What the insurance lines mean. BI&PD means bodily injury and property damage liability, the cover a carrier must hold 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 may be obliged to maintain 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 MDS TRANSPORT INC

Is MDS TRANSPORT INC licensed to operate?

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

Does MDS TRANSPORT INC carry insurance?

The filing lists 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. Always ask for 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 move their own goods, from for-hire carriers. Here the private carrier flag shows No and the enterprise flag shows No. It matters when you need a dedicated or contracted asset rather than a one-off spot quote.

What type of freight does the company handle?

The carrier is registered as a Freight Carrier. The property carrier flag reads Yes, the passenger carrier flag is set to No and the household goods carrier flag reads No. Check the household goods flag if you are moving a move, as it needs its own federal authority and carries a different insurance profile.

How should 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. Discrepancies between a broker's paperwork and the federal record are the most frequent source of freight fraud.

What does USDOT 4218361 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. Have it to hand when you ask for an insurance certificate, verify 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. If safety history matters for your load, open the official record for USDOT 4218361 and review it there.

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