That's an excellent idea boxermom!
I must admit, I've never done this as I usually rush straight to small claims court...
Can anyone tell me how to proceed with a claim against a bond?

I ultimately had to set this one aside for some time as I got quite busy this year... Not that we are busy with freight of course... haahahaa... but busy doing the job of the other office staff we laid off...

Nevermind, I think I've got this figured out...
Called their bond holder - Southwest Marine and General Insurance
They are emailing me with a claim form now.
Thanks again for the suggestion @boxermom

$8200 for broker freight in 2025 should have raised a red flag. Unless it was Hawaii to Nova Scotia.

Jonny,
I tried reaching them but i was told to file claim though my broker.
If you can help, how did you file this claim?
Call the bond holder, Southwest Marine and General Insurance and ask for a claim form.

You need to reach-out to the insurance company that issued their freight bond BMC 84/85

Hi @FLATLOADCA
If you are having trouble still, send me a PM with your email address and I will forward the claim form to you and where to send it. I'm out of the office for a few days next week, but back in on Thursday and I would be happy to help if you are still stuck.

Pentagon not officially bankrupt per BIA search July 31, 2025. Broker authority revoked by FMCSA August 4, 2025 but motor carrier authority still in effect

We're in the midst of hiring one of their previous drivers, who had said they went out of business recently

Alls well that ends well as they say... For me anyway... Filed against their bond as @boxermom suggested, back in July... Got our cheque from the bond holder this week. Paid in full surprisingly...
As we say around here when things go as they are supposed to: The System Works!

So there does seem to be value in dealing with a properly registered and licensed freight broker. Of course, dealing with a properly run, well financed broker who doesn’t run their operation into the ground, is even better. Good news for you Johnny Chicken!
