Jefferson Parish requires a road-damage bond before it permits a house mover to move a structure over parish roads. The parish sets the amount; it is priced at 1% of the bond amount, $100 minimum, and your exact price appears at the application.
















No paperwork queue for the standard road-damage bond — enter your amount, apply, and file with the parish. Here is the whole thing:
Your business details, the bond amount the parish required, and the effective date — that is the entire application. No credit section on the form.
Pricing is 1% of the bond amount, $100 minimum — not a credit or underwriting tier. If a check runs, it is a soft pull that never affects your credit score.
Submit the executed bond with your house-moving permit application at Jefferson Parish. Wet-ink originals mailed on request.
Jefferson Parish requires a permit before a house mover takes an oversized structure over parish roads and rights-of-way. As a condition of that permit, the parish requires a road-damage surety bond.
The bond is a public-infrastructure guarantee: it stands behind your obligation to repair any damage your move causes to parish roads, shoulders, signals, and drainage — so the public isn't left paying to fix what an oversized load tore up.
It is a three-party arrangement — you (the principal), the surety carrier, and Jefferson Parish (the obligee). It is not insurance for you: if the parish makes a valid claim for road damage and the surety pays, you repay the surety.
Submit the application with the bond amount Jefferson Parish set — most applicants see the executed bond generated instantly, ready to file.
