The Unified Government of Wyandotte County / Kansas City, KS requires a $5,000 hauler bond to license a solid-waste or trash hauler. Ours is $275 flat — 3% of the $5,000 bond amount, the same number for every hauler. The application is five minutes.
















A municipal license 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 the Unified Government of Wyandotte County / Kansas City, KS for your hauler license. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
$5,000 bond × 3% = $150, but the $275 minimum applies — so $275 per term. Renews on December 31; pick a 1, 2, or 3-year term.
A hauler bond is a public-protection guarantee. The Unified Government of Wyandotte County / Kansas City, KS licenses solid-waste and trash haulers operating in the county, and conditions that license on a $5,000 surety bond standing behind your compliance with the local solid-waste and hauler ordinances.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Unified Government (the obligee). If a hauler violates the local hauling rules or fails to perform as the license requires, the Unified Government — or a harmed party — can recover against the bond.
The bond must stay active for the life of your hauler license. This one carries a statutory December 31 renewal date, so we track it and notify you 60 and 30 days out to keep your filing continuous.
These are the actual issuing fields — no credit check section, because this bond doesn't have one.
