What this FMCSA record shows

  • Next biennial MCS-150 update due: June 2027 (set by USDOT 1208636's last two digits under 49 CFR 390.19). Last update filed February 9, 2004. That is more than two years ago, so this filing may be overdue; FMCSA can deactivate a USDOT number that misses its biennial update.
  • Registered with FMCSA in February 2004, about 22 years ago, so it is past the 18-month new-entrant period.
  • No roadside inspections in the last 24 months. That is common for new, small or local carriers, but it also means there is no out-of-service rate to judge. Ask for a current certificate of insurance and confirm active authority before tendering a load.
  • 381 other USDOT registrations list Royal Oak, MI as their physical address.
