Motor Carrier Authority

Description

Secure Your Operating Authority
Now that you’ve got your truck and formed your business entity, it’s time to take the next important step—getting your operating authority. Also known as Motor Carrier Authority or Interstate Trucking Authority, it’s essential for for-hire carriers transporting passengers or regulated freight across state lines.

What’s Included in Our $499 Package?

• ✔ FMCSA Filing Fee ($300 value)
  This mandatory fee goes directly to the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), and we include it in our total price.
• ✔ USDOT Number
  We’ll assign your company a unique USDOT Number. If your vehicle exceeds 10,001 lbs (GVWR, GCWR, GVW, or GCW) and you haul for-hire freight, this number is required.
• ✔ MC Number
  We’ll get your Motor Carrier Number, which allows your business to legally operate across state lines. This number links to your USDOT registration and enables interstate trucking.
• ✔ BOC-3 Filing
  Our team files your BOC-3 form for free. As registered processing agents, we take care of this critical requirement to activate your authority.

Do You Actually Need Operating Authority?
Still unsure about your next step? Call our experts at 908-864-0311. We’ll help you understand your requirements and guide you in the right direction.

What Happens After You Place an Order?
Once you place your order, our team will reach out to gather your business name, EIN, and address.

We’ll quickly process your USDOT and MC Numbers:

Your DOT number becomes active immediately, allowing you to operate intrastate.

Your MC number activates after the FMCSA’s 21-day public vetting period.

During this time, we’ll help you secure proper insurance and complete your Unified Carrier Registration (UCR) to ensure full compliance.

What Comes Next?
Once your authority becomes active, you’ll go through a new entrant safety audit. We also provide assistance to help you pass it with confidence.
