Janitorial bonds.
For cleaning companies.
A janitorial bond protects the people you clean for: if a member of your crew steals from a client’s office or home, the bond reimburses them. Property managers, offices, schools and government cleaning contracts often require one before you start, and it is a selling point on any bid. It is sold as a business service bond — the same product — from $2,500 to $250,000, priced by the amount and the size of your crew. Pick your tier below; each shows its price before you apply.

What it covers, who asks for it, and which tier to buy.
Why clients ask for one
Your crew works unsupervised, often after hours, with keys and alarm codes. A bond tells the client that if someone on your team takes something, they will be repaid. Commercial cleaning contracts and public janitorial solicitations frequently make it a condition of award.
What it does and does not cover
It covers theft by your employees from the client; each tier’s page says exactly what its form covers. Slips, injuries and accidents on site are general liability insurance, not this bond, and it does not protect your own business from employee theft — that is a commercial crime policy.
Which tier to buy
The amount your contract or client names, and the band covering everyone who cleans on client sites: 6 or fewer, 7 to 15, or 16 and up. One bond covers all your clients.
