What the insurance lines mean. BI&PD means 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 be required to carry a policy that is not yet on file, so read any required but not on file line as a reason to request the certificate before you dispatch.

Frequently asked questions about PA PORTNER INC

Is PA PORTNER INC licensed to operate?

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

Does PA PORTNER INC carry insurance?

The filing shows 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. Always ask for the actual certificate before a load moves, because this page mirrors the federal filing, which is not always updated on the same day a policy is issued.

Is the carrier an owner-operator or a fleet?

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

What type of freight does this carrier handle?

It 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 is set to Yes. Check the household goods flag if you are moving a move, as it requires separate federal authority and a different insurance profile.

How do I verify a carrier before booking?

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

What does USDOT 4047014 mean?

USDOT 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 stays constant. Use it when you request an insurance certificate, confirm authority, or make a freight claim.

Are safety scores available for this carrier?

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 matters for your load, open the official record for USDOT 4047014 and read 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 wrong, or you are a shipper who has spotted an error, please tell us and we will look into it.
