What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
Indiana regulates the disposal of waste tires under IC 13-20-14 and the solid-waste rule at 329 IAC 15. A person may not act as a waste tire transporter — hauling waste tires to storage, processing, or disposal — without registering with the Indiana Department of Environmental Management (IDEM).
To register, a transporter must submit at least $10,000 of financial assurance, commonly a surety bond, payable to IDEM and conditioned on faithful performance of the registration and IC 13-20-14. The bond backs proper handling and manifesting of the tires — a guarantee you won’t dump them or skip the manifest paperwork.
It is not insurance for you — if IDEM recovers against the bond, you repay the surety. Transporters who manifest and dispose of tires correctly treat the bond as a registration formality. The $10,000 is fixed by the rule, so the price is a flat $200 — a quick soft credit check may apply, never a hard inquiry, and it never affects your score.
