We’ve become aware of rumors that some companies may cease to offer surety bonds to transportation brokers in the coming year. It’s not uncommon in the surety and insurance industry for providers to come and go from time to time. This is often a result of programs that are underpriced and therefore not sustainable. TIA Services bond program is not going anywhere, as a matter of fact, in addition to $75,000 broker bonds, we also continue to write bonds with higher limits and the program has never been stronger.

Our bond holders are listed every Friday night on ALL of the major freight boards showing the amount of the bond and displaying the TIA Bond logo next to your name. As the most respected bond program in the marketplace, many shippers and carriers look for the TIA Bond logo because they know that those holding the bond have been properly underwritten. Shippers and carriers can also take comfort in the fact that the program is fully funded and a fair and just claims process exists to ensure the payment of legitimate claims until the bond limit is exhausted.
