Filings are the active or pending insurance policies FMCSA lists for this company; our copy refreshes nightly. Coverage amounts are not shown per policy.
From FMCSA's Safety Measurement System files, October 2024 to October 2026. Crash counts include crashes the carrier didn't cause. Out-of-service rates use only inspections that checked the driver or the vehicle.
Every roadside inspection in FMCSA's file for USDOT #3119077: when, where, and which vehicles (type, make, VIN) the inspector recorded.

Why it may matter: Fleet size shows roughly how big the operation is.
What it doesn't show: These are the company's own MCS-150 numbers, not a count FMCSA checked.
Next step: Nothing needed unless other details changed too.

New operating authority record
Carrier: Pending
Why it may matter: A new authority docket often means a new carrier or broker, or a company adding a new kind of authority.
What it doesn't show: A pending authority is not yet active and cannot be used to haul or broker loads.
Next step: Wait for authority to become active before booking, and check insurance on file.

Dates are when THC noticed the change in FMCSA's files, not when it happened, unless FMCSA's file gives the date. FMCSA's files can lag behind FMCSA's own systems. Check this record on FMCSA SAFER · Daily FMCSA change reports
