The Town of Huntington requires a fixed $1,000 bond as a condition of a peddler or solicitor license — protecting residents who buy from door-to-door and itinerant vendors. Ours is $100 flat, set by our carrier rate book for this bond. The bond issues the moment you pay — no credit review of any kind, not even a soft pull.
















Peddler bonds are the simplest thing in surety. Here's the entire process:
Business details and an effective date. That's the application — no financials, no credit section.
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 arrives by email, ready to file with your Town of Huntington peddler / solicitor license application. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
The Town of Huntington licenses peddlers and solicitors who sell door-to-door or from itinerant locations, and conditions the license on a $1,000 surety bond. The bond is a consumer-protection guarantee: it stands behind the peddler dealing honestly and following the Town code that governs solicitation.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Town of Huntington (the obligee), with town residents as the protected parties. If a licensed peddler defrauds a buyer or violates the peddler ordinance, the harmed resident can recover against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Peddlers who deal honestly treat the bond as a license formality, not a risk.
These are the actual issuing fields — no credit section, because this bond doesn't have one.
