Reading the insurance rows. BI&PD means bodily injury and property damage liability, the coverage required to operate in the United States. Cargo insurance covers the freight itself, and the surety bond, generally a BMC-84, is the proof-of-financial-responsibility record. A carrier can be required to carry a policy that is not yet on file, so take any required-but-not-on-file line as grounds to request the certificate before you dispatch.

Frequently asked questions about JAMES E. FRETZ & SONS, LLC

Is JAMES E. FRETZ & SONS, LLC licensed to operate?

It currently holds the following federal authority status: Active – Common Authority. That wording is drawn from the registration record rather than inferred, so it shows exactly which authorities the carrier 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 shows up in the official snapshot.

Does JAMES E. FRETZ & SONS, LLC 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. Request the actual certificate before any load moves, because this page reflects 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 haul their own goods, from for-hire carriers. Here the private carrier flag is No and the enterprise flag reads No. This distinction matters when you need a dedicated or contracted asset rather than a spot quote.

What freight does the company handle?

It is registered as a Freight Carrier. The property carrier flag is set to Yes, the passenger carrier flag reads No and the household goods carrier flag reads No. Check the household goods flag if you are moving house, as it needs its own federal authority and carries 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, 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. Mismatches between a broker's paperwork and the federal record are the single most common source of freight fraud.

What does USDOT 2599697 mean?

USDOT is the federal operating identifier assigned to US motor carriers in the United States. It is the most dependable identifier a carrier has, since company names get traded, rebranded and duplicated, but the USDOT number stays constant. Use it when you ask for an insurance certificate, check authority, or make a freight claim.

Where can I find the safety scores for this carrier?

Safety and compliance data appears 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 2599697 and check it there.
