About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the deposit bond actually does

When a utility opens or holds an account, it often wants a security deposit against unpaid charges. The Las Vegas Valley Water District accepts a surety bond in place of that cash deposit — so instead of tying up the full amount with the District, you pay a 3% premium and keep your capital working.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Las Vegas Valley Water District (the obligee). The bond guarantees payment of your water charges up to the bond amount — if the account goes unpaid, the District can recover against the bond.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays the District, you repay the surety. Account holders who pay on time treat the bond as a cash-flow tool. We issue the amount LVVWD set, at a flat 3% with no credit check, and mail the original for filing with the District.

FAQs

Common questions.

If yours isn't here, the bond team can usually answer within the hour.

How much is the LVVWD utility deposit bond? +
The premium is a flat 3% of the bond amount, with a $275 minimum. The amount itself equals the deposit the Las Vegas Valley Water District set on your account — enter that figure and the quote updates.
Why would I post a bond instead of a cash deposit? +
A cash deposit ties up the full amount with the District until you close the account. A surety bond costs 3% of the amount and keeps your capital working — same protection for the District, far less cash out of pocket for you.
Is there a credit check? +
No — the deposit bond is issued with no credit pull. Larger bond amounts may get a quick soft-pull review, which never affects your credit score.
What does the bond guarantee? +
Payment of your water charges to the Las Vegas Valley Water District up to the bond amount. If the account goes unpaid and the District claims against the bond, you repay the surety — it stands in for the cash deposit, not for the bill itself.
How do I file it? +
The original bond is mailed to you to sign as principal, then filed with the Las Vegas Valley Water District in place of your cash deposit. We deliver it ready to sign and submit.
