The City of Burlington, New Jersey requires a surety bond before it issues a peddler or solicitor license to anyone selling door-to-door inside city limits. The city sets the amount; enter the figure on your permit packet and your exact price is shown during the application — which collects no credit information.

Your business details, the bond amount the city requires, and the effective date — that is the entire application.
No credit section to fill out and no waiting — the executed bond is generated as soon as you pay.
Submit the executed bond with your Burlington peddler / solicitor permit application. Wet-ink originals mailed whenever the city insists on them.
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, with your exact price shown before you pay and no credit section to fill out.
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.
