Reading the insurance rows. BI&PD stands for bodily injury and property damage liability, the cover a carrier must hold to operate in the United States. The cargo policy covers the goods in transit, and the surety bond, generally the BMC-84, is the proof-of-financial-responsibility record. A carrier can be required to carry a policy that is not yet on file, so treat any required-but-not-on-file line as a reason to ask for the certificate before you dispatch.

Owner-operator or a fleet?

The registration distinguishes private carriers, who haul their own goods, from for-hire carriers. Here the private carrier flag is No and the enterprise flag is No. This distinction matters when you need a dedicated or contracted asset rather than a spot quote.

What type of freight does this carrier handle?

How do I verify a carrier before booking?

Three checks, in order: check the USDOT number and verify the authority status, check the insurance required against the insurance on file, and check that the phone number you are given matches the one published on the operator's own listing.

What does USDOT 517705 mean?
