What the insurance lines mean. BI&PD stands for bodily injury and property damage liability, the cover a carrier must hold to operate in the United States. Cargo insurance applies to the freight being carried, and the surety bond, usually a BMC-84, is the proof-of-financial-responsibility record. A carrier can be required to maintain a policy that is not yet on file, so read any required but not on file line as a reason to request the certificate before you dispatch.

Frequently asked questions about PHIL'S AUTO LLC

Is PHIL'S AUTO LLC licensed to operate?

It currently holds the following federal authority status: Active – Common Authority. That wording is drawn from the registration record rather than inferred, which tells you exactly which authorities the carrier holds and whether a revocation is in progress. The register is maintained by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), and any revocation or suspension is recorded in the official snapshot.

Does PHIL'S AUTO LLC carry insurance?

The record shows BI&PD liability on file at $1,000,000, against a federal minimum of $1,000,000. The entry shows cargo insurance as Not on file, and the surety bond is Not on file. Always ask for the actual certificate before a load moves, because this page reflects the federal filing, which is not always updated on the same day a policy is issued.

Is this 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 reads No. That matters when you need a dedicated or contracted asset rather than a one-off spot quote.

What type of freight does the company 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 reads No. Look at the household goods flag specifically if you are moving a move, because it requires separate federal authority and a different insurance profile.

How can I verify a carrier before booking?

Three checks, in order: check 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. Gaps between a broker's paperwork and the federal record are the single most common source of freight fraud.

What does USDOT 1078934 mean?

USDOT is the federal operating number assigned to US 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 does not. Use it when you ask for an insurance certificate, verify authority, or make a freight claim.

Where can I find the safety scores for this carrier?

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 1078934 and review it there.
