What the insurance lines mean. BI&PD stands for 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, generally a BMC-84, is the proof-of-financial-responsibility filing. A carrier may be obliged to maintain 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.

Is GRAND ISLAND EXPRESS, INC licensed to operate?

It currently holds the following federal authority status: Active – Common, Contract & Broker Authority. That wording is drawn from the registration record rather than inferred, which tells you exactly which authorities the carrier 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 shows up in the official snapshot.

Does GRAND ISLAND 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 Not on file, and the surety bond is On file. Always ask for 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 this 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 is No and the enterprise flag shows No. That matters when you need a dedicated or contracted asset rather than a spot quote.

What freight does the company handle?

The carrier is registered as a Freight Carrier.

How do I verify a carrier before booking?

Three checks, in order: look up the USDOT number and read 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 most common source of freight fraud.

What does USDOT 54988 mean?

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

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 is a deciding factor for your load, open the official record for USDOT 54988 and check it there.
