How to read the insurance lines. BI&PD stands for bodily injury and property damage liability, the coverage required to operate in the United States. The cargo policy covers the goods in transit, and the surety bond, usually a BMC-84, is the proof-of-financial-responsibility filing. A carrier can be required to maintain 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.

Frequently asked questions about RICHARD LYNN MEDFORD

Is RICHARD LYNN MEDFORD licensed to operate?

The authority status on the federal record reads Active – Common Authority. That wording is drawn from the registration record rather than inferred, which tells you exactly which authorities the carrier currently holds and whether a revocation is in progress. The registration is operated by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), and any revocation or suspension will appear in the official snapshot.

Does RICHARD LYNN MEDFORD carry insurance?

The filing shows BI&PD liability on file at $750,000, against a federal minimum of $750,000. The entry shows cargo insurance as Not on file, and the surety bond is Not on file. Ask for the certificate itself before any load moves, because this page mirrors 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 is No. This distinction 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 is set to Yes, the passenger carrier flag shows No and the household goods carrier flag is set to No. Check the household goods flag in particular if you are relocating, as it requires separate federal authority and a different insurance profile.

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

What does USDOT 3691860 mean?

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

Have it to hand when you request an insurance certificate, verify authority, or make a freight claim.

Safety and compliance data is held in the FMCSA's carrier snapshot rather than on this page, and it is only available for carriers that have been inspected. Where safety history is decisive, open the official record for USDOT 3691860 and check it there.
