Sacramento, CA (PRWEB) August 22, 2013 -- The new $75,000 transportation broker surety bond, also known as an BMC-84 bond, is now available via an online application from Surety1. The BMC-84 Surety Bonds or ICC Transportation Bonds are required by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration. Effective October 1, 2013, the required amount of the surety bond is increasing from $10,000.00 to $75,000.
Licensed property brokers and freight forwarders will have until October 31 to have the bond in place or face suspension of their license. Forwarders and Brokers of household goods will be required to post a $25,000 surety bond versus the current bond amount of $10,000.
