What the insurance lines mean. BI&PD stands for 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 be required to maintain a policy that is not yet on file, so take any required but not on file line as a reason to request the certificate before you dispatch.

The registration is operated by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), and any revocation or suspension will appear in the official snapshot.

Does ARNOLD C AGAR JR carry insurance?

The record shows BI&PD liability on file at $1,000,000, 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 a load moves, because this page reflects the federal filing, which is not always updated on the same day a policy is issued.

Owner-operator or a fleet?

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

What type of freight does the company handle?

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

How do I verify a carrier before booking?

Three steps, in order: check the USDOT number and read the authority status, compare 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 most common source of freight fraud.

What does USDOT 888300 mean?

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

Have it to hand when you request an insurance certificate, confirm authority, or make a freight claim.

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