How to read the insurance lines. BI&PD means bodily injury and property damage liability, the coverage a carrier must carry 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 record. A carrier can legally 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.

Frequently asked questions about DEWITT EXCAVATING INC

Is DEWITT EXCAVATING INC licensed to operate?

The authority status on the federal record reads Active – Common Authority. That wording is quoted from the registration record rather than inferred, so it shows exactly which authorities the carrier holds and whether any revocation is in progress. The register is operated by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), and any revocation or suspension is recorded in the official snapshot.

Does DEWITT EXCAVATING INC 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. Request the actual certificate before any load moves, because this page mirrors 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 separates private carriers, who transport their own goods, from for-hire carriers. Here the private carrier flag is 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 freight does the company handle?

It is registered as a Freight Carrier. The property carrier flag is set to Yes, the passenger carrier flag reads No and the household goods carrier flag is set to No. Look at the household goods flag specifically if you are moving a move, because it needs its own federal authority and carries a different insurance profile.

How can I verify a carrier before booking?

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

What does USDOT 519705 mean?

USDOT is the federal operating number given to motor carriers in the United States. It is the most reliable identifier a carrier has, because company names get traded, rebranded and duplicated, whereas the USDOT number does not. Quote it when you request an insurance certificate, confirm authority, or file 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 matters for your load, open the official record for USDOT 519705 and review it there.

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