How to read the insurance lines. 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 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 take any required but not on file line as a reason to request the certificate before you dispatch.

Is UNIVERSAL BUS SERVICE LLC licensed to operate?

It currently holds the following federal authority status: Active – Common Authority. That wording is taken from the registration record rather than being inferred, which tells you exactly which authorities the carrier currently holds and whether a 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 UNIVERSAL BUS SERVICE LLC carry insurance?

The filing shows BI&PD liability on file at $5,000,000, against a federal minimum of $5,000,000. Cargo insurance is recorded as Not on file, and the surety bond is Not on file. Request the actual certificate before any 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 move 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 one-off spot quote.

What freight does the company handle?

How can I verify a carrier before booking?

Three steps, in order: check 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.
