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.
| Type | Docket | Layer | Insurer | Coverage | Effective | Status |

| Surety Bond | MC400831 | — | AMERICAN INTER-FIDELITY EXCHANGE Policy SB5600 · 84 | — | Oct 1, 2013 | Active |
Source: Last known · FMCSA snapshot May 14, 2026. Identical filings repeated in the FMCSA data are shown once; a filing listed under two dockets is one policy, not extra coverage. Coverage is the maximum amount filed with FMCSA, not the full policy.
Last known filings. Insurance for this carrier comes from the FMCSA snapshot of May 14, 2026. Policies may have been cancelled or replaced since. Confirm current filings: Motus record ↗ and ask the insurer for a certificate naming you as holder.

Questions about FIVE STAR LOGISTICS
Is FIVE STAR LOGISTICS a broker or a carrier?
FIVE STAR LOGISTICS 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 FIVE STAR LOGISTICS's operating authority allow?
MC400831: Broker (may arrange transportation by other authorized carriers, but may not haul the freight itself under this authority).
Which information about FIVE STAR LOGISTICS is old or missing?
Operating authority is the last known status from the FMCSA snapshot of May 14, 2026, not a current check. Insurance filings are from the same May 14, 2026 snapshot. FMCSA has not issued a safety rating, which means no compliance review is on record, not that the carrier is unsafe.
What should I verify before booking FIVE STAR LOGISTICS?
Confirm the authority and insurance on the Motus record for USDOT 2227394. Call the company back on the phone number on file, (219) 476-1300, not a number from an email or load board message. Check that the MC number the dispatcher gave you matches MC400831, and ask for proof of the broker bond or trust fund (BMC-84/85) of $75,000.
