About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the C.O.D. bond actually guarantees

A collect-on-delivery (C.O.D.) shipment is one where the carrier collects payment from the consignee at delivery and forwards it to the shipper. A Georgia motor carrier handling C.O.D. freight posts a $2,000 bond — on the Georgia Public Service Commission form — guaranteeing it handles that money honestly.

It’s a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the obligee, with shippers and consignees as the protected parties. If a carrier fails to deliver the goods as agreed or fails to remit the funds it collected on delivery, the harmed party can recover against the bond.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a valid claim, you repay the surety. We track your filing and send renewal notices 60 and 30 days out so your $2,000 bond stays continuous while you carry C.O.D. freight.
