What the insurance lines mean. BI&PD is bodily injury and property damage liability, the cover a carrier must hold to operate in the United States. Cargo insurance covers the freight itself, and the surety bond, typically a BMC-84, is the proof-of-financial-responsibility record. A carrier can be required to hold a policy that is not yet on file, so treat any required-but-not-on-file line as a reason to request the certificate before you dispatch.

Does M & S EXPRESS, 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. Request the actual certificate before any load moves, because this page reflects 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 distinguishes private carriers, who haul their own goods, from for-hire carriers. Here the private carrier flag is No and the enterprise flag is No. That matters when you need a dedicated or contracted asset rather than a spot quote.

What type of freight does this carrier handle?

How can 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 confirm that the phone number you are given matches the one published on the operator's own listing.

What does USDOT 1278344 mean?

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