What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually covers
South Carolina regulates waste tire hauling under the Solid Waste Policy and Management Act (S.C. Code § 44-96-170) and Regulation 61-107.3. Anyone who transports more than 15 waste tires at one time for storage, processing, or disposal must register and post $10,000 of financial assurance.
A surety bond is one accepted form of that assurance, alongside a letter of credit, insurance, trust fund, or financial test. The assurance stands behind cleanup and corrective action — if a hauler abandons or improperly disposes of tires, the state can draw on it to pay for the cleanup.
The financial-assurance requirement took effect under the amended Regulation 61-107.3 in June 2015. As of the agency reorganization on July 1, 2024, this program sits with the South Carolina Department of Environmental Services (SCDES), the successor to DHEC’s environmental programs. We issue the $10,000 bond at $200 flat; no credit check.

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 $10,000 bond amount. You then repay the surety: a surety bond is a guarantee of your performance, not insurance for you.
Renewal and term
The premium covers a one-year term from the effective date you choose; a longer term is the same price per year, chosen at checkout.
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 SCDES. Your executed bond arrives by email, ready to file with your South Carolina Department of Environmental Services waste tire hauler registration. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
What sets the price
The premium is fixed at $200 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.
