I don't have a clue but bailbondsmen could tell you who to contact.
If I have a business license for pet sitting, do I need to be bonded as well?
Contact an agent or your states dept of insurance.
There is no professional license for mobile shredding services. To get bonded just talk to your insurance agent.
"While most states will not require you to be bonded to become a commercial cleaner, most businesses will not hire you unless you are. Being bonded is insurance that will protect both you and their business."
I have a charge in Indiana 2001 on my record. I'm tring to get employed sub-contractor of a dog sitting position will I not get bonded because of my record.
Contact your insurance agent, and this takes some time. The bonding company will need to see your financial information - about as much as if you were applying for a mortgage - so be patient with the process and give your agent plenty of time.
This depends on your business classification and your local business statutes. If you determine you do need to be bonded, contact your local insurance agent and buy an insurance bond. The type of bond will depend on your business classification. Most likely what you actually need is for your business to be " Insured ". In other words. Commercial General liability. Many if not most Bond Issuers will not issue you a bond if you do not carry appropriate Insurance for your business venture. being Bonded is not the same as being Insured.
Bonding will cover you against employee theft. If you do not have employees it is not necessary. Many clients do not realize this, so a lot of business owners just get it anyways as a marketing tool and to just make the answer to the "are you bonded" question easier. It is fairly cheap to purchase a bond.
If you have employees that are going into peoples houses or place of business they should be bonded to protect your business. If you have a potential employee that cannot be bonded you should not hire them.
Contact your insurance agent--they should have a wealth of options available for bonding
Yes, I would think so, but contact an agent and ask.
Without knowing the state, in which you are operating, I cannot say for sure, but I am guessing there is not a particular law that requires it, but rather the individuals, for which you are house-sitting, require it to ensure you are able to pay for any damage to the property that you may cause. By being bonded and insured you are ensuring there are funds available to pay for any damage you may cause.
