How to read the insurance lines. BI&PD means 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, generally the BMC-84, is the proof-of-financial-responsibility record. A carrier can legally be required to hold a policy that is not yet on file, so treat any required but not on file line as grounds to request the certificate before you dispatch.

Frequently asked questions about PISTON TRANSPORT LTD

Is PISTON TRANSPORT LTD licensed to operate?

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

Does PISTON TRANSPORT LTD carry insurance?

The filing lists 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 Not on file. Always ask for the actual certificate before any load moves, because this page reflects the federal filing, which is not always updated on the same day a policy is issued.

Is the carrier an owner-operator or a fleet?

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

What type of freight does this carrier handle?

This carrier is registered as a Freight Carrier. The property carrier flag shows Yes, the passenger carrier flag is set to No and the household goods carrier flag reads No. Look at the household goods flag specifically if you are relocating, because it requires separate federal authority and a different insurance profile.

How do I verify a carrier before booking?

Three steps, in order: look up the USDOT number and read the authority status, check the insurance required against the insurance on file, and confirm 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 single most common source of freight fraud.

What does USDOT 2427402 mean?

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

Where can I find the safety scores for this carrier?

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 matters for your load, open the official record for USDOT 2427402 and check it there.

Information on this page is built from the official federal carrier record and from the operator's published business listing. If you are the carrier and something here is inaccurate, or you are a shipper who has spotted an error, please tell us and we will look into it.
