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. The cargo policy covers the goods in transit, and the surety bond, generally the BMC-84, is the proof-of-financial-responsibility record. A carrier may be obliged to maintain a policy that is not yet on file, so read any required-but-not-on-file line as grounds to request the certificate before you dispatch.

Frequently asked questions about ASHLEY DISTRIBUTION SERVICES LLC

Is ASHLEY DISTRIBUTION SERVICES LLC licensed to operate?

It currently holds the following federal authority status: Active – Common & Contract Authority. That wording is quoted from the registration record rather than inferred, which 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 will appear in the official snapshot.

Does ASHLEY DISTRIBUTION SERVICES LLC carry insurance?

The record shows BI&PD liability on file at $12,000,000, 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 move their own goods, from for-hire carriers. Here the private carrier flag shows No and the enterprise flag reads 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?

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 house, as it needs its own federal authority and carries a different insurance profile.

How do I contact ASHLEY DISTRIBUTION SERVICES LLC?

The registered address is 1670 E 8TH AVENUE, Tampa FL 33605, United States. The company's own website is published on this page. The published opening hours appear above; ring inside those hours if you need to contact dispatch.

Phone: +1 813-603-5600

How do 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 most common source of freight fraud.

What does USDOT 546240 mean?

The USDOT number is the federal operating identifier 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, but the USDOT number does not. Have it to hand when you ask for an insurance certificate, verify authority, or file a freight claim.

Are the safety scores for this carrier available?

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 is a deciding factor for your load, open the official record for USDOT 546240 and review 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.
