What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
A rubbish hauler bond is a compliance and public-property guarantee. When you collect refuse within the City of Bowling Green, the city wants a financial backstop that you follow its hauling rules and don't leave streets, alleys, or property damaged or littered.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Bowling Green (the obligee). If a hauler violates the city's refuse rules or damages public or private property in the course of collection, the city or harmed party can recover against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Haulers who follow the city rules treat the bond as a license formality, not a risk.

Claims, renewal, filing, and what sets the price.
If a claim is made
A claim comes from the party the bond protects, the obligee named on the form, when the duty the bond guarantees is not met.
The surety investigates and pays a valid claim, up to the $5,000 bond amount. You then repay the surety: a surety bond is a guarantee of your performance, not insurance for you.
Renewal and term
The bond runs to February 28 whatever day you buy; the premium covers the period to that date.
Renewal falls on the statutory date, February 28, in the year your term ends.
Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.
How to file it
File with the city. Your executed bond arrives by email, ready to file with Bowling Green's clerk / public works department with your hauler license. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
What sets the price
The premium is fixed at $100 at the $5,000 amount for every applicant: the carrier’s rate book prices this bond by the form, not by your credit or your business profile.
