Reading the insurance rows. BI&PD is bodily injury and property damage liability, the cover a carrier must hold 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 can legally be required to maintain a policy that is not yet on file, so treat any required-but-not-on-file line as a reason to request the certificate before you dispatch.

Does UNITED GROUNDLINES INC carry insurance?

The filing shows BI&PD liability on file at $750,000, against a federal minimum of $750,000. Cargo insurance is recorded 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.

Owner-operator or a fleet?

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

What freight does the company handle?

This carrier is registered as a Freight Carrier.

How can 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.

What does USDOT 2779867 mean?
