Reading the insurance rows. BI&PD means bodily injury and property damage liability, the coverage a carrier must carry to operate in the United States. Cargo insurance covers the freight itself, and the surety bond, typically 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 treat any required but not on file line as a reason to request the certificate before you dispatch.

Does A.L. SMITH TRUCKING, INC. carry insurance?

The record 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.

Is the carrier 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 is No and the enterprise flag reads No. That matters when you need a dedicated or contracted asset rather than a one-off spot quote.

What type of freight does this carrier handle?

How should I verify a carrier before booking?

Three steps, 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. Gaps between a broker's paperwork and the federal record are the most frequent source of freight fraud.

What does USDOT 28525 mean?

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

Have it to hand when you ask for an insurance certificate, check 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. If safety history is a deciding factor for your load, open the official record for USDOT 28525 and read it there.
