Thank you so much for your teaching and service; moreover, I would’ve paid $800 for someone else to file it. Oscar you saved me $500 and much more you gave me knowledge about fmcsa.
If I'm a current Broker under another entity should I list that DOT and MC number?( I want my Carrier Authority under my other company name.)
Hi Oscar
My husband and I are starting this business together, do I have to list my husband under Business description or just my name and the DOT /MC will cover both of us?
@@tammyjohnson1017 cover both of you ! Make him a 1099 contractor or w-2 employeee

Thank you so much for this video. I walked through step-by-step with your video as I completed my FMCSA application for my authority.
I just got my DOT because of your video. This is the best video out here for someone just starting in the trucking business and wanting to do everything on their so they can to save money.
Thank you so much! I was stuck on a section of the site you covered and you provided insight into so many definitions. Great video!
You were really helpful Thank you so much, May your day be blessed in 100 folds May your children be great in life Amen
Hey man thank you so much for this video. Although my business is for freight Broker your video really help me a lot to get started and better understanding of the application process. This was a lot of work on your part and all of us who find your video useful are forever thankful for your dedication to it. Kudos
You're very professional and you made it look very easy especially for someone like me planning to start trucking business soon thank u sir 🙏
Oscar, thank you for taking your time to make this video to help others. This video was extremely helpful to myself, and my company. You're awesome buddy, much appreciated! Happy Truckin!
Appreciate that thank you!
Also I would like to thank you for getting me through the application, it was just like being in an online class and it helped me tremendously. YOU ROCK
Hi Charlene, unfortunately if you forget your passwords and have not completed the application you will have to start over.
Just wanted to say thank you because I just filled my application out by literally having the phone next to me watching this video so thank you very much I greatly appreciate it. 🙏
Dude, I've watched videos on here for the past 1-2 months and this is hands down the best video and your knowledge on this is incredible, I appreciate you, and I will be in contact.
Thank you for posting such a detailed description. It truly guided me through the whole process.
I'm so glad I found this before I finished my DOT & MC, by far best video out there
Update? Is your authority working now
You are correct maintenance is the key even if you bring it to the dealers some of them don't do there job so you have to check them constantly
Getting ready to start a Box Truck business and this was absolutely straight forward positive & helpful. Thank you
yooo how’s it going?
I literally just finished applying, by following your step by step instructions… and got my DOT/MC within 10 minutes of submitting the application. It doesn’t get any better than that. 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
I fill out this application today and I got my usdot number do I need to fill out anything else to get Mc number
@@danielstojmirski486 You can do both at the same time. You can also do the DOT now and the MC later. In this application it will ask you about interstate hauling, that is the route to get your MC # as a motor carrier.
Hey! I got to the last screen Register for Company Official FMCSA Portal Account and it won't take the User Id can you help?
@@cadienm9064 same happened to me and instead i enter my email
I'm trying to do it right now. I'm at the last part where I have to register for fmcsa portal and I have to put a user ID. I tried to enter the one I was given like he did and it wouldn't let me proceed. I then tried making up another one and the "next" button was still not available for me. Any ideas on what to do?
That's really a very helpful video. You're so good in explaining every step thoroughly!!!! I've never seen such thing before. Thanks a lot
Yooo! This is one of the most helpful videos ever!!! Thanks for this!!
very much appreciate you for this video!!!! I have needed help with this for almost a year and finally got all the information I needed. I followed you step by step now i finally have my Dot an Mc numbers. again thank you very much !!!
You're so knowledgeable man! Thank You!
Poppin video. Intimidated at first cause it was an hour long but after 5 minutes, I was locked in 🔐. I salute you
🙏
Thank you, just got my USDOT. Thanks for sharing and helping out. May God bless you and your business.
Thanks for all that information. I was filling up wrong. An Spanish version of this video will be also a really good one for a lot of Florida Dump truck owners. Thanks again!
This is the best advice I heard so far. I'm waiting for my DOT/MC to become authorized so I've been just waiting and waiting. Now I'm going to be calling brokers and getting the carrier packet ready so once it's active I can hit the road running. Thanks for this info, definitely helps us all out!

Hello Oscar!
Wish I had watched this video prior to setting up my authority, would have saved me time.
I have told FMCSA employees that I wish all government agencies were as helpful as FMCSA... Great people to work with.
I agree. Very helpful department.
I want to thank you 250000 times (first years gross)!!! You have been a great part of me getting on my own. It’s been a year and things are going pretty good. Your video was easy to follow and the steps were clear and accurate. You are the man and thank you again💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾

Thank you brother. God bless you and yours. Wouldn't have done it this fast without you. Very detailed, everything well explained! 👌
Loved the video. Watched it and then followed it to complete my application from beginning to end. Also used some the resources. AWESOME JOB. Thanks
Thank you so much for your guidance and your teaching. The understanding of compliance and structure was a very resourceful takeaway. This video met me right where I was at and gave so much insight and understanding that I would also pass along to others looking for the same path… God bless you and thank you again

Do we click yes for freight forwarding if we plan on doing box trucking for amazon
No. You need an MC# for the most part to work with Amazon. No need to select freight fowarding
@@truckersauthority
Bud, your totally appreciated by many
And as God says in the Quran ..
"The reward for good deeds, will only be a Good reward (i.e. from God)"
With that been said.
My question is everything you mentioned also applicable for
"HOT-SHOT TRUCKING"
Meaning is the things to claim and check off the same as a semi that would use a flat-bed..?
Thank you so much! I did something wrong on my application and it showed me as a freight broker at the end. Now, I’m filling out my MCS-150 and I definitely see where I went wrong. This was awesome!
Glad it helped!
Great Information. Glad I found this video. It showed me that I can do some of the filings myself its not as difficult as I thought it would be. Thank you so much.
I was interested in becoming a independent courier using a Cargo Van, mainly dealing in logistics, such as warehouses. I was wondering if the process is still completely the same to get my DOT and MC#..I’ll be only working within the state of California and wanted to start off using a 3rd party app called DOFT..You have any suggestions or comments on that?
Hey Oscar, this is extremely helpful, Thank you. my question is what if the company is owned by 2 people do u have to put everyone name on the USDOT and MC?
You should for proper documentation. Either way, once they are added to the LLC/corporation they are tagged on the back of these other systems that can get all the owner's information. Hope that helps.
Thanks for the valuable information. This was a step-by -step guide to help others obtain their authority. God Bless You!
Everyone is keeping all these resources to themselves or charging an arm, leg and first born to give you this information -But you provided detail step by step process for free! Thank you bro! God bless you!
Thanks Phresh, appreciate it!
Can I apply for my dot even if I just filled for my LLC and hasn’t been approved yet ?
I can't seem to find the checklist 😔
TY Oscar, your video made my process so much easier than expected. U Rock!!!!!
Great video ! Was stuck on applying for my dot/mc# was a piece of cake after watching this video. Thank you !
Very helpful video....I have a question, would you recommend setting up the company early even if I don’t plan to purchase my first truck for another 6 mo or so?
I recommend to prepare in steps and take your time as this is a business decision. Get consulting and prepare are my recommendations. You can save your butt a year's worth of errors by listening to those who have done it and are willing to teach to you for a price. EVEN IF YOU ARE A DRIVE for 10+ years. Driving and running a business are two different things. Now you may hear some people say I will get the USDOT to get experience on it. Doesn't work that way, the shipper/brokers want to see active USDOT with insurance history. When they say they want 3months to-1years USDOT experience they mean active USDOT/MC Authority. You have one year from the application time before you have to pay the $300 again. Don't purchase the UCR until you ready to go because come the Jan 1st you have to pay it again as its annual payment. Assuming you are doing 6 months. Thanks for the questions Shaun!
@@truckersauthority great video question, in my case I had to do the sap program for a refusal of drug test will this have affect on me trying to get my dot and emc number?
@@truckersauthority You said that brokers want USDOT experience. How do you get this experience if the shippers and brokers will not hire you. In your video you mentioned a scenario where a company hires independent contractors but they don't maintain their vehicles which effect your DOT. Do Independent drivers not have their own? I have heard of driving under someone else's authority but I don't know if you can sign on to a company as an independent with your own authority. To sum up, how do you get the experience without being hired due to no experience.
@@justincase441 There are several companies, ex. Uber Freight. A RUclipsr by the name IMKOMOS has a video of 30 brokers for new entrants with no experience
@@iamsharondarena thank you
Hi there, sharing your knowledge is such a blessing, I've completed this form. We have truck, plates, insurance, gonna lease a trailer. What else do we need to get started? (Starting our own after lay off)
Hey Lakisha!! Let’s network and figure this out together!!
I know this is late but one thing is consulting is cheap in the long run. Find someone that is in/has been in the industry pay them for knowledge. Tell them you just want to know all the mistakes to avoid and what they would different year one. This a more of an idea to give you a theme. After that network, get on linked in, get connected with brokers and contractors, markets, whatever your niche is. Get clients, haul, network, haul, haul, network. By network i mean with brokers, shippers, and other motor carriers. If you mean permits its hard to say not knowing your situation. The basic plus any state permits if any, plates, insurance. Don't forget about KY, NY, OR, and NM with their own required road tax. You can get it at the port of entry but if you are going in there a good amount might as well as open an account with them.
@@truckersauthority do you guys actually do the application for ppl if so how much I keep having issues wit mine
