How to read the insurance lines. BI&PD is bodily injury and property damage liability, the cover a carrier must hold to operate in the United States. The cargo policy covers the goods in transit, and the surety bond, typically a BMC-84, is the proof-of-financial-responsibility filing. A carrier may be obliged to carry 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 DIAL-A-MOVE, INC.

Is DIAL-A-MOVE, INC. licensed to operate?

The authority status on the federal record reads Active – Common & Contract Authority. That wording is drawn from the registration record rather than inferred, which tells you exactly which authorities the carrier 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 shows up in the official snapshot.

Does DIAL-A-MOVE, INC. carry insurance?

The filing shows BI&PD liability on file at $1,000,000, against a federal minimum of $1,000,000. Cargo insurance reads On file, and the surety bond is Not on file. Request the actual certificate before a load moves, because this page mirrors the federal filing, which is not always updated on the same day a policy is issued.

Is the carrier an owner-operator or a fleet?

The registration distinguishes private carriers, who move their own goods, from for-hire carriers. Here the private carrier flag shows No 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 Household Goods Carrier. The property carrier flag reads No, the passenger carrier flag reads No and the household goods carrier flag shows Yes. Check the household goods flag if you are relocating, because it needs its own federal authority and carries a different insurance profile.

How do I verify a carrier before booking?

Three checks, in order: check the USDOT number and read the authority status, compare 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 885778 mean?

USDOT is the federal operating identifier assigned to motor carriers in the United States. It is the most reliable identifier a carrier has, because company names get traded, rebranded and duplicated, whereas the USDOT number does not. Quote it when you ask for an insurance certificate, check authority, or file a freight claim.

Where can I find the safety scores for this carrier?

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 matters for your load, open the official record for USDOT 885778 and read it there.

Information on this page is drawn from the official federal carrier record and from the operator's published business listing. If you are the carrier and something here is inaccurate, or you are a shipper who has spotted an error, please tell us and we will look into it.
