Chadbourne Auto Transport Brokerage LLC

Source note: The bond summary uses the selected filing's effective date, June 5, 2024. Other financial-filing source rows show June 5, 2026. These may be different filings or disagreements between files; the records do not establish why the dates differ. The timeline preserves those rows separately, not as one consistent policy date or proof of a coverage gap.

Source note: The selected bond filing names Merchants Bonding Company (Mutual); other financial-filing rows name Merchants Bonding Company ( Mutual). The files do not explain these provider differences. A shared effective date does not establish one consistent policy or insurer; each source row is retained separately.

As of Oct 21, 2026, Chadbourne Auto Transport Brokerage LLC in Fairfield, Maine has broker authority status “Suspended”, with 1 suspension or revocation on record.
