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.

Source: FMCSA Motus · Oct 18, 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.

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 Minnesota average covers 31,491 vehicle and 62,770 driver inspections of all Minnesota-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 ↗

"Share" is this company's mix of violations; the Minnesota column is the mix across all Minnesota-based carriers, so you can see which kinds of problems stand out. A high count partly reflects fleet size and how often trucks are inspected.

Questions about HAMMELL EQUIPMENT INC

What does HAMMELL EQUIPMENT INC's operating authority allow?

MC292880: Motor carrier (may haul regulated property for hire).

Which information about HAMMELL EQUIPMENT INC is old or missing?

There are too few vehicle inspections in the last 24 months to judge the out-of-service rate. The MCS-150 was last updated Jul 29, 2024, so fleet size and contact details may be out of date.

What should I verify before booking HAMMELL EQUIPMENT INC?

Confirm the authority and insurance on the Motus record for USDOT 263129. Call the company back on the phone number on file, (507) 867-4910, not a number from an email or load board message. Check that the MC number the dispatcher gave you matches MC292880, and ask the insurer for a certificate of insurance naming you as holder, with cargo coverage that fits your load.
