How to read the insurance lines. BI&PD stands for 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 a BMC-84, is the proof-of-financial-responsibility record. A carrier may be obliged to hold a policy that is not yet on file, so read any required but not on file line as a reason to request the certificate before you dispatch.

Frequently asked questions about TWIN TAIL TRANSPORT

Is TWIN TAIL TRANSPORT licensed to operate?

Its federal authority status is Active – Common Authority. That wording is drawn from the registration record rather than being inferred, which tells you 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 is recorded in the official snapshot.

Does TWIN TAIL TRANSPORT carry insurance?

The filing lists BI&PD liability on file at $750,000, against a federal minimum of $300,000. The entry shows cargo insurance as Not on file, and the surety bond is Not on file. Always ask for the actual certificate before any 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 haul 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?

It is registered as a Freight Carrier. The property carrier flag shows Yes, the passenger carrier flag shows No and the household goods carrier flag shows No. Check the household goods flag if you are relocating, because it requires separate federal authority and a different insurance profile.

How do I verify a carrier before booking?

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

What does USDOT 4512139 mean?

The USDOT number 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, but the USDOT number does not. Quote it when you ask for an insurance certificate, verify 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 is a deciding factor for your load, open the official record for USDOT 4512139 and check it there.
