The City of Aledo, TX regulates door-to-door solicitors and peddlers and conditions its solicitation permit on a surety bond. The bond is a consumer-protection guarantee: it stands behind your honest dealing with residents — accurate representations, delivery of what is paid for, and compliance with the city solicitation rules.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Aledo (the obligee), with Aledo residents protected. If a solicitor takes a deposit and never delivers, or otherwise violates the permit, a harmed resident can recover against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Solicitors who deal straight with residents treat the bond as a permit formality. We issue the amount the city set starting from $100, with no credit section on the application.
Submit the application with the bond amount the City of Aledo set — the executed bond is generated instantly, ready to file with your permit.
