FMCSA insurance file as of November 15, 2026.
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 authority history (its current Motus system, plus the older L&I history it froze on May 14, 2026). "First granted" is the earliest grant on record; "on record since" is the earliest action FMCSA has when the grant itself is older than its electronic records. "Active since" is the latest grant or reinstatement, so a lapse that FMCSA reinstated restarts the clock.
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 #8949561: when, where, and which vehicles (type, make, VIN) the inspector recorded.
THC compares FMCSA's files every night and keeps what changed. Tracked since October 30, 2026, last compared November 15, 2026.

MC number added
None → MC 63176682
Why it may matter: The MC (docket) number is what brokers and shippers use to check operating authority.
What it doesn't show: Having an MC number does not mean its authority is active.
Next step: Check the authority status for the new MC number.

Authority granted
FMCSA dates the grant November 8, 2026
Why it may matter: Newly granted authority means the company is just starting that kind of work.
What it doesn't show: A grant date says nothing about how the company operates.
Next step: Check that insurance (or a broker's bond) is on file.

Motor carrier operating authority changed
Pending → Active
Why it may matter: Authority status decides what interstate for-hire work a company may legally do.
What it doesn't show: FMCSA's daily file shows the status, not the reason (for example missing insurance, a request by the company, or an order).
Next step: Run a live check, and confirm with the company using the phone number on its FMCSA record.
