What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
A peddler bond is a consumer-protection guarantee. Peddlers and itinerant merchants sell goods away from a fixed storefront — the Town of Blackstone wants a financial backstop that you will deal honestly, deliver what you sell, and follow the Town ordinance while operating within its limits.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Town of Blackstone (the obligee), with the buying public as the protected parties. If you take payment and fail to deliver, or otherwise violate the peddler ordinance, a harmed customer can recover against the $5,000 bond.
The bond must stay active for the life of your license. Let it lapse and the Town can pull your peddler license — so we track it and notify you 60 and 30 days out, keeping your filing continuous.

Claims, renewal, filing, and what sets the price.
If a claim is made
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 $5,000 bond amount. You then repay the surety: a surety bond is a guarantee of your performance, not insurance for you.
Renewal and term
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.
How to file it

What sets the price
The premium is fixed at $100 at the $5,000 amount for every applicant: the carrier’s rate book prices this bond by the form, not by your credit or your business profile.
