Out of Service Order
FMCSA has placed this carrier out of service since June 8, 2026. FMCSA's stated reason: 90 day failure to pay fine. It may not legally operate. Do not tender freight to this carrier until the order is lifted.
Elevated Out-of-Service Rate
66.7% of this carrier's roadside inspections in the last 24 months put a driver or vehicle out of service — higher than 97% of carriers with a comparable number of inspections. Drivers were put out of service on 37.5% of 8 driver inspections — higher than 92% of carriers with a comparable number of driver inspections (national average 5.5%). This is a CarrierChk calculation from FMCSA inspection records, not an FMCSA rating.
No Active Operating Authority
FMCSA does not show active operating authority for this carrier. A carrier without it cannot legally haul interstate for-hire freight.

Names are as entered at the roadside; blanks and placeholders such as “N/A” or “same as carrier” are left out.
