HazMat Intrastate Only
Marginal Provisional: the filed fleet isn't backed up by the roadside record (only 3 of the 10 filed power units were seen at a roadside inspection in 24 months), so the grade can't lean on this motor carrier's own history until the fleet size is confirmed. Intrastate fleets of 10–19 trucks in Michigan are rarely inspected (about 1 a year for every 11 trucks), so the roadside record can't confirm the fleet either way.

Insurance filed with FMCSA

Today · live FMCSA check
Checking FMCSA…

No MC, FF or MX docket on FMCSA's registration for this motor carrier, so there are no insurance filings to show. FMCSA collects filings only from registered for-hire authorities; other motor carriers keep proof of insurance (MCS-90) at their place of business.

FMCSA filings only, not a policy audit. Not part of the FRED grade. Wrong or out of date?
