Miami County, KS requires a $10,000 oversize / overweight load permit bond before you move a load that exceeds legal size or weight limits on county roads and bridges. Ours is $300 flat — 3% of the $10,000 bond amount, the same for every hauler.
















An oversize / overweight permit bond is the simplest thing in surety. Here is the entire process:
Business details and an effective date. That is the application — no financials, no credit check section.
Fixed-amount municipal bonds like this are among the thousands of bond types that issue right after purchase. At most, 1–2 business days.
Your executed bond and power of attorney arrive by email, ready to file with Miami County, KS for your oversize / overweight load permit. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
$10,000 bond × 3% = $300, one-time per term (above the $275 minimum). Pick a 1, 2, or 3-year term.
An oversize / overweight load permit bond is a road-and-bridge protection guarantee. Miami County, KS issues permits to move loads that exceed legal size or weight limits on its roads, and conditions the permit on a $10,000 surety bond standing behind any damage your heavy load causes to county pavement, bridges, or structures, and your compliance with the permit conditions.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and Miami County (the obligee). If an overweight load damages a county road or bridge, or a permittee violates the permit, the county can recover against the bond for the repair.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Haulers who route legally and travel within their permit treat the bond as a permit formality, not a risk.
These are the actual issuing fields — no credit check section, because this bond doesn't have one.
