Who Needs This Bond?
New residents setting up electric, water, or sewerage service in Shelbyville for the first time are the most common applicants. Renters moving into a new address who are told a deposit is required before service can be activated also need this bond. Small business owners opening a commercial account with the Shelbyville Power, Water & Sewerage Systems after a lapse in service or a credit-related deposit requirement will need it as well. If Shelbyville's utility department has informed you that a deposit is required, this bond is your direct alternative.
What is this Bond For?
Shelbyville Power, Water & Sewerage Systems requires certain customers to secure their account before service begins. This bond guarantees that if you default on your utility payments, the city's utility systems can make a claim to recover the unpaid balance — up to the bond amount. You, as the principal, remain responsible for your bills, but the bond replaces the cash the utility would otherwise hold. It gives the utility the financial protection it needs without requiring you to part with your money upfront.
When is it Required?
Right before your Shelbyville utility account is opened or reactivated is exactly when this bond is requested. After the utility reviews your account history or credit profile and determines a deposit is necessary, they will notify you of the bond requirement as an alternative option. You must provide the executed bond before service is turned on or restored. Don't delay — utilities will not activate service until the bond or deposit is received.
Where Does it Apply?

It satisfies the deposit requirement for that local utility only and is not a statewide instrument accepted by any other Tennessee utility provider.
