Reading the insurance rows. BI&PD is 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 filing. A carrier may be obliged to hold a policy that is not yet on file, so read any required but not on file line as grounds to request the certificate before you dispatch.

Does 5 D'S TRANSPORTATION 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. Ask for the certificate itself before a 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 shows No. It matters when you need a dedicated or contracted asset rather than a one-off spot quote.

What type of freight does the company handle?

This carrier is registered as a Freight Carrier.

How should I verify a carrier before booking?

Three checks, in order: look up the USDOT number and read 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. Mismatches between a broker's paperwork and the federal record are the single most common source of freight fraud.

What does USDOT 2458116 mean?

USDOT is the federal operating identifier assigned to US motor carriers in the United States.

Have it to hand when you ask for an insurance certificate, confirm authority, or file a freight claim.

Safety and compliance data is held 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 2458116 and read it there.
