What the insurance lines mean. BI&PD is bodily injury and property damage liability, the coverage required to operate in the United States. Cargo insurance covers the freight itself, and the surety bond, typically the BMC-84, is the proof-of-financial-responsibility filing. A carrier may be obliged to hold a policy that is not yet on file, so read any required-but-not-on-file line as grounds to request the certificate before you dispatch.

What type of freight does this carrier handle?

How can I verify a carrier before booking?

Three steps, 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. Mismatches between a broker's paperwork and the federal record are the most frequent source of freight fraud.

What does USDOT 1398282 mean?

USDOT is the federal operating identifier assigned to motor carriers in the United States.

Safety and compliance data appears in the FMCSA's carrier snapshot rather than on this page, and it is only available for carriers that have been inspected. If safety history is a deciding factor for your load, open the official record for USDOT 1398282 and check it there.
