What the insurance lines mean. BI&PD is bodily injury and property damage liability, the coverage a carrier must carry to operate in the United States. The cargo policy covers the goods in transit, and the surety bond, generally the BMC-84, is the proof-of-financial-responsibility record. A carrier can legally be required to hold a policy that is not yet on file, so treat any required-but-not-on-file line as a reason to request the certificate before you dispatch.

Frequently asked questions about TJ'S TOWING OF SOMERS, INC.

Is TJ'S TOWING OF SOMERS, INC. licensed to operate?

It currently holds the following federal authority status: Active – Common Authority.

Does TJ'S TOWING OF SOMERS, INC. carry insurance?

The filing shows BI&PD liability on file at $1,000,000, against a federal minimum of $1,000,000. Cargo insurance reads Not 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 is 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 the company handle?

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

How should I verify a carrier before booking?

Three steps, in order: check 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 most common source of freight fraud.

What does USDOT 540996 mean?

The USDOT number is the federal operating number assigned to motor carriers in the United States. It is the most reliable identifier a carrier has, because company names get traded, rebranded and duplicated, whereas the USDOT number stays constant. Quote it when you request an insurance certificate, check authority, or file a freight claim.

Are safety scores available 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 540996 and review it there.
