conditions that license on a $1,000 surety bond. The bond is a consumer-protection guarantee standing behind your honest dealing with residents.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Pleasant Hill (the obligee). If a peddler or solicitor defrauds a resident or violates the city's peddler / solicitor ordinance, the harmed party can recover against the bond.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Honest peddlers and solicitors treat the bond as a license formality, not a risk. We track it and notify you 60 and 30 days out so your filing stays continuous.

City of Pleasant Hill — peddler / solicitor licenseThe City of Pleasant Hill requires this $1,000 bond as a condition of its peddler / solicitor license; the bond amount and terms are set by the City of Pleasant Hill through its peddler and solicitor ordinance.

FAQs

Common questions.

If yours isn't here, the bond team can usually answer within the hour.

How much is the Pleasant Hill peddler / solicitor bond? +
The premium is $275 — our minimum. A flat 3% of the $1,000 bond is $30, well below the minimum, so everyone pays $275. The $1,000 amount is set by the City of Pleasant Hill.
Do I pay the $1,000? +
No. You pay $275. The $1,000 is the surety's maximum liability if a valid claim is made against the bond — not a deposit, and nobody holds your money.
How fast will I have the bond? +
License bonds like this are among the thousands of bond types that issue right after purchase — many applicants finish and have the bond in the same sitting. At most, 1–2 business days.
Is there a credit check? +
Not on this bond — the application has no credit section at all. Small fixed-amount city license bonds like this one don't need one.
What's the difference between a peddler and a solicitor? +
A peddler sells goods directly (carrying inventory door-to-door); a solicitor takes orders or solicits for later delivery. Pleasant Hill licenses both, and this $1,000 bond covers the license either way.
