Instead of tying up cash, the Sevier County Utility District lets a customer post a surety bond to secure a natural-gas service account. The district sets the deposit amount — we issue the bond at a flat 3% of the penal sum with no credit check, so you keep your cash.
















No underwriting queue for the standard utility deposit bond — enter your amount, pay, and deliver it to the district. Here is the whole thing:
Your business details, the deposit amount the district required, and the effective date — that is the entire application.
No credit check and no waiting — the executed bond is generated as soon as you pay. Larger amounts may get a quick review.
Submit the executed bond to the Sevier County Utility District in place of your cash deposit. Wet-ink originals mailed on request.
Bond amount × 3% = your premium, one-time, $275 minimum. Enter the deposit the district required and the premium updates.
When you open or hold a Sevier County Utility District natural-gas account, the district can ask for a security deposit against unpaid bills. Rather than leaving cash on deposit, you can post a utility deposit surety bond for the same amount — the district is protected, and your money stays in your business.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Sevier County Utility District (the obligee). If the account goes unpaid, the district can recover the unpaid balance against the bond up to the deposit amount it set.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. For most customers the bond is simply a cheaper way to satisfy a deposit than tying up the full amount in cash. We issue the district’s amount at a flat 3% with no credit check.
Submit the application with the deposit amount the district set — the executed bond is generated instantly, ready to deliver.
