Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) provides authorized for-hire motor carrier, freight forwarder and property broker licensing and insurance data to the industry and public via telephone requests and paper reports.

Licensing application and insurance information will appear on this web site as soon as it is manually entered into the L&I database by FMCSA staff or electronically filed by authorized insurance filers.
