An fidelity bond professional movers is an inexpensive way to protect a moving company's clients clients and advertise as a "bonded enterprise". This type of crime coverage is often called a "third party fidelity bond" or "dishonesty bond". Fidelity bonds for moving companies may be written on a blanket basis that protects ALL clients of a mover or client-specific which is convenient if the mover sub-contracts for a large national or international cargo transport business. A fidelity bond covers the dishonest acts of employees that provide services "on the premises" of clients or as a full fidelity product which offers internal theft (embezzlement) protection as well.
