Reading the insurance rows. BI&PD stands for bodily injury and property damage liability, the coverage required to operate in the United States. Cargo insurance covers the freight itself, and the surety bond, generally a BMC-84, is the proof-of-financial-responsibility filing. A carrier can be required to carry a policy that is not yet on file, so take any required but not on file line as a reason to ask for the certificate before you dispatch.

Frequently asked questions about LINT VAN LINES, INC.

Is LINT VAN LINES, INC. licensed to operate?

Its federal authority status is Active – Common Authority. That wording is quoted from the registration record rather than inferred, which shows exactly which authorities the carrier currently holds and whether any revocation is in progress. The register is maintained by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), and any revocation or suspension shows up in the official snapshot.

Does LINT VAN LINES, INC. carry insurance?

The record shows BI&PD liability on file at $1,000,000, against a federal minimum of $750,000. Cargo insurance reads On file, and the surety bond is Not on file. Always ask for the actual certificate before a load moves, because this page reflects 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 separates private carriers, who transport their own goods, from for-hire carriers. Here the private carrier flag is No and the enterprise flag reads No. It 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 Trucking & Household Goods Carrier. The property carrier flag is set to Yes, the passenger carrier flag shows No and the household goods carrier flag reads Yes. Check the household goods flag if you are moving a move, because it needs its own federal authority and carries a different insurance profile.

How should I verify a carrier before booking?

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

What does USDOT 543541 mean?

USDOT is the federal operating identifier assigned to US motor carriers in the United States. It is the most reliable identifier a carrier has, since company names get traded, rebranded and duplicated, whereas the USDOT number does not. Have it to hand when you ask for an insurance certificate, confirm authority, or file a freight claim.

Are safety scores available for this carrier?

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. If safety history is a deciding factor for your load, open the official record for USDOT 543541 and check it there.

Information on this page is compiled from the official federal carrier record and from the operator's published business listing. If you are the carrier and something here is inaccurate, or you are a shipper who has spotted an error, please tell us and we will check it.
