New Jersey municipalities license door-to-door peddlers and solicitors at the local level, and the City of Burlington conditions its permit on a surety bond. The bond is a consumer-protection guarantee: it stands behind your honest dealing with residents you sell to, and your compliance with the city's solicitation rules.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier standing behind you, and the City of Burlington (the obligee), with residents as the protected parties. If a peddler takes deposits and fails to deliver, or otherwise violates the city's peddling ordinance, a harmed resident can recover against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Peddlers and solicitors who deal honestly treat the bond as a permit formality. We issue the amount the city set, at a flat 3% with no credit check.
Submit the application with the bond amount the City of Burlington set — the executed bond is generated instantly, ready to file with the City Clerk.
