Our read on this carrier
Worth a Closer Look
A few things are worth checking before you hire this carrier or give them a load.
Looks fine ! Worth checking × A real concern
Authority was revoked at some point in the past
This carrier's license was revoked and later reinstated. Some "chameleon carriers" re-register under a new identity to escape a bad safety record, so this is worth a closer look.
1 other trucking company use this same address
This can be perfectly normal (a shared business park or mailbox) — but it can also point to related or shell companies. Confirm the address if anything else looks off.
Not on any U.S. sanctions list
This carrier's name doesn't appear on the U.S. Treasury sanctions blocklist — clear to work with on that basis.
Licensed and authorized to operate
The FMCSA lists this carrier as having active operating authority right now.

These checks use public U.S. government records — the carrier's license status, safety-inspection and crash history, ownership links, and the U.S. Treasury sanctions list — refreshed automatically. A flag doesn't prove wrongdoing; it's a prompt to verify before you do business.
