What Is the Bond?
In Florida, waste tire handling is strictly regulated to prevent environmental contamination and fire hazards. The bond acts as a financial assurance that the permit holder will properly manage, transport, and dispose of tires according to state law.
The bond creates a legal guarantee between three parties:
- Principal – You, the waste tire transporter or facility operator
- Obligee – Florida – Orange County Solid Waste Division
- Surety – Propeller Bonds

This bond is typically required for:

I love the ease of the system - that I can issue bonds on behalf of the client or send them a link and have them do it. I love that you have thousands of bonds in your database. I feel comfortable talking to a client across the country because you probably have the bond form that they need.
