What the water-services bond actually does
Metro Water Services is the water and sewer utility for the Metropolitan Government of Nashville & Davidson County, Tennessee. Like most utilities, it can require a deposit or security from commercial, industrial, or higher-risk customers as protection against unpaid water and sewer bills.
Rather than leave that cash on deposit, you can post a surety bond for the same amount. The bond guarantees Metro Water that your bills will be paid — if you default, Metro Water can recover the unpaid balance against the bond, up to the penal sum.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays Metro Water, you repay the surety. The advantage is cash flow: you pay a 3% premium instead of tying up the full deposit. Enter the figure Metro Water set and we issue the bond on the spot, no credit check.
