This coverage can include protection for collision, fire, theft, vandalism, and other perils that may occur while the vehicle is in the business’s custody.

It shows that a business is taking the responsibility of caring for customer vehicles seriously and is willing to take steps to ensure that any damages or losses are covered.

Overall, obtaining garage keepers liability insurance is important for any business that stores or repairs vehicles belonging to others. It can provide essential financial protection and help safeguard the reputation of the business in the event of an unexpected incident.

Bonds

Bonds

Bonds can benefit your business and help you build trust with your clients. Surety bonds provide assurances that you will fulfill your contract or follow applicable regulations, while fidelity bonds insure against your workers’ dishonest acts. If you need to purchase a bond, our agency can assist you in obtaining the right ones for your business. Contact us today to get started.

Surety Bonds

Surety bonds are an agreement among three parties:

  • The principal is the party that buys the surety bond.
  • The obligee is a private or governmental party that requires the principal
    to secure a bond.
  • The surety is the entity that underwrites the surety bond, such as an
    insurance company.

The obligee may file a claim against the bond if a principal doesn’t adhere to the surety bond’s terms. Then, if the situation cannot be remedied with the principal, the surety may provide financial compensation to the obligee. If that occurs, the surety will typically seek reimbursement from the principal for that payment.

Fidelity Bonds

Fidelity bonds are a type of business insurance that may financially protect against specific dishonest acts. Two kinds of fidelity bonds include the following:

  • First-party fidelity bonds may cover acts of employee dishonesty
    (e.g., fraud, forgery or theft).
  • Third-party fidelity bonds may provide coverage for dishonest acts by
    individuals working for your business on a contract basis.
