About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the waste hauling bond actually covers

Anyone in the business of transporting hazardous waste, waste oil, petroleum or chemical liquids, biomedical waste, or other Connecticut-regulated waste must hold a transporter permit from DEEP under CGS 22a-454 and the related regulations. These permits turn on financial responsibility — proof that the hauler can stand behind its obligations.

One honest note. DEEP's transporter program generally satisfies financial responsibility through insurance, and a flat statewide surety-bond mandate is not the universal rule for every transporter. A surety bond shows up where a specific permit, a clean-up or spill-contractor requirement, a municipal contract, or a counterparty asks for one. We won't imply a blanket bond mandate that may not apply to you.

Where a surety bond is what you were asked for, it guarantees your performance and your environmental obligations — if you fail and someone is harmed, they can recover against the bond, and if the surety pays, you repay the surety. Confirm the exact amount and the obligee with DEEP or your counterparty first, then we price it at 0.5% of that amount, $100 minimum. The application collects no credit information, and on the rare bond where a check does run, it is a soft pull that never affects your score.

CGS 22a-454 (DEEP waste transporter permit)Connecticut General Statutes § 22a-454, with regulations including RCSA §§ 22a-449(c)-11 and 22a-209-15, requires a DEEP permit to engage in the business of transporting hazardous waste, waste oil, petroleum or chemical liquids, biomedical waste, or other Connecticut-regulated waste, and conditions those permits on financial responsibility. Financial responsibility is commonly met through insurance; a surety bond applies where a specific permit, spill-contractor requirement, municipal contract, or counterparty calls for one. Confirm the exact bond amount and obligee with DEEP before purchasing.

FAQ

Common questions.

Does Connecticut require a surety bond to haul waste?DEEP requires a waste-transporter permit under CGS 22a-454, conditioned on financial responsibility — which is commonly met through insurance. A surety bond is required where a specific permit, spill-contractor rule, municipal contract, or counterparty calls for one. Confirm whether a bond is what you need before buying.
How much is it?The premium is 0.5% of the bond amount, $100 minimum. Because the amount depends on what you were asked for, enter that figure and your exact price appears at the application.
Is there a credit check?The application collects no credit section — most applications approve instantly. On the rare bond where a check does run, it is a soft pull that never affects your credit score.
Who is the bond payable to?Whoever required it — usually DEEP for a permit, or a municipality or counterparty for a contract. Send us the requirement and we’ll name the correct obligee on the bond.
What if I'm not sure of the amount?Ask DEEP or whoever required the bond for the exact figure and the obligee. We’d rather confirm it than issue a bond that doesn’t match your requirement.
Which A-rated carriers underwrite these bonds?Typically Arch Insurance Company (A.M. Best A+) or Nationwide Mutual Insurance Company (A.M. Best A). Which one writes your bond depends on the bond type and your state. The carrier's name and official signature are printed on the bond you receive.
