...
fleet owners, freight agents, and brokers start and run legal trucking businesses without getting lost in government paperwork.
We handle the full compliance chain under one roof. That means you call one team, pay one bill, and get every filing done correctly the first time. No bouncing between a lawyer for your LLC, a filing service for your DOT number, a different agent for your BOC-3, and a consultant for your drug and alcohol program. We do all of it.
What We Do
Our core services include business formation for both LLC and corporation structures, USDOT registration with the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration, MC number and operating authority setup, EIN registration with the IRS, BOC-3 process agent filing in all 50 states, UCR registration under the Unified Carrier Registration program, IFTA account setup and quarterly filing, MCS-150 initial filings and biennial updates, Drug and Alcohol Clearinghouse registration, full consortium enrollment for random testing pools, ELD device setup, dash cam installation, fuel card programs, and freight factoring services. For carriers who want paperwork handled all year, we also offer monthly back office compliance support so nothing ever slips through the cracks.
Who We Serve
We work with new owner operators filing their first DOT number, experienced drivers leaving a company to go independent, small fleets managing compliance in-house, and freight agents or brokers who need entity formation and FMCSA filings completed correctly the first time. We serve clients in all 50 states, with a strong client base in Florida, Texas, California, Illinois, Georgia, and other high-trucking markets.
Why Truckers Choose Us
Speed matters in this industry. A missed MCS-150 biennial update can deactivate your USDOT number. A missed BOC-3 filing can block your operating authority from ever going active. A late IFTA filing can trigger penalties that eat into thin margins. We catch these gaps before they cost you a load, a week, or an entire season of hauling.
Our pricing is transparent. We do not hide government filing fees inside service costs, and you get a full breakdown before we submit anything. Most USDOT registrations are processed within 1 to 2 business days. MC numbers typically activate in 21 to 25 days once the mandatory FMCSA waiting period is complete. LLC formation can be done the same day in most states.
We speak plain English, not government jargon. When you call us, you get someone who understands the difference between a common carrier and a contract carrier, who knows why your MC number is still inactive after three weeks, and who can tell you exactly what to do about a CSA score that is hurting your insurance rates.
Our Standard
A driver should be able to call us on Monday and have a compliant, legal trucking business running by the end of the week. That is the bar we hold ourselves to on every single client.
