What this FMCSA record shows
- Next biennial MCS-150 update due: March 2028 (set by USDOT 281483's last two digits under 49 CFR 390.19). Last update filed March 14, 2023. 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 November 1986, about 39 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.
- 48,948 other USDOT registrations list Houston, TX as their physical address.
