About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

A peddler / solicitor bond is a consumer-protection guarantee to the City of West University Place. When you go door to door selling goods or taking orders, the city wants a financial backstop that you will follow its solicitation ordinance and deal honestly with residents.

It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of West University Place (the obligee), with the residents you call on as the protected parties. If a peddler takes a deposit and never delivers, or otherwise violates the solicitation ordinance, a harmed resident can recover against the bond.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Honest solicitors treat the bond as a permit formality, and we keep your $1,000 filing continuous with renewal notices 60 and 30 days out.

City of West University Place — solicitation permitThe City of West University Place requires this $1,000 bond as a condition of its peddler / solicitor permit; the bond amount and terms are set by the City of West University Place under its solicitation ordinance. The city does not publish a standalone ordinance number for the bond online — we issue the $1,000 amount the city requires on its permit form. Confirm the current requirement with the City Secretary before filing.
