What the insurance lines mean. BI&PD stands for 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, generally a 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 a reason to request the certificate before you dispatch.

Frequently asked questions about FIRSTEXPRESS, INC.

Is FIRSTEXPRESS, INC. licensed to operate?

The authority status on the federal record reads Active – Common, Contract & Broker Authority. That wording is taken from the registration record rather than inferred, which tells you exactly which authorities the carrier currently holds and whether a revocation is in progress. The registration is operated by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), and any revocation or suspension is recorded in the official snapshot.

Does FIRSTEXPRESS, INC. carry insurance?

The record 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 On file. Request 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 distinguishes private carriers, who haul 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 the company handle?

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

How should I verify a carrier before booking?

Three steps, in order: check the USDOT number and verify the authority status, check the insurance required against the insurance on file, and confirm 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 common source of freight fraud.

What does USDOT 557151 mean?

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

Have it to hand when you request an insurance certificate, verify authority, or file a freight claim.

Are safety scores available 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. Where safety history is decisive, open the official record for USDOT 557151 and review it there.
