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. Cargo insurance applies to the freight being carried, and the surety bond, typically 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 grounds to request the certificate before you dispatch.

Does SHOESTRING ENTERPRISES, INC. carry insurance?

The record shows BI&PD liability on file at $750,000, against a federal minimum of $750,000. Cargo insurance reads Not on file, and the surety bond is Not on file. Request the actual certificate before a load moves, because this page mirrors the federal filing, which is not always updated the 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 is No and the enterprise flag reads No. This distinction 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 is set to Yes, the passenger carrier flag reads No and the household goods carrier flag shows No. Look at the household goods flag specifically if you are moving a move, because it needs its own federal authority and carries a different insurance profile.

How can I verify a carrier before booking?

Three steps, 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. Gaps between a broker's paperwork and the federal record are the most common source of freight fraud.

What does USDOT 1383977 mean?

Use it when you request an insurance certificate, verify authority, or make a freight claim.

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 1383977 and check it there.
