The City of Bryan requires a $25,000 surety bond to move a building or large structure within or through city limits. Ours is $125 flat — set by our carrier's rate book for this bond, the price you see at checkout. The bond issues the moment you pay — no credit check.
















City permit bonds are about the simplest thing in surety. Here's the whole process:
Business details and an effective date. That is the application. No credit check.
Fixed-amount city bonds like this issue right after purchase for most applicants.
Your executed bond and power of attorney arrive by email, ready to file with the City of Bryan for your building moving permit. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
Moving a building through Bryan means hauling an oversize load across City streets, curbs, signals, and utility lines — so the City conditions a building moving permit on a $25,000 surety bond. The bond is a public-property and compliance guarantee: it stands behind safe, code-compliant relocation and the repair of any damage your move causes to public infrastructure.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Bryan (the obligee). If a move damages streets, curbs, or utilities and you don't make it right, the City can recover the cost against the bond.
It is not insurance for you. If the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Route your move properly and restore anything you disturb and the bond is just a permit formality — and we keep your $25,000 filing continuous.
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 $25,000 bond amount. You then repay the surety: a surety bond is a guarantee of your performance, not insurance for you.
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.
