How to read the insurance lines. BI&PD means bodily injury and property damage liability, the cover a carrier must hold to operate in the United States. Cargo insurance applies to the freight being carried, and the surety bond, usually a BMC-84, is the proof-of-financial-responsibility record. A carrier can legally be required to maintain 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 PIONEER TANK LINES, INC.

Is PIONEER TANK LINES, INC. licensed to operate?

Its federal authority status is Active – Common & Contract Authority. That wording is taken from the registration record rather than inferred, which shows exactly which authorities the carrier holds and whether a 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 PIONEER TANK LINES, INC. carry insurance?

The filing lists BI&PD liability on file at $5,000,000, against a federal minimum of $5,000,000. The entry shows cargo insurance as 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 the day a policy is issued.

Owner-operator or a fleet?

The registration separates private carriers, who haul their own goods, from for-hire carriers. Here the private carrier flag shows 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?

The carrier is registered as a Freight Carrier. The property carrier flag shows Yes, the passenger carrier flag reads No and the household goods carrier flag reads No. Check the household goods flag in particular if you are relocating, as it requires separate federal authority and a different insurance profile.

How can I verify a carrier before booking?

Three steps, in order: check the USDOT number and read 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 124590 mean?

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

Have it to hand when you ask for an insurance certificate, confirm authority, or file a freight claim.

Are the safety scores for this carrier available?

Safety and compliance data is held 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 is a deciding factor for your load, open the official record for USDOT 124590 and read it there.
