Oregon's Department of Environmental Quality licenses sewage disposal services, and a pumper-only license carries a $5,000 bond under ORS 454.705. Three percent of $5,000 is below our floor, so this bond is $275 flat — with no credit check at all.
















This is a fixed-amount license bond with no credit section. The whole process:
Business details and an effective date. That is the application — no financials, no credit check section.
Fixed-amount license bonds like this are among the many that issue right after purchase. At most, 1–2 business days.
Your executed bond arrives by email, issued to your exact registered business name, ready to file with your sewage disposal service license. Wet-ink originals mailed on request.
3% of $5,000 is $150, but our minimum premium is $275 — so this bond is $275 per term, regardless.
Oregon requires a license to perform sewage disposal services under ORS 454.695, and the application must include a bond under ORS 454.705. The Environmental Quality Commission sets the amount by rule: $5,000 for a pumper-only license, and $15,000 for installer or pumper/installer licenses.
The bond is in favor of the State of Oregon and is conditioned that, in performing sewage disposal services, you comply with ORS 454.605 to 454.755 and the Environmental Quality Commission's rules. A pumper services and maintains onsite systems — emptying septic tanks and hauling the contents to an approved site.
If you violate the sewage disposal rules and harm someone, they can recover against the bond — and if the surety pays, you repay the surety. The bond should be issued to your exact registered business name. We write the $5,000 pumper bond at $275 with no credit check.
These are the actual issuing fields — no credit check section, because this bond doesn't have one. Make sure the business name matches your Secretary of State registration.
