Trucking Startup: DOT Number​

Get a DOT Number now!

The first step in starting a trucking company that operates Commercial Motor Vehicles (CMVs) transporting passengers or hauling cargo in interstate commerce is obtaining a DOT Number.

The USDOT Number serves as a unique identifier when collecting and monitoring a company’s safety information acquired during audits, compliance reviews, crash investigations, and inspections.

Who needs a USDOT Number?

Obtaining a USDOT Number can be confusing and costly if you don’t know what you’re doing. Our team of Compliance Specialists can obtain your USDOT Number quickly and accurately. 

The payment form below will have one of our licensing specialists obtain your DOT Number ASAP.

What steps are we taking for you?

Our DOT Licensing Specialists will apply for your DOT Number for you, file all of the paperwork, and even help you choose a name for your company, if you haven’t already.

Our DOT Licensing Specialists will help you apply for your MC Number or Operating Authority at the same time as your DOT Number. At this point you should know if you need an MC Number. If you are starting a trucking company and hauling cargo, you need one.

Our DOT Licensing Specialists will help you with every aspect of starting a trucking company. All you need to do is choose a name for your trucking company.
