Out-of-Service Order May Have Been Lifted
FMCSA's out-of-service order file still lists an order from September 14, 2025 (New Entrant Revoked - Refusal of Audit/No Contact), but FMCSA's live registration system no longer showed this carrier out of service when checked on September 18, 2026. The order file often takes days to catch up. Confirm on FMCSA SAFER before booking.
