MC number lookup
Type an MC or USDOT number. You get the carrier's FMCSA record in plain English, free, no account needed.
What you'll see
- Authority status, and the date a pending suspension takes effect if FMCSA has served notice. SAFER still shows "Active" until that day.
- Insurance on file against the federal minimum, and any cancellation an insurer has filed.
- Look-alike companies: other USDOT numbers with the same phone, email or address, and FMCSA's link to previously revoked companies.
- Contact changes we've seen, with dates. Sign in (free) to see the phone and email on file.
- The FMCSA dataset and field behind every fact, so you can check it yourself.
Then, if you book the load: save a dated vetting record (a permanent, printable copy of what FMCSA showed at that moment), or watch the carrier and hear the day anything changes.
