Before You Register

What You Need for Carrier Setup

Gather these items before you start, and you can usually finish the carrier packet in one sitting. The registration portal lists the exact documents requested for your company.

USDOT Number

Registration starts with your USDOT number, not your MC number. The portal uses it to look up your company.

Active Operating Authority

Your motor carrier operating authority should be active for the type of freight you plan to haul.

Certificate of Insurance

Have your current certificate of insurance on hand, along with your insurance agent’s contact information.

Completed W-9

Use the same legal business name and taxpayer identification number that appear on your FMCSA registration.

Company Contacts

Phone numbers and email addresses for dispatch, billing, and safety, so our team reaches the right person the first time.

Equipment and Lanes

Trailer types and lengths, your home base, and preferred lanes help Carrier Operations match you with suitable freight.
