Berkeley County requires a $2,000 bond of refuse collectors and haulers as a condition of operating in the county. Ours is $275 flat — the 3% minimum — with no credit check. License-style bonds like this are among the fastest things we issue.
















Permit bonds like this 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 fixed permit bonds like this are among the thousands that issue right after purchase. At most, 1–2 business days.
Your executed bond arrives by email, ready to file with your Berkeley County refuse collection permit / franchise application. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
$2,000 bond × 3% = $60, well below our $275 minimum, so the price is $275 per term. Fixed amount, fixed price, multi-year if you want it.
Berkeley County permits refuse collectors and haulers who operate within the county and conditions that permit or franchise on a $2,000 surety bond. The bond runs to the County as obligee and stands behind your compliance with the County's solid-waste collection rules.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety, and Berkeley County (the obligee). If a hauler violates the County's collection rules and the County or a customer suffers a loss, they can recover against the bond up to $2,000.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Haulers who collect and dispose to County standards treat the bond as a permit formality. We issue it at a flat $275 with no credit check.
These are the actual issuing fields — no credit check section, because this bond doesn't have one.
