When the Union City Energy Authority asks a commercial or industrial customer for a utility service deposit, you can post a surety bond in lieu of cash. The Authority sets the amount; we issue the bond at a flat 3% with no credit check, so you keep your working capital instead of leaving it on deposit.
















No underwriting queue for the standard utility deposit bond — enter your amount, pay, and file with the Authority. Here is the whole thing:
Your business details, the deposit amount the Authority 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 Authority in place of the cash deposit. Wet-ink originals mailed whenever the Authority insists on them.
Bond amount × 3% = your premium, one-time, $275 minimum. Enter the deposit figure on your Authority notice and the premium updates.
The Union City Energy Authority is the municipal utility serving Union City, Tennessee. Like most utilities, it can require a service deposit from commercial, industrial, or higher-risk customers as security against unpaid utility bills.
Rather than leave that cash on deposit, you can post a surety bond for the same amount. The bond guarantees the Authority that your bills will be paid — if you default, the Authority can recover the unpaid balance against the bond, up to the penal sum.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays the Authority, you repay the surety. The advantage is cash flow: you pay a 3% premium instead of tying up the full deposit. Enter the figure the Authority set and we issue the bond on the spot, no credit check.
Submit the application with the deposit amount the Authority set — the executed bond is generated instantly, ready to file in place of cash.
