Other: RECYCLING MATERIAL Garbage/Refuse

Estimated from the commodity types reported to FMCSA, not from loss history or the true cargo mix.

Mileage Unreliable

MCS-150 annual mileage appears too low for fleet size given observed activity. The per-100k-mile rate benchmarks on this page are excluded; the FRED grade does not use mileage (crash exposure is power-unit-years, violation exposure is inspection counts).

Expected crash rate is probably lower than similar fleets (about a 70% chance), but the record is too thin to say by how much.

Similar fleets: interstate fleets of 20–49 trucks with the same kind of operation, years in business and amount of road activity. Compared using its own crash record and roadside inspections.

What's driving the grade
Crash history
betterworse
Lower so far, not yet proven. 1 crash on the FMCSA record in 24 months (about 0.5 a year); similar fleets have about 0.9 a year. Too short a record to be sure, so the grade counts its crash record as about 13% below typical. The grade counts 2 crashes in its 36-month scoring window, recent ones weighted most.
Roadside inspections
betterworse
Mixed. Out-of-service orders 1.34× the rate expected for its inspections, but unsafe-driving and hours-of-service violations 0.64×. Together they barely move its crash estimate: roadside results weigh far less than crash history.

Worth a closer look

From the FMCSA record. The grade already counts the safety items; insurance filings and links to other motor carriers are not in it.

  • Driver qualification
    3 out-of-service violations against drivers: 3 no valid CDL (Nov 2024 – Nov 2025).
    Ask: driver qualification files and hiring standards.
  • Driver out-of-service rate
    16.7% of driver inspections end out of service vs 6.7% nationally (2 of 12). Across all its inspections, out-of-service orders run 1.34× what's expected for where and how it's inspected.
Strengths
  • 1 crash in 24 months. No injuries, no fatalities.
  • No FMCSA BASIC alerts.
Data flags
  • Unreliable reported mileage
    The motor carrier's self-reported annual mileage (MCS-150) looks implausible, so exposure- and mileage-based figures may be distorted.
  • Estimated mileage
    No usable mileage was reported, so exposure was estimated from similar motor carriers. Mileage-based metrics here are approximate.

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?
