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 Arizona average covers 53,982 vehicle and 81,935 driver inspections of all Arizona-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 Arizona column is the mix across all Arizona-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 KENT-MERIDIAN DISPOSAL COMPANY

What does KENT-MERIDIAN DISPOSAL COMPANY's operating authority allow?

FMCSA records show no active operating authority for KENT-MERIDIAN DISPOSAL COMPANY (MC145415), so it may not haul regulated interstate freight for hire or broker loads under these dockets.

Which information about KENT-MERIDIAN DISPOSAL COMPANY 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. 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 KENT-MERIDIAN DISPOSAL COMPANY?

Confirm the authority and insurance on the Motus record for USDOT 265361. Call the company back on the phone number on file, (480) 627-2700, not a number from an email or load board message. Check that the MC number the dispatcher gave you matches MC145415, and ask the insurer for a certificate of insurance naming you as holder, with cargo coverage that fits your load.

Other companies using (480) 627-2700

A shared number is common for related companies, dispatch services and family businesses. It is not proof of fraud, but it is worth knowing which company you are dealing with.
