The Marion County Board of Health requires a solid waste hauler to file a $10,000 bond as a condition of being licensed to collect and haul solid waste in the county. Ours is $100 flat, set by our carrier's rate book for this bond. The bond issues the moment you pay — no credit check.
















Municipal license bonds are the simplest thing in surety. Here's the entire process:
Business details and an effective date. That is the application. No credit check.
Small fixed-amount municipal bonds like this are among the thousands of bond types that issue right after purchase.

The Marion County Board of Health (Marion Public Health) licenses solid waste haulers — the operators who collect and transport residential and commercial waste in the county — and conditions that license on a $10,000 surety bond. Because waste hauling touches public health and the environment, the bond is a public-health and compliance guarantee: it stands behind you hauling and disposing of waste lawfully and to the Board's rules.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier standing behind you, and the Marion County Board of Health (the obligee), with the public as the protected party. If a licensed hauler dumps illegally, fails to dispose of waste properly, or violates the Board's solid waste rules, the Board or a 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 dispose at licensed facilities and follow the Board's rules treat the bond as a license formality, and we keep your $10,000 filing continuous with renewal notices 60 and 30 days out.
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 $10,000 bond amount. You then repay the surety: a surety bond is a guarantee of your performance, not insurance for you.
The bond runs to December 31 whatever day you buy; the premium covers the period to that date.
Renewal falls on the statutory date, December 31, 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.

The premium is fixed at $100 at the $10,000 amount for every applicant: the carrier’s rate book prices this bond by the form, not by your credit or your business profile.
