The Village of Montebello conditions a peddling and soliciting license on a $1,500 bond under Chapter 129 of its village code. Ours is $275 flat — our 3% minimum — and the application is five minutes.
















License bonds like this are the simplest thing in surety. Here's the entire process:
Business details and an effective date. That is the application — no financials, no credit check section, no follow-up scavenger hunt.
Small fixed-amount license bonds like this are among the thousands of bond types that issue right after purchase. At most, 1–2 business days.
Your executed bond and power of attorney arrive by email, ready to file with your peddling and soliciting license application. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
3% of $1,500 is $45, below our $275 floor — so $275, one-time per term. Fixed amount, fixed price, multi-year if you want it.
The Village of Montebello regulates peddling and soliciting under Chapter 129 of its village code, and conditions a peddling license on a $1,500 bond. The bond is a consumer-protection guarantee: it stands behind your compliance with the village's peddling rules — including its Do-Not-Knock registry — and protects residents from fraudulent or unlawful sales practices.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Village of Montebello (the obligee), with residents as the protected parties. If a peddler violates the chapter or defrauds a resident, the harmed party can recover against the $1,500 bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. The bond must stay active for the term of the license, so we track it and notify you 60 and 30 days out to keep your village filing continuous.
These are the actual issuing fields — no credit check section, because this bond doesn't have one.
