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. Cargo insurance covers the freight itself, and the surety bond, usually the BMC-84, is the proof-of-financial-responsibility filing. A carrier can legally be required to maintain 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.

Is TRANSPORT ALAIN GIROUX ET FILS INC. licensed to operate?

The authority status on the federal record reads Active – Common & Broker Authority. That wording is taken from the registration record rather than being inferred, which shows exactly which authorities the carrier holds and whether any revocation is in progress. The register is maintained by the U.S. FMCSA and the relevant provincial transportation authority, and any revocation or suspension shows up in the official snapshot.

Does TRANSPORT ALAIN GIROUX ET FILS INC. carry insurance?

The record shows BI&PD liability on file at $750,000, against a federal minimum of $750,000. The entry shows cargo insurance as Not on file, and the surety bond is On file. Request the actual certificate before a load moves, because this page reflects the federal filing, which is not always updated the day a policy is issued.

Is the carrier an owner-operator or a fleet?

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

What type of freight does this carrier handle?

It is registered as a Freight Carrier. The property carrier flag reads Yes, the passenger carrier flag shows No and the household goods carrier flag shows No. Check the household goods flag in particular if you are moving house, as it needs its own federal authority and carries a different insurance profile.

How should I verify a carrier before booking?

Three checks, in order: look up the USDOT number and read 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. Discrepancies between a broker's paperwork and the federal record are the single most common source of freight fraud.

What does USDOT 789151 mean?

The USDOT number is the federal operating number given to motor carriers in the United States. It is the most dependable identifier a carrier has, since company names get traded, rebranded and duplicated, whereas the USDOT number stays constant. Use it when you request an insurance certificate, verify authority, or make a freight claim.

Are the safety scores for this carrier available?

Safety and compliance data is held 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 789151 and review it there.
