How to verify a shipping broker?

nayof

Found a quote for shipping my Jayco, but how do I verify their USDOT and MC numbers? I want to ensure they are licensed and bonded before I hand over the keys for a long-distance haul.

To verify a shipping broker, visit the official FMCSA SAFER website and enter their USDOT or MC numbers into the Company Snapshot tool. This database confirms their "Active" operating status and whether they hold the required $75,000 surety bond. A legitimate broker should also provide a physical business address and clear insurance documentation. Checking their safety rating and industry history ensures you aren’t dealing with a "ghost" operator. For secure and professional logistics, you can rely on the vetted network at Monarch TG https://monarchtg.com/rv-transport-service/ , which connects you with licensed experts specializing in safe, long-distance RV hauling.
