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. Cargo cover filed: amount not published.

How these rates are calculated
Period: Oct 19, 2024 – Oct 19, 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 Louisiana average covers 14,007 vehicle and 19,601 driver inspections of all Louisiana-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 ↗

Questions about AMERICAN MACHINERY MOVERS INC
What does AMERICAN MACHINERY MOVERS INC's operating authority allow?
MC187098: Common carrier (may haul regulated property for hire for the general public); Contract carrier (may haul regulated property for hire under continuing contracts with specific shippers).
Which information about AMERICAN MACHINERY MOVERS INC 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. There are too few vehicle inspections in the last 24 months to judge the out-of-service rate. The MCS-150 was last updated Aug 12, 2024, so fleet size and contact details may be out of date.
What should I verify before booking AMERICAN MACHINERY MOVERS INC?
Confirm the authority and insurance on the Motus record for USDOT 237453. Call the company back on the phone number on file, (504) 834-4930, not a number from an email or load board message. Check that the MC number the dispatcher gave you matches MC187098, and ask the insurer for a certificate of insurance naming you as holder, with cargo coverage that fits your load.
