How to read the insurance lines. BI&PD stands for bodily injury and property damage liability, the coverage required to operate in the United States. Cargo insurance applies to the freight being carried, and the surety bond, generally a BMC-84, is the proof-of-financial-responsibility record. A carrier can be required to carry 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.

Frequently asked questions about CATEGO TRUCKING CORP

Is CATEGO TRUCKING CORP licensed to operate?

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

Does CATEGO TRUCKING CORP carry insurance?

The filing shows 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 mirrors 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 distinguishes private carriers, who move their own goods, from for-hire carriers. Here the private carrier flag shows No and the enterprise flag is No. That matters when you need a dedicated or contracted asset rather than a spot quote.

What type of freight does this carrier handle?

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

How do I verify a carrier before booking?

Three checks, in order: check the USDOT number and verify 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 frequent source of freight fraud.

What does USDOT 2861320 mean?

USDOT is the federal operating identifier assigned to US motor carriers in the United States. It is the most dependable identifier a carrier has, since company names get traded, rebranded and duplicated, whereas the USDOT number does not. Have it to hand when you ask for an insurance certificate, check authority, or file a freight claim.

Are the safety scores for this carrier available?

Safety and compliance data is published through 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 2861320 and review it there.
