What the insurance lines mean. BI&PD is bodily injury and property damage liability, the cover a carrier must hold to operate in the United States. Cargo insurance covers the freight itself, 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 take any required but not on file line as grounds to request the certificate before you dispatch.

Is B&M AUTOMOTIVE AND TOWING licensed to operate?

Its federal authority status is Active – Common Authority. That wording is taken from the registration record rather than inferred, so it shows exactly which authorities the carrier currently holds and whether any revocation is in progress. The register is operated by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), and any revocation or suspension shows up in the official snapshot.

Does B&M AUTOMOTIVE AND TOWING carry insurance?

The filing shows BI&PD liability on file at $1,000,000, against a federal minimum of $1,000,000. Cargo insurance is recorded 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 shows Yes and the enterprise flag is 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?

This carrier is registered as a Freight Carrier.

How can I verify a carrier before booking?

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

What does USDOT 4511206 mean?

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

Quote it when you request an insurance certificate, check authority, or file a freight claim.

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 4511206 and read it there.
