What this FMCSA record shows
- Next biennial MCS-150 update due: May 2027 (set by USDOT 1516915's last two digits under 49 CFR 390.19). Last update filed June 18, 2006. 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 June 2006, about 20 years ago, so it is past the 18-month new-entrant period.
- Reported 10,000 fleet miles in 2005, about 10,000 miles per power unit.
- 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.
- 104 other USDOT registrations list Ghent, NY as their physical address.
