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 applies to the freight being carried, and the surety bond, generally the 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 take any required but not on file line as a reason to ask for the certificate before you dispatch.

Does BIG PAPA TRANSPORTATION LLC carry insurance?

The record shows 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. Request the actual certificate before any load moves, because this page reflects the federal filing, which is not always updated the day a policy is issued.

Is the carrier an owner-operator or a fleet?

How should I verify a carrier before booking?

Three steps, in order: look up the USDOT number and verify 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.
