What Is a Bonded Trucker?
Regardless of whether products reach the U.S. via plane, boat or another means, trucks are used to transport them to their final destinations. This includes food, clothing, fuel and other imported products. A bonded truck driver holds a special certification issued from this company or a third-party company that acts as an insurance policy.
What Is a Bond?
A bond is a promise that a contractor, or driver, will fulfill his obligations. If a driver is bonded, a third-party company or his trucking company backs his performance and promises he will complete the task as agreed upon. Therefore, a bond provides assurance that the contracted work will be satisfactorily completed.
Requirements for a Bond
Before a company provides a bond for a truck driver, he must undergo a strict background check. The company that performs the background check uses the driver’s personal information, including his name, address, Social Security number and date of birth, to determine whether the driver has any negative marks on his record that may prevent him from being bonded. For instance, a felony on the driver’s record or several traffic tickets may disqualify him.
Benefits of Being Bonded
Drivers often haul valuable loads for customers. This may include vehicles, jewelry or even money. Additionally, some companies, including government contractors, require truck drivers hauling their goods to be bonded.
Being bonded helps strengthen both the driver’s and the freight company’s position by ensuring the obligations are completed.
Disadvantages of Bonding
The major disadvantage of getting a bond for a truck driver is the cost. The trucking company generally passes the cost on to the customer, which may result in few loads overall. Also, some good drivers may not be able to pass the required background check. They may have criminal records that restricts them from being bonded, making keeping drivers challenging for the company.

Bonding is not just for customs.

What It Means To Be Bonded, Licensed & Insured
Whenever a company offers its services, it’s generally quick to note that it’s
bonded, licensed, and insured (when it applies and if they are) but I was never certain what that actually meant. Until now, all I knew is that
you should only hire someone if they’re bonded, licensed (if applicable) and insured. Often times someone who isn’t will be cheaper, but you will have to accept all of the responsibility if something bad happens and, as Murphy’s Law clearly states – if something bad can happen, it will.
Bonded
Being bonded means that a bonding company has secured money that is available to the consumer in the event they file a claim against the company. The secured money is in the control of the state, a bond, and not under the control of the company. Let’s say that you hire a cleaning company and they end up stealing your Nintendo Wii. Well, you would file a claim against the company and, after an investigation, would be paid out by this bond.
This is slightly different but similar to what it means for an employee to be bonded.
Being bonded in that case means that a bonding company has investigated your background and finds that you’re trustworthy and “good” enough to insure. In general, this is generally done when an employee has to handle large amounts of money or handle valuable property like jewelry or art. There is a very extensive and deep background check involved and what the employer gets is insurance that you won’t steal. If you do, then the bonding company pays out the amount of the theft. By being bonded, it shows that the employee is trustworthy enough for a bonding company to insure you up to a certain amount. Now, a company that is bonded means that a bonding company has funds
