For landscapers, contractors, and every business that owns a truck
Your trucks made you a federally regulated motor carrier. Nobody told you.
If your business runs vehicles over 10,001 lbs, DOT rules apply to you — driver files, annual inspections, registration updates. Enter your USDOT number and get a free, plain-English report card in seconds.
What the free check tells you
Is your registration update overdue?
Every company with a USDOT number must re-file its MCS-150 at least every two years — even if nothing changed. Most small fleets have no idea. We check your actual filing date against your actual deadline.
What rules apply to your fleet
Driver qualification files, annual inspection records, drug-and-alcohol testing, vehicle markings — explained in plain English, with the exact regulation cited, scaled to your trucks and drivers.
What an audit would ask for
New companies get a federal safety audit in their first year, and any roadside inspection can trigger scrutiny. Know what's in the request letter before it arrives.
Where you already stand
It's not all warnings — the report also shows what you're doing right, so you know exactly which gaps are left and how big they are.
For fleets of 6 or more trucks
Don't manage this yourself. We set it up and run it.
At six, ten, twenty-five trucks, DOT compliance stops being a chore and starts being real exposure: audit fines, insurance premiums, contracts you can't bid because of your safety record. It also stops being something the owner should be tracking on a whiteboard.
FleetReady is a done-for-you compliance system. We stand it up, load every driver and vehicle, produce your audit binder, and monitor every deadline — driver files, inspections, registrations — with a quarterly compliance review so you can prove you're on top of it. One setup engagement, one monthly maintenance agreement, one Maryland-based person who answers the phone.
Whether you run 3 trucks or 30, know where you stand
DOT enforcement doesn't only happen to trucking companies. A dump truck, a crew truck with a heavy trailer, a skid steer on a gooseneck — cross 10,001 lbs combined and the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations apply, interstate or not in most states.
The rules are manageable. What hurts businesses is not knowing which ones apply until a roadside inspection, an accident, or an audit makes it expensive: out-of-service orders, civil penalties that run to five figures, and insurance consequences that outlast them all.
Fifteen seconds with your USDOT number tells you where you stand today.
