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 be required to hold 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.

Is the carrier an owner-operator or a fleet?

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

How can I verify a carrier before booking?

Three checks, in order: look up the USDOT number and read the authority status, check 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.

What does USDOT 2319819 mean?
