Bond & insurance on file

Liability (BI&PD) pays for injury and damage to other people and property; it does not cover the freight. Cargo insurance covers the freight. FMCSA only requires cargo filings from household goods carriers and freight forwarders, so most carriers file none: ask for a cargo certificate that fits your load. No cargo cover filed with FMCSA.

How these rates are calculated

Period: Oct 18, 2024 – Oct 18, 2026. Vehicle rate = vehicle inspections with a vehicle out-of-service order ÷ vehicle inspections (levels 1, 2, 5 and 6). Driver rate uses levels 1, 2, 3 and 6. The Kentucky average covers 21,728 vehicle and 37,986 driver inspections of all Kentucky-based carriers in this period. It mixes every type of operation, so compare with care; rates based on a handful of inspections say little. FMCSA's own SMS measures are weighted differently: SMS profile ↗ · SAFER snapshot ↗

Violations in FMCSA's SMS last 24 months

24 violations counted in FMCSA's Safety Measurement System (SMS), 8 of them serious enough to put the driver or vehicle out of service.

Why is this different from the 29 violations above?

The inspections section's number counts every violation written on the inspection reports in our Oct 18, 2024 – Oct 18, 2026 window. The SMS count comes from FMCSA's own monthly SMS snapshot, which uses its own 24-month window and only the violations it scores. Both are FMCSA figures; they measure different things.

Questions about GREEN METALS INC

Is GREEN METALS INC a broker or a carrier?

GREEN METALS INC is a freight broker with no active authority to haul freight itself. It may arrange loads with authorized carriers, but should not be dispatching its own trucks under this docket. Brokers must keep $75,000 of financial security (a BMC-84 bond or BMC-85 trust fund) on file with FMCSA.

What does GREEN METALS INC's operating authority allow?

MC1610749: Broker (may arrange transportation by other authorized carriers, but may not haul the freight itself under this authority).

Which information about GREEN METALS INC is old or missing?

FMCSA has not issued a safety rating, which means no compliance review is on record, not that the carrier is unsafe. The MCS-150 was last updated Jun 26, 2024, so fleet size and contact details may be out of date.

What should I verify before booking GREEN METALS INC?

Confirm the authority and insurance on the Motus record for USDOT 1152666. Call the company back on the phone number on file, (502) 867-4566, not a number from an email or load board message. Check that the MC number the dispatcher gave you matches MC1610749, and ask for proof of the broker bond or trust fund (BMC-84/85) of $75,000.
