What the insurance lines mean. 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, usually the BMC-84, is the proof-of-financial-responsibility filing. A carrier may be obliged to hold a policy that is not yet on file, so read any required-but-not-on-file line as a reason to ask for the certificate before you dispatch.

Frequently asked questions about JOPLIN WORKSHOPS INC

Is JOPLIN WORKSHOPS INC licensed to operate?

It currently holds the following federal authority status: Active – Common Authority. That wording is taken from the registration record rather than inferred, so it shows exactly which authorities the carrier currently 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 JOPLIN WORKSHOPS INC carry insurance?

The filing shows BI&PD liability on file at $750,000, against a federal minimum of $750,000. Cargo insurance is recorded as On file, and the surety bond is Not on file. Always ask for the actual certificate before a load moves, because this page reflects the federal filing, which is not always updated on the same day a policy is issued.

Owner-operator or a fleet?

The registration distinguishes private carriers, who move 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 spot quote.

What type of freight does this carrier handle?

The carrier is registered as a Freight Carrier. The property carrier flag reads 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 moving house, as it requires separate federal authority and a different insurance profile.

How should I verify a carrier before booking?

Three checks, 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. Mismatches between a broker's paperwork and the federal record are the single most common source of freight fraud.

What does USDOT 550266 mean?

USDOT is the federal operating identifier assigned to US motor carriers in the United States. It is the most reliable identifier a carrier has, since company names get traded, rebranded and duplicated, but the USDOT number does not. Use it when you request an insurance certificate, check 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 550266 and read it there.

Information on this page is drawn 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 check it.
