Stillwater Building Mover Bond
What it is & who requires it
Building and structure movers licensed by Stillwater. This is among the largest municipal mover bonds in Oklahoma and it comes with a substantial insurance requirement attached: workers compensation and employer’s liability at one level and general transport liability at another, both aggregate and per occurrence, from a company licensed in the state, and the policy must stay effective for the whole licensing period rather than just at application. Budget the two together.
