General liability
General liability is the foundation of any Utah cleaning business insurance plan. It protects you if a third party suffers bodily injury or property damage because of your work. Picture a client slipping on a freshly mopped floor or a vacuum cord causing a trip hazard. This policy helps pay for medical bills, legal defense, and any settlements or judgments. It also covers accidental damage to furniture, flooring, or other client property during routine cleaning tasks. Professional Liability | Anderson Insurance Group
Workers’ Compensation
If you have employees 'even part-time staff' Utah law requires workers’ compensation insurance. Cleaning work often involves repetitive motion, chemical exposure, and heavy lifting. If an employee injures a back while moving equipment or develops a respiratory issue from cleaning agents, workers’ comp covers medical care, rehabilitation, and a portion of lost wages. Having this coverage also protects you from costly lawsuits related to workplace injuries. What Type of Insurance Does a Utah Janitor Need? | Anderson Insurance Group
Tools & Equipment Coverage
Your tools are the backbone of your service: vacuums, carpet extractors, pressure washers, and specialized cleaning solutions. Tools & Equipment coverage reimburses you if those items are stolen from a job site, damaged in a vehicle accident, or destroyed by fire or water. It’s especially valuable for mobile cleaning companies that transport gear daily and can’t afford downtime when critical equipment is lost or broken.
Commercial Auto
Many cleaning companies rely on vans, trucks, or SUVs to move staff and supplies between jobs. A personal auto policy usually excludes business use. Commercial Auto insurance protects company vehicles and drivers from liability claims, collision damage, and uninsured motorists. It can also include coverage for cleaning supplies and equipment being transported important when you’re carrying chemicals or high-value machines.
Voluntary Property Damage
While general liability covers accidental damage, Voluntary Property Damage goes a step further by covering property that’s under your care or control. For example, if a team member moves an expensive art piece to clean behind it and accidentally cracks the frame, this coverage helps pay for repairs or replacement. It reassures high-end residential and commercial clients that their valuables are protected while you work. What is Voluntary Property Damage Coverage? | Anderson Insurance Group
Bonds (Surety or Janitorial Bonds)
Certain commercial and government contracts require a janitorial or surety bond. Bonds give clients peace of mind by guaranteeing that your company will fulfill its contractual obligations and provide compensation if you fail to meet agreed-upon terms. What exactly is a Bond?
