What it is and who needs it.
What the Edina refuse hauler bond covers
The City of Edina licenses refuse and recycling haulers — the companies that collect garbage, recycling, and organics within the City — and conditions that license on a surety bond. The bond is a compliance and public-property guarantee: it stands behind your following the City’s hauling and recycling ordinance and not damaging City streets or alleys with your trucks.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Edina (the obligee). If a hauler violates the City’s ordinance or damages public property, the City can recover against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays the City, you repay the surety. Haulers who follow the ordinance treat the bond as a routine license formality.

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 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.
Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.
