Check a carrier before you tender the load
Enter a USDOT or MC number. You get the FMCSA record in one place: authority status and history, insurance on file and cancellations, out-of-service and revocation orders, safety measures, how stale the MCS-150 is, and whether the phone or address changed lately — every line cited to the dataset and its date.
Free preview shows status, authority, and what the record holds. The $49 report has the detail.

What the full report gets you
FMCSA publishes everything below, across four portals, one record at a time, with no history. We pull it daily and lay it out per carrier. Brokers use it to catch the three things that cost loads: a carrier whose authority or insurance quietly lapsed, a brand-new authority that looks like an old company, and a contact who doesn't match the record.
- Authority — active / inactive / pending per docket, plus the grant, reinstatement and revocation history.
- Insurance — BIPD, cargo and bond filings on file, the insurer, effective dates, and scheduled or recent cancellations.
- Orders — out-of-service orders (and rescissions), revocation and suspension notices with serve and effective dates.
- Safety — SMS BASIC measures and alerts, inspection and out-of-service counts.
- Registration hygiene — MCS-150 age, undeliverable-address flag, prior revoked USDOT link, fleet size and mileage.
- Contact churn — phone, email, address or officer changes we observed between census pulls, and a plain count of other active USDOT numbers listing the same phone or street address.
This is an informational report compiled from public FMCSA records as of the stamped date. It is not a safety rating, not insurance or legal advice, and not a recommendation to use or avoid any carrier. FMCSA records can be late or incomplete; confirm anything decisive against the official record linked in the report.
