The City of Middletown, Ohio conditions a peddler, solicitor, or transient vendor permit on a $1,000 surety bond. At a flat 3%, $1,000 would be $30 — so this one lands at our $275 minimum premium. The application is five minutes, with no credit check.
















Permit 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 check section.
Small permit bonds like this issue right after purchase. At most, 1–2 business days.
Your executed bond arrives by email, ready to file with your peddler, solicitor, or vendor permit application. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
$1,000 bond × 3% = $30, which is below our $275 minimum — so the price is $275 per term. Fixed amount, fixed price, multi-year if you want it.
The City of Middletown, Ohio regulates door-to-door peddlers, solicitors, and transient vendors and conditions a permit on a $1,000 surety bond. The bond is a consumer-protection guarantee standing behind your compliance with the City’s peddler and solicitation ordinances.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Middletown (the obligee), with the residents you sell to as the protected parties. If a peddler takes money and fails to deliver, or otherwise violates the City’s rules, a harmed resident can recover against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Honest vendors treat the $1,000 bond as a small permit formality, not a risk.
These are the actual issuing fields — no credit check section, because this bond doesn't have one.
