What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
Macomb requires door-to-door solicitors and peddlers to register with the Township Clerk and post a $500 bond. The bond is a consumer-protection guarantee — it stands behind deposits residents pay for goods or services to be delivered later, and backs the solicitor's compliance with the township's rules.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the township (the obligee), with residents as the protected parties. If a solicitor takes money and fails to deliver, or otherwise violates the solicitation rules, a harmed resident can recover against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Honest solicitors treat the bond as a permit formality; it keeps your $500 filing on record with the Township Clerk for the permit term.

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 $500 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 Township Clerk. Your executed bond arrives by email, ready to file with the Macomb Township Clerk alongside your solicitor / peddler permit application. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
What sets the price
