When you move a superheavy or oversize load over Leon County roads, the county can require a permit bond to back the cost of any road or bridge damage. Leon County sets the amount on your permit; premiums are 1% of the bond amount, $100 minimum. Your exact price appears at the application.

Your business details, the bond amount the county required, and the effective date — that is the entire application.
The application collects no credit information, and most amounts issue as soon as you pay.

Texas counties may permit the movement of superheavy or oversize loads over their roads and can require a surety bond as a condition of the permit. The bond stands behind the cost of repairing any damage the haul causes to county roads, bridges, or culverts along the route.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and Leon County (the obligee). If your overweight or oversize move damages a county road or bridge and you do not repair it, the county can recover the cost against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Carriers who route carefully and leave the roads as they found them treat the bond as a permit formality. Enter the amount Leon County set and see your price, from $100, at the application.
