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, generally the BMC-84, is the proof-of-financial-responsibility record. A carrier can legally be required to carry a policy that is not yet on file, so read any required but not on file line as grounds to request the certificate before you dispatch.

The filing lists BI&PD liability on file at $750,000, against a federal minimum of $750,000. 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 reflects the federal filing, which is not always updated the day a policy is issued.

Is this an owner-operator or a fleet?

The registration distinguishes 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?

How do I verify a carrier before booking?

Three checks, in order: look up the USDOT number and read the authority status, compare the insurance required against the insurance on file, and confirm that the phone number you are given matches the one published on the operator's own listing.

What does USDOT 1997020 mean?

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

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

Safety and compliance data is published through 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 1997020 and review it there.
