About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the Lakewood bond actually covers

The City of Lakewood licenses door-to-door peddlers and solicitors and conditions the license on a surety bond. The bond is a consumer-protection guarantee: it stands behind your honest dealing with residents and your compliance with the City peddler/solicitor rules.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Lakewood (the obligee), with the residents you sell to as the protected parties. If you take deposits and fail to deliver, or otherwise violate the 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 peddlers and solicitors treat the bond as a license formality. The City sets the amount; pricing starts from $100, and the application collects no credit information at the standard amount.
