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 the BMC-84, is the proof-of-financial-responsibility filing. A carrier may be obliged to carry a policy that is not yet on file, so read any required-but-not-on-file line as a reason to ask for the certificate before you dispatch.

Is S & S SALES & SERVICE CENTER INC. licensed to operate?

Its federal authority status is Active – Common Authority. That wording is quoted from the registration record rather than inferred, which tells you 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 is recorded in the official snapshot.

Does S & S SALES & SERVICE CENTER INC. carry insurance?

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

What freight does the company handle?

How should I verify a carrier before booking?

Three steps, in order: check the USDOT number and verify 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. Discrepancies between a broker's paperwork and the federal record are the single most common source of freight fraud.

What does USDOT 651750 mean?

The USDOT number is the federal operating number given to US motor carriers in the United States. It is the most dependable identifier a carrier has, because company names get traded, rebranded and duplicated, but the USDOT number does not. Quote it when you request an insurance certificate, verify authority, or make 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. Where safety history is decisive, open the official record for USDOT 651750 and review it there.

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 wrong, or you are a shipper who has spotted an error, please tell us and we will look into it.
