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. Cargo insurance applies to the freight being carried, and the surety bond, usually the BMC-84, is the proof-of-financial-responsibility record. A carrier can legally be required to carry a policy that is not yet on file, so take any required-but-not-on-file line as a reason to request the certificate before you dispatch.

Frequently asked questions about BENTON FOUNDRY, INC.

Is BENTON FOUNDRY, INC. licensed to operate?

The authority status on the federal record reads Inactive. That wording is taken from the registration record rather than being inferred, which shows exactly which authorities the carrier currently 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 will appear in the official snapshot.

Does BENTON FOUNDRY, INC. 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 a load moves, because this page reflects the federal filing, which is not always updated the day a policy is issued.

Is this an owner-operator or a fleet?

The registration separates private carriers, who move 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 spot quote.

What type of freight does this carrier handle?

This carrier is registered as a Freight Carrier. The property carrier flag reads Yes, the passenger carrier flag reads No and the household goods carrier flag shows No. Look at the household goods flag specifically if you are relocating, as 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. Gaps between a broker's paperwork and the federal record are the most frequent source of freight fraud.

What does USDOT 109151 mean?

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

Quote it when you ask for an insurance certificate, verify authority, or file 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 109151 and read it there.
