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 applies to the freight being carried, and the surety bond, generally the 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 treat any required but not on file line as a reason to request the certificate before you dispatch.

Frequently asked questions about PURITAN DISTRIBUTION INC

Is PURITAN DISTRIBUTION INC licensed to operate?

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

Does PURITAN DISTRIBUTION INC carry insurance?

The record shows BI&PD liability on file at $1,500,000, against a federal minimum of $1,500,000. Cargo insurance is recorded as Not on file, and the surety bond is Not on file. Request the actual certificate before a load moves, because this page mirrors 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 reads No and the enterprise flag shows No. That matters when you need a dedicated or contracted asset rather than a one-off spot quote.

What freight does the company handle?

This carrier is registered as a Passenger Carrier. The property carrier flag shows No, the passenger carrier flag is set to Yes and the household goods carrier flag reads No. Look at the household goods flag specifically if you are relocating, because it requires separate federal authority and a different insurance profile.

How do 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. Gaps between a broker's paperwork and the federal record are the most frequent source of freight fraud.

What does USDOT 1323772 mean?

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

Where can I find the safety scores 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. Where safety history is decisive, open the official record for USDOT 1323772 and check it there.
