How to read the insurance lines. BI&PD means 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, typically a BMC-84, is the proof-of-financial-responsibility record. A carrier can be required to maintain a policy that is not yet on file, so treat any required-but-not-on-file line as a reason to ask for the certificate before you dispatch.

Frequently asked questions about ALWAYS AFFORDABLE MOVING & STORAGE, INC.

Is ALWAYS AFFORDABLE MOVING & STORAGE, INC. licensed to operate?

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

Does ALWAYS AFFORDABLE MOVING & STORAGE, INC. carry insurance?

The filing lists 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. Request the actual certificate before a load moves, because this page reflects 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 haul their own goods, from for-hire carriers. Here the private carrier flag is No and the enterprise flag shows No. It 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 Trucking & Household Goods Carrier. The property carrier flag reads Yes, the passenger carrier flag reads No and the household goods carrier flag shows Yes. Look at the household goods flag specifically if you are moving a move, because it requires separate federal authority and a different insurance profile.

How should 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. Discrepancies between a broker's paperwork and the federal record are the single most common source of freight fraud.

What does USDOT 1458907 mean?

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

Where can I find the safety scores for this carrier?

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 1458907 and read it there.
