If you are a Trucking Company and want to cross State lines, you are required to have a Trucking Authority ( MC Authority).

ICC MC and MC Authority are the same thing. You will be issued a US DOT when your MC Authority is filed. Also, the new law is that every driver must have an ELD (electronic logging device) unless you are in the guidelines to be exempt.

Common Carrier Authority:
A Common Carrier provides "For-Hire" truck transportation to the general public. A Common Carrier must file both Liability insurance as well as Cargo Insurance.

If you are looking for a Household goods Authority (Moving Company), this is a different process. Contact us for more information.

BOC3 Legal Process Agents is a required filing on your Authority, which we already include in our price.

You will also need a USDOT approved Drug & Alcohol Program. Our plan is only $10/mo per driver

​

If you would like to file your authority, just complete the application below.

These rules include procedures for testing, frequency of tests, and substance tested for.

DRIVERS
Even though it is the responsibility of the employer to provide you with information on drug and alcohol testing programs, ultimately it is still your responsibility to obey all rules and regulation.

EMPLOYERS

 A Trucking authority requires minimum liability insurance, set by the FMCSA, to be at least $750,000 for non-hazardous loads and up to $5 million for hazardous materials. The amount required depends on the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) and the type of cargo hauled. Once insurance is obtained, the proof of insurance, often with the BMC-91 filing is sent to the FMCSA in order to activate your Authority. Your Authority will not activate without insurance.

We have insurance contacts if you need help, just send us an email or give us a call.

We do not do plates and we do not reccomend you paying someone to do them. We have seen people have serious problems with paying someone to get them for them for them. Some are being charged way too much, some do not receive them and some have also dealt with plates being held for additional fees. We believe you are best off obtaining these on your own. 

IRS 2290 is basically another tax

UCR is another fees for the States

The IRS 2290 & the UCR can be found on our online store under "shop"

Depending on what States you will be traveling through, there is a few States that require permits to drive through them.

These States are,

New Mexico

Kentucky

New York

Oregon (can be obtained at the border)

 Factoring (quick pay)
Factoring your invoices is a great way to make sure you keep money flowing to your bank account.

Why Factor?
Keeps money flowing into your account
The factoring company buys the invoice from you and they chase the money
You do not need to spend time doing collections on money owed
Free credit checks on the Companies you are working with
Some have discounts and fuel cards

You figure Brokers have 30 days to pay you. So, if you are out running, will you be able to afford to wait 30 days for each Broker to pay? Most trucking companies don't have that kind of fuel money just sitting in the bank, so factoring gets them paid fast.

Factoring is simple.  You check the company's credit that you are about to obtain the load with, book the load, deliver and send the paperwork to the factoring company and your money is in the bank 24-48 hours minus their fee.
