What this FMCSA record shows

  • Next biennial MCS-150 update due: September 2028 (set by USDOT 850329's last two digits under 49 CFR 390.19). Last update filed March 4, 2024. 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 January 2000, about 26 years ago, so it is past the 18-month new-entrant period.
  • Reported 77,326 fleet miles in 2023, about 77,300 miles per power unit.
  • 2,435 other USDOT registrations list Brownsville, TX as their physical address.
