Reading the insurance rows. BI&PD means 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, usually a BMC-84, is the proof-of-financial-responsibility filing. A carrier can be required to maintain 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.

Frequently asked questions about LAUTS INC

Is LAUTS INC licensed to operate?

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

Does LAUTS INC carry insurance?

The filing shows BI&PD liability on file at $1,000,000, against a federal minimum of $750,000. The entry shows cargo insurance as Not on file, and the surety bond is Not on file. Request the actual certificate before a load moves, because this page mirrors the federal filing, which is not always updated the day a policy is issued.

Is this an owner-operator or a fleet?

The registration distinguishes private carriers, who transport their own goods, from for-hire carriers. Here the private carrier flag shows No and the enterprise flag reads No. This distinction matters when you need a dedicated or contracted asset rather than a spot quote.

What type of freight does the company 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 is set to No. Check the household goods flag in particular if you are relocating, because it needs its own federal authority and carries a different insurance profile.

How can I verify a carrier before booking?

Three checks, in order: check the USDOT number and verify the authority status, compare 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 frequent source of freight fraud.

What does USDOT 998949 mean?

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

Are the safety scores for this carrier available?
