Private Carriers

Call us at (765) 742-2610 for Private Carrier USDOT, UCR and IFTA

 

Private Carriers Crossing State Lines: Private Carriers hauling their own products across state lines are not required to register for Federal MC Authority / ICC Authority / Trucking Authority. However, Private Carriers crossing state lines may be required to register for a USDOT number, UCR - Unified Carrier Registration, register for an IRP license plate and IFTA fuel tax. If a Private Carrier transports it's own products outbound across state lines, then returns with items / loads the carrier gets paid to transport (to offset operating costs) at any weight, the carrier needs to register for Federal MC Authority and will be regarded as For-Hire. Not a problem. The only additional costs will be the registration costs. Call us to register you for MC Authority.
